This lagoon separates the two runways at PHNL reserved for seaplanes.

Ke‘ehi Lagoon, 6 miles NW of Diamond Head is triangular in shape and is fronted by coral reefs. The cuts through the lagoon are former seaplane landing areas. Kalihi Channel, previously mentioned, cuts through the SE part of the lagoon. A privately dredged channel branches NW from Kalihi Channel to a small-boat harbor and a barge harbor and turning basin on the E side of the landing areas. In 2009, the controlling depth was 18 feet in the channel to the turning basin; thence in 13 feet was in the basin. The barge channel is marked by a private 334° lighted range.
