Pacific Aquaculture and Coastal Resources Center

The Pacific Aquaculture and Coastal Resources Center

We’re serious about promoting sustainable seafood production.

We’re conducting research, training, and outreach: here on Hawai‘i Island and throughout the Pacific.

We’re giving special attention to fish we put in our aquariums – like the Hawaiian cleaner wrasse – and fish we put on our tables, like moi, aholehole, and oysters.

We’re the Pacific Aquaculture and Coastal Resources Center at UH Hilo, home of the largest workforce training program in the region, giving students hands-on experience for careers in aquacultures and fisheries.

Your gift empowers our students, expands our knowledge, sustains our ocean wildlife, and protects the island life we all cherish. Thank you!
