Most fish were cultivated in large fishponds or caught near shore in shallow waters and reefs. [10] Fishing and fish caught beyond the reef in the deep sea were reserved for chiefs according to the kapu system which regulated the way of life in Ancient Hawaii. [11] Poke began as cut-offs from catch to serve as a snack.

At least 33 species of coral, 53 species of subtidal invertebrate, and 75 species of fish (17 endemic) were found.
