Established in 1978 for the preservation, protection and interpretation of traditional native Hawaiian activities and culture, Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park is an 1160-acre park full of incredible cultural and historical significance. It is the site of an ancient Hawaiian settlement, which encompasses portions of four different ahupua'a, or traditional sea to mountain land divisions. Resources include fishponds, kahua (house site platforms), ki'i pohaku (petroglyphs), holua (stone slide), and heiau (religious site).

Kaloko-Honokohau also offers some exceptional natural and scenic attractions. The park's ponds are unique wetlands offering not only rare breeding habitat for endangered coots and stilts, and the wetlands are home to a variety of wintering birds.  The park has an excellent and accessible marine reef (used daily by several dive boat operators) and with easy shoreline access to beaches, tide pools, unusual alkaline pools, and a fine sample of Hawaii's scenic Kona Coast.  The historic Ala Kahakai National Historic Trail traverses the park.
