About the Outrigger:
Founded at a critical time when Hawaiian water sports faced extinction, the Outrigger Canoe Club emerged in 1908, aiming to preserve and promote ancient activities like surfing and outrigger canoeing. Initially situated on prime beachfront land in Waikiki, the club weathered challenges and relocation to its Diamond Head location in 1963. Notable for its iconic clubhouse the Outrigger has thrived over nearly 100 years. From its humble grass houses to the modern facility, the club has been a hub for water sports enthusiasts worldwide, hosting events like the 4th of July Walter Macfarlane Regatta and even contributing to the birth of beach volleyball. Today, with a membership exceeding 4000, the Outrigger Canoe Club remains a symbol of aloha and a dedicated custodian of Hawaiian aquatic traditions. The club's commitment to its original mission endures - “Let this be a place where man may commune with sun and sand and sea, where good fellowship and aloha prevail and where sports of old Hawai’i shall always have a home.”
