Abstract: |
Ke'e Lagoon is a popular Kauai destination for tourist and resident beach-goers and snorkelers. It is part of the Haena State Park, and is located at the end of Route 56 in Haena, Kauai. The area has become extremely popular with visiting tourists in the last few years, and this large amount of usage has prompted this study.

The surveys were performed in the lagoon and on the reef flat on various days in June to August, 1999 by reputable coral reef and reef fish experts. |
