James Campbell National Wildlife Refuge

Four miles beyond Kahuku, heading towards Turtle Bay Resort, James Campbell National Wildlife Refuge encompasses a rare freshwater wetland that provides habitat for Hawaii's four endangered waterbirds - the Hawaiian coot, the Hawaiian stilt, the Hawaiian duck and the Hawaiian moor hen. During stilt nesting season, normally mid-February to October, the refuge is off-limits to visitors. The rest of the year, it can only be visited on a guided tour.

Guided tours are provided by refuge staff (at 16:00 every Thursday, 09:00 on the first two Saturdays of the month and 15:30 on the remaining Saturdays of the month from October 1 to February 15). Tours are free, but reservations are required and can be made by calling the refuge itself.
