Ho’omaluhia Botanical Gardens
Interested in taking your toddler fishing?! I was. It was cute for about 30 seconds, then she was over it. The fish were already full once we arrived. Oh, and it’s catch and release of course.
What I do recommend is feeding the fish and ducks… This was a much better alternative! The girls loved being outside in God’s beautiful creation, and so did we (aside from the humidity). And boy were there FISH!
I packed a yummy lunch, lots of water, sunscreen, bug spray, beach mat and our jogging stroller. Then we were off to Kaneohe!
You’re only allowed to fish on the weekends on the far side of the lake. It’s about a 20 minute walk from the visitor’s center. Check in with the staff and you can rent bamboo poles for free! Just bring plenty of white bread for feeding the fish and ducks. Enjoy the path and beautiful foliage, then you’re off…
If you want to fish, you’ll head down towards the water and follow the signs to the lake. Keep left, cross the bridge and you’ll see the path.
If you don’t care about fishing, I still recommend feeding the ducks and fish. Choose a nice cool spot under a tree or snag a picnic table to eat your tasty lunch. Can you tell we’re ready for football season?!
Watch out for the wild boars. There were three roaming around while we were there. No sign of mama though, which made me a little leery. People were feeding them, but I don’t recommend it!
Lily loved this adventure… especially her time with daddy 
Overall, a wonderful family spot. Happy Trails! Anyone have fun stories to share about fishing with your toddler?! I’d love to hear from you.
