Outrigger Canoe
This complimentary programme, offered four times daily, Monday through Friday, will introduce you to Hawaiian-style paddling techniques and terms. On the ocean, you'll get to practice your canoeing skills while enjoying the wala'au (talking story) provided by the guides, the Resort's championship paddling team. They'll share their thoughts about the neighbouring islands and the surrounding environment at two or three stops during the outing.
Board an outrigger canoe and be transported through history. The Four Seasons outrigger canoe programme will take you on a journey through the magnificent reef system surrounding Wailea Beach and the Resort. You'll have a chance to spot Hawaiian green sea turtles, various reef fish, manta rays and, during the season, Pacific humpback whales. You'll also learn the historical and cultural significance of the outrigger canoe, used by the first Hawaiians, who ventured to the islands from Tahiti.
