Natural History at Waikoloa Beach Resort
Ku’uali’i and Kahapapa Fishponds
Two historic fishponds near A-Bay Beach that were part of a large complex of fish ponds tended for generations by family groups.
Petroglyphs

Anchialine Ponds
Brackish water pools in depressions and lava tubes that exhibit tidal fluctuation despite being some distance from the sea. This is because of their connect to the groundwater movement and sea through the porous lava. Fed by the ocean and freshwater springs, various small fish, crustaceans, mollusks and opae’ula (tiny red shrimps) make these ponds their home.
Ala Kahakai
Meaning “trail by the sea”, part of this 175-mile ancient pathway runs along the coastline of the Waikoloa Beach Resort. The Ala Kahakai National Historic Trails links communities, temples, fishing spots along the west coast of the Big Island. This connects to a network of several trails, which can be accessible from A-Bay shoreline.
