Paddling

The Hawaiians arrived in Hawaii in outrigger canoes (OCs) around 200AD. Throughout their history OCs remained essential to the Hawaiians for fishing, travel, sport and war.  Hei hei wa’a, or canoe racing, was an immensely popular sport with the chiefs. Later, and under the influence of the missionaries, Queen Ka’ahumanu banned the races (there was betting involved!) and it wasn’t until King Kalakaua that races were brought back in 1875. Todays paddling traditions are a tribute to the ancient Hawaiians and their way of life.
