Malama Pupukea Waimea

Join us to protect the Pūpūkea-Waimea Marine Life Conservation District (MLCD). Hashtag your Instagram photos to #malamapupukeawaimea

Visit our outreach tent every Saturday (weather permitting) at Shark's Cove.

Our primary objectives:

Objective 1: To document, report, and reduce poaching.

Objective 2: To increase the knowledge of and support for the ecological values, rules, traditional and cultural importance, and user impacts on the Pūpūkea and Waimea ahupua'a—focusing on the MLCD—among the community, youth, visitors, and users.

Objective 3: To discover what the pollution threats are, if any, and then create a plan to address them.

Objective 4: To create a system of sustainable financial and institutional mechanisms that will support the activities of the Hui Mālama o Pūpūkea-Waimea in the long term.

Objective 5: To protect and strengthen the laws and policies that created the MLCD and that support Hawaii marine managed areas.
