Hale Huaka‘i Ocean Activity Center

Located steps away from Kaanapali Beach Hotel's sunny shore, Hale Huakai, the ocean activities center, brings Hawaiian culture to popular beach activities such as stand up paddle boarding, snorkeling, conch shell blowing and more! "Hale Huakai is simply a means of extending the character of Kaanapali Beach Hotel– its genuine aloha and true Hawaiian hospitality – out onto the beach and into the ocean. It allows us to provide our guests with truly memorable and safe ocean experiences, led by our Beach Alakai, who are each highly experienced Maui watermen. We also accept the kuleana – both privilege and responsibility – of being stewards of our culture, our ocean, and all of its many creatures,” - Iokepa Nae`ole, Manager of Hale Huakai. Hale Huakai offers guests the chance to go beyond their traditional beach activity experience through complimentary and paid offerings, dedicated to providing an authentic Hawaiian presentation of water sports and oceanside living. Each guest who visits the Hale Huakai will come away with a true understanding of how the Hawaiians traditionally immersed themselves within their surrounding environment.
