The Hōkūleʻa waka returned to New Zealand after 40 years, marking a cultural milestone in reviving Polynesian navigation.
The Hawaiian waka Hōkūleʻa has returned to Waitangi, New Zealand, 40 years after its 1985 arrival that helped revive Māori ocean voyaging traditions.
Part of a four-year, 80,000km global voyage, the visit marks a cultural milestone, honoring ancestral navigation knowledge and strengthening Polynesian ties.
The journey, which includes stops across the Pacific, aims to promote cultural awareness and ocean stewardship.
The arrival follows a challenging open-ocean leg with limited visibility, and the crew will stay in Aotearoa until May, engaging in community events and preparing for the next leg starting in April.
