What the Conservancy Has Done/Is Doing
In 1987, The Nature Conservancy purchased the area now known as Pelekunu Preserve principally from Molokai Ranch, Ltd. Pelekunu Preserve is managed in partnership with the State Department of Land & Natural Resources through the Natural Area Partnership Program.
Pelekunu Preserve is not open to the public due to its remote, rugged location.
