Our canoe Hōkūleʻa and our escort vessel Gershon II have sailed in to Maputo, Mozambique.

Hōkūleʻa crew sighted land from the deck of the canoe today, an historic first glimpse of the African coast.

Traversing the Mozambique Channel, Hōkūleʻa catches some wind to bring her closer to Africa.

In the heart of the Mozambique Channel, Hōkūleʻa nears the African continent as strong weather approaches.

Strong weather conditions and damage to Hōkūleʻa forces a change in course past Madagascar.

In contrast to its rich biodiversity and endemism, Madagascar faces many threats to its natural environment. Fortunately, several government and non-government groups are committed to improving the wellbeing of all those who call the island home.

Hōkūleʻa voyages closer to Madagascar, an opportunity to celebrate our global family and oceanic traditions.
