Presented by Molokai `Ohana Surf Club
The third annual Molokai Holokai isn’t just another downwind race for stand up paddlers. It’s an opportunity to discover one of Hawaii’s fastest, and least known, down-winders. It’s also a chance to give back to the island which has for decades, served as an integral location for major water-sports events.
The Kamalo run is 8.5 miles of pure fun. Tradewinds are funneled through the Pailolo Channel creating consistently strong winds that are almost always directly at your back. Add in pristine water, breath-taking multi-island views and friendly people, and you’ve got an unforgettable event.
The Molokai Holokai is held during Memorial Day weekend giving you and the `ohana the perfect excuse to visit the Friendly Isle.
If you’re coming from outer islands, travel is very easy. Click here for more info.
Molokai `Ohana Surf Club is a non-profit whose mission is to provide Molokai youth and young adults with healthy and safe opportunities through surfing and water sports while perpetuating the Hawaiian values of malama `aina, malama ke kai, and aloha `ohana.
