Ocean-goers of all ages and skill levels are invited to the 15th Annual Kualoa & Hakipu’u Canoe Fest happening on Saturday, March 9, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
For the first time in two years, the Hakipu u Canoe Festival is returning to Kualoa Regional Park. The 12th Annual Kualoa/Hakipu‘u Canoe Festival runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The festival highlights and honors the Native Hawaiian voyaging tradition with paddling and sailing activities, navigation lessons and education booths. The Honolulu Department of Parks and Recreation says the festival will not have the famed Hōkūleʻa vessel offshore, but there will be plenty of other ocean activities to enjoy.
