The legendary voyaging canoe Hokulea returns home on 6/17/2017 to Magic Island Beach Park in Hawaii. After being away 36 months, sailing approximately 40,000 nautical miles, and sharing stories, hope and inspiration with more than 100,000 people, the Hokulea returns to Hawaii on June 17 with a homecoming ceremony. The welcoming celebration will include the arrival of both the Hikianalia and Hokulea canoes, a kalii rite (spear hurling ritual) conducted by Hale Mua, followed by a formal ceremony.
