Surfing began here, in the pristine waters of Hawaii, where ancient Polynesians carved boards from koa and rode waves as an act of skill and spirit. From the aliʻi who mastered heʻe nalu to Duke Kahanamoku’s golden era and beyond, this is a history of courage, culture, and connection.
Hawaii.surf launched April 20, 2025, bringing you stories, artifacts, and the aloha of the ocean and these islands. Our goal is to give back to the community and history that has given us all so much.
