Molii Fishpond, Ancient fishpond in Honolulu County, United States

Molii Fishpond stretches over 125 acres along Kaneohe Bay, featuring a 4,000-foot stone wall that separates the pond from the ocean waters.

Native Hawaiians constructed this fish cultivation system over 800 years ago, incorporating sophisticated engineering methods to create sustainable food sources.

The site demonstrates traditional Hawaiian aquaculture practices through its stone wall construction and water management system with five original sluice gates.

The fishpond continues its original function by supporting the cultivation of fish species such as tilapia, mullet, and moi, along with modern oyster farming.

The fishpond's wall construction displays precise stone placement techniques, using coral and small stones to fill gaps between larger rocks.
