The work to revive an ancient Hawaiian fishpond has begun in waters off South Maui.

When it’s done in a year or so, the fishpond called Ko’ie’ie Loko I’a will provide a glimpse of how people in old Hawaii thrived by what they harvested from the ocean.

The Ko’ie’ie fishpond, which is listed as a National Historic Preservation Site, sits off Kalepolepo Park on South Kihei Road between the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary and the Menehune Shores condominium.
