Polynesian Canoe Day Sail in Oahu booking from $200.00

Polynesian Canoe Day Sail

Overview

Kamoauli is a locally owned, all-wood, double-hulled, traditional Polynesian canoe (wa’a kaulua) offering a one-of-a-kind native Hawaiian cultural and educational experience. Come sail along the beautiful Waikiki coastline and become immersed in the stories and history of place (Mo‘olelo) reflected through the land (ʻāina) and ocean (moana) aboard a classroom on the sea. Our cultural practitioner and crew involve guests in hands on activities, using native materials to make food, clothing, tools, and other traditional items. Ask questions, explore the deck, nets and hulls, take part in poi (taro) pounding or just relax and enjoy. 'Ukulele music and traditional chants ('oli) with locally-sourced traditional food and drinks are all part of this unique experience.

*Note: Due to COVID restrictions, all sails can only be booked as a private single group charter, with a minimum of one and a maximum of six passengers per charter. All ages welcome, minors must be accompanied by an adult.

This was my fourth trip to Hawaii and by far my favorite excursion ever. We boarded with just 3 other guests and had a lovely time viewing the gorgeous coastline, learning about the rich Hawaiian culture and customs, and even participating in creating some music together. The crew was so warm and welcoming. They were also so kind to our son, letting him help steer and hoist the sail, he loved it. Such an unforgettable experience and could not recommend it more.

By far the best excursion of the week! Great for families: fun with an education experience on Hawaiian culture. We tried native Hawaiian foods, played Hawaiian instruments, learned the Hula and enjoyed the beautiful weather and ocean. Even saw a few turtles on the trip! Myself, my partner and my two kids had an awesome time: if we could give MORE STARS, we would!

My boyfriend and I had an incredible sailing experience! The captain and crew were so kind, welcoming and knowledgeable. We learned quite a bit about Hawaiian history and culture, and we loved the live music. The food was amazing too- best poke we've had in Hawaii! This was a really special experience which we would recommend to anyone traveling to Oahu.
