Kaloko Fishpond

At the northern end of Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park, this fishpond is especially fascinating because its massive rock retaining wall has been rebuilt in the traditional way – dry stacking, with no mortar or shaping of the rocks – so it can once again be fished as it was in ages past. Some speculate that the bones of Kamehameha the Great were secretly buried in a cave nearby.
