Hokuleʻa is home! Mahalo nui to Matson for taking such great care of her and providing this safe option for her journey to Hawaiʻi while El Nino has such a firm grip on our climate.

Sound up and watch the video below to come along on Hokuleʻaʻs journey Thursday morning from Matson ship to her home shore at Sand Island, next to her sister Hikianalia – back together again.

Mahalo Justyn Ah Chong for your beautiful storytelling.

Our hearts are full of gratitude for the children of Kūlaniākea Pre-school and the many others who embraced Hōkūleʻa so warmly upon her return home. Mahalo, mahalo, mahalo.
