Outrigger Canoe Club celebrated their '100th Club Luau' in 2022
One of the world’s most exclusive clubs that we never hear about is exactly what you would think it is.
Born in Waikiki in 1890, Kahanamoku is described by those who know his story as an athlete the likes of which the world will never see it again – simultaneously the Kelly Slater and Michael Phelps of his time. He is now celebrated as the cornerstone of the club – something that has been achieved with none of the ugly past being buried.
It’s no secret that you need an insider to have any real hope of getting in – and it is not uncommon that prospective members are “black-balled” if the club’s hierarchy have any concerns about prospective members not adhering to the club’s ethos which is described as “a place where good fellowship and aloha prevail and where the sports of old Hawaii shall always have a home”.
Whether you are a longboarder, a shortboarder, experienced, a novice, or a first-timer, Waikiki has a number of breaks that suit all abilities.
