Hui Nalu, the “Club of the Waves”, was founded in 1908 by Duke Kahanamoku, Knute Cottrell and Ken Winter. Based at the Moana Hotel in Waikiki, swimming was the primary activity of the dub in the early years. Club members also enjoyed surfing, canoe paddling and kanikapila. The summer regatta season involves age group and open races in lengths from 1/4 to 1-1/2 miles. Hui Nalu Canoe Club also sponsors a pre-season race in Maunalua Bay dedicated to former head coach Kala Kukea, as well as a regular season regatta to honor former coach John D. Kaupiko. Long distance racing is limited to the adult divisions with occasional exceptions.

Kōkua in action. 🤙

So awesome to see our Hui Nalu members come out on their own free time to make sure our waʻa are safe and sound as Hurricane Lala approaches.

Mahalo to everyone who stepped up to secure our fleet. Hope everyone stays safe and has their homes and ʻohana secured too.

Pretty amazing paddling community we have at Hui Nalu. We love Hui Nalu! ❤️
