The Hawaiian canoe, also known as the wa’a kaulua, is a traditional double-hulled canoe that was used by the ancient Hawaiians for transportation, fishing, and trade. These canoes were constructed using a variety of materials, including koa wood, wiliwili wood, and ‘iako (outrigger poles) made from a specific type of coconut palm.

The Hawaiian canoe was an important part of Hawaiian culture and history, and many traditional practices and customs were associated with the construction and use of these canoes. The construction of a canoe was a sacred process, and it was believed that the spirit of the tree from which the canoe was made would inhabit the vessel and guide it through the water.
