COVID-19 Operations

The National Park Service (NPS) is continuing to work with federal, state, and local public health authorities to closely monitor the current COVID-19 pandemic. Based on guidance from the White House, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and state and local public health authorities, access to the park is as follows:

Park Operations (update November, 2022):

• Visitor Center open 7 days a week from 830-4pm including restroom facilities and parking lot.

• Hawaii Pacific Parks Association Bookstore open 9am-4pm.

Masks in Parks

Currently the County of Hawaii has low transmission rates according to the CDC. The Governor of the State of Hawaii is not renewing the Mask Mandate but please note it is reccommended to wear a mask when in an enclosed area (such as the bookstore and bathrooms). If you need a mask due to health conditions indoors or outdoors, or you don't feel comfortable without one, please wear a mask.

Open:

• All hiking trails
• Beach and shoreline areas
• Portable restroom facilities at Aiopiʻo and Kaloko Fishpond (no water available).
• Kaloko fishpond access road open from 8am-5pm.

When recreating, please follow local area health orders, practice Leave No Trace principles, and avoid crowding and high-risk outdoor activities.

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.
