Huilua Loko i\u02bba (Fishpond), in Kahana Bay on the Island of Oahu, illustrates the unique aquafarming practices of the Hawaiian people. Out of the estimated 97 fishponds once on the coast of Oahu, Huilua is one of only six that still exists. The Huilua Fishpond had a 500-foot rock seawall attached to the shoreline that encircled 7 acres of Kahana Bay near the mouth of Kahana Stream. Huilua has been impacted by a changing landscape affecting stream flow, building sediment in the fish pond and at the river mouth abutting the fish pond, altering wave interaction on the walls, and currents that filter into the pond. Come learn about the traditional uses of the loko i\u02bba by Kahana \u02bbohana, and k\u014dkua as they remove invasive species, sand, silt and debris that enter the pond.<\/p>","excerpt":"","slug":"huilua-fishpond-work-days-at-%ca%bbahupua%ca%bba-o-kahana-state-park-2","image":{"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua.jpg","id":6898,"extension":"jpg","width":1414,"height":2000,"filesize":385654,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":212,"height":300,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":18208,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-212x300.jpg"},"large":{"width":724,"height":1024,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":146107,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-724x1024.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"width":150,"height":150,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":7354,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-150x150.jpg"},"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":1086,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":161386,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-768x1086.jpg"},"1536x1536":{"width":1086,"height":1536,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":279604,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-1086x1536.jpg"},"featured-slider-large":{"width":1200,"height":400,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":96509,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-1200x400.jpg"},"featured-image-parkhike":{"width":1022,"height":260,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":60440,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-1022x260.jpg"},"featured-slider":{"width":638,"height":319,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":26024,"url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/files\/2023\/09\/KahanaHuilua-638x319.jpg"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2026-04-11 09:00:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"04","day":"11","hour":"09","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2026-04-11 12:00:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"04","day":"11","hour":"12","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2026-04-11 19:00:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"04","day":"11","hour":"19","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2026-04-11 22:00:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2026","month":"04","day":"11","hour":"22","minutes":"00","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"Pacific\/Honolulu","timezone_abbr":"HST","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"$","currency_code":"USD","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"","show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Volunteer","slug":"volunteer","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":24,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":241,"filter":"raw","id":23,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/23","collection":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":{"id":6043,"author":"209","status":"publish","date":"2022-06-29 14:30:57","date_utc":"2022-06-30 00:30:57","modified":"2022-06-29 14:30:57","modified_utc":"2022-06-30 00:30:57","url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/venue\/%ca%bbahupua%ca%bba-%ca%bbo-kahana-state-park\/","venue":"\u02bbAhupua\u02bba \u02bbo Kahana State Park","slug":"%ca%bbahupua%ca%bba-%ca%bbo-kahana-state-park","country":"United States","json_ld":{"@type":"Place","name":"\u02bbAhupua\u02bba \u02bbo Kahana State Park","description":"","url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/venue\/%ca%bbahupua%ca%bba-%ca%bbo-kahana-state-park\/","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressCountry":"United States"},"telephone":"","sameAs":""},"show_map":true,"show_map_link":true,"global_id":"dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp?id=6043","global_id_lineage":["dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp?id=6043"]},"organizer":[{"id":6901,"author":"209","status":"publish","date":"2023-09-22 16:04:01","date_utc":"2023-09-23 02:04:01","modified":"2023-09-22 16:04:01","modified_utc":"2023-09-23 02:04:01","url":"https:\/\/dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp\/organizer\/ho%ca%bbala-%ca%bbaina-kupono-2\/","organizer":"Ho\u02bb\u0101la \u02bb\u0100ina K\u016bpono","slug":"ho%ca%bbala-%ca%bbaina-kupono-2","email":"info@hoalaainakupono.org","json_ld":{"@type":"Person","name":"Ho\u02bb\u0101la \u02bb\u0100ina K\u016bpono","description":"","url":"","telephone":"","email":"info@hoalaainakupono.org","sameAs":""},"global_id":"dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp?id=6901","global_id_lineage":["dlnr.hawaii.gov\/dsp?id=6901"]}],"custom_fields":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Huilua Fishpond Work Days at \u02bbAhupua\u02bba O Kahana State Park","description":"<p>Huilua Loko i\u02bba (Fishpond), in Kahana Bay on the Island of Oahu, illustrates the unique aquafarming practices of the Hawaiian people.
