Native Hawaiians would use this fish trap to trap and catch fish during low tide. Fish would enter the fish trap through an opening in the trap or over the submerged walls during high tide. At low tie, the fish could not escape because their entrance was gone. The fish were then stored in walled sections of the trap until needed.

This fishpond was created by constructing a dry stacked lava rock seawall that isolated the bay from the sea. To control the flow of water between the pond and the sea they used a makahua (sluice gates) and designed an angled seawall to diffuse the massive energy created by ocean waves. Once the seawall diffused and absorbed the energy, water was still able to circulate between the ocean and pond due to the porous nature of the lava rocks. This fishpond's seawall was 30-40ft wide and 6.5ft high stretching 250 yards. Storms in the 1950's destroyed the wall.

One thing that made Kaloka perfrect for settling was its location on the water. This allowed ancient Hawaiians to make fishponds providing them with a surplus of food. There were two main fishponds named Kaloka and Aimakapa. There was also the 'Ai'opio Fishtrap
