Kealia Pond

Kihei, HI

Kealia Pond National Wildlife Refuge, part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, serves as a sanctuary for numerous native and endemic species of the Hawaiian Islands. The refuge is currently monitoring a unique natural phenomenon of pink water caused by purple sulfur bacteria, which play a crucial role in nutrient cycling in the environment.

Visitors are encouraged to enjoy this natural spectacle from a safe distance and are advised not to enter the water or consume fish from it. The refuge's seasonal conditions make it a notable destination for those interested in observing and learning about the diverse wildlife and ecosystems of Hawaii.
