Hōkūleʻa is a traditional Polynesian voyaging canoe that symbolizes the revival of ancient Hawaiian navigation techniques. Launched in 1975, it was designed to sail without modern instruments, relying instead on the stars, ocean currents, and bird behavior to guide its way across the Pacific Ocean. The canoe has played a crucial role in reconnecting Hawaiians with their cultural heritage and has inspired a new generation of navigators. Hōkūleʻa has completed numerous voyages, including a notable journey around the world, showcasing the importance of sustainability and the preservation of indigenous knowledge.
