Kahaluʻu is a wahi pana, a sacred and storied place, and is known as ʻāina lei aliʻi, a land adorned by the chiefs.

Learn about what has made Kahaluʻu so special for generations, listen to moʻolelo (stories) about how the practice of kilo (intentional observation) has guided our stewardship efforts at the bay, and hear how to join our ReefTeach ‘ohana and become a volunteer!

The Kohala Center’s ReefTeach program is a community-driven stewardship effort aimed at increasing the resiliency of the coastal ecosystem at Kahaluʻu through education, outreach, research, and advocacy.

Mahalo nui to the Friends of the Libraries, Kona (F.O.L.K.) for sponsoring this event!
