Native Hawaiian Plant Coastal Restoration with Mālama Pūpūkea-Waimea

ALOHA!!

Make a real difference for Hawaiʻi's ocean ecosystem by joining monthly volunteer work days with Mālama Pūpūkea-Waimea. This hands-on conservation experience focuses on protecting coral reefs and our island's shorelines through native plant restoration at the beautiful Kapo'o (Sharks Cove) area.

Participants will help remove invasive weeds, plant native coastal species, maintain trails and protective borders, replace fencing and signage, and clean up the restoration site. All while learning why healthy coral reefs matter—they provide marine habitats, food sources, wave breaks, and natural shoreline protection for the islands.
