Additional mask requirements for fully vaccinated visitors vary by park based on local conditions. Please recreate responsibly.

Consistent with CDC guidance regarding areas of substantial or high transmission, visitors to Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park, regardless of vaccination status, are required to wear a mask inside all park buildings. Additional public health measures are in place across the service, from capacity limits to one-way trails, or even temporary closures in response to local conditions.

The CDC has offered guidance to help people recreating in parks and open spaces prevent the spread of infectious diseases. We will continue to monitor all park functions to ensure that visitors adhere to CDC guidance for mitigating risks associated with the transmission of COVID-19 and take any additional steps necessary to protect public health.
