A family, three canoes, and a shoreline.

We started Aliʻi Maui with three outrigger canoes and a conviction: visitors to Kāʻanapali should be able to touch this culture, not just look at it from a catamaran.

Seven years later we are still a family operation. The people who teach you to paddle are the same people who answer the phone. Our crew are experienced, qualified paddlers who grew up in these waters.

Kāʻanapali was home to Kahekili, the great chief of Maui. Our ancestors had no writing; they kept their history in chants and legends and passed it from one canoe to the next. That's what we're doing. Hoʻolohe, listen, and you'll hear it in the wind.
