About Kaena Point
Oahu's westernmost coastal ecosystem protected within a pioneering predator-proof fence. Hawaiian monk seals haul out on beaches, Laysan albatrosses nest, and native coastal plants thrive. The 59-acre fenced area represents the most successful predator exclusion project in the US.
