Midway Atoll National Wildlife Refuge and Battle of Midway National Memorial, managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, is currently closed to public visitation. Located on the far northern end of the Hawaiian archipelago, Midway Atoll is located within the nation’s largest conservation area, the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument. It is one the oldest atoll formations in the world that provides nesting habitat for millions of seabirds and is a touchstone for one of the most significant naval battles in our human history.
