The Hawai’i to Tahiti leg was the fastest crossing ever of this ancestral pathway. The second leg, equally amazing, would take the waʻa and her crew to 11 different ports, over 44 days.

Worldwide Voyage Tracking Map

Track Hōkūle`a and Hikianalia as they voyage around the world. The green line is the reference course designed by the navigators for reaching the destination from the departure point, given the capabilities of the vessel and the winds, currents, and weather conditions anticipated along the way. The yellow line tracks the progress of Hokulea while the red line follows Hikianalia. For more information on the PVS voyaging fleet, click here.
