E Komo Mai !

Wakinikona is a non-profit club based in Seattle, Washington, dedicated to the promotion and preservation of Hawaiian culture. Founded in 1962, Wakinikona has been actively involved in the Pacific Northwest through various festivals, our Hui Wa’a Canoe team and our Wakinikona Hawaiian Club potluck gatherings that are held monthly. We invite you to join our Facebook group & follow our Twitter feed to learn about opportunities to engage in Hawaiian history and culture. We have a dedicated membership possessing extensive knowledge and grasp of Hawaiian language, legends, customs song and history. 

“Komo mai kau mapuna hoe”– Hawaiian proverb meaning “dip your paddle in!”
