The wa`a (canoe) history of the ahupua`a of Kailua has been celebrated since time immemorial.  The first known accounts of voyagers in Kailua come from mo`olelo (stories) like the 11th century travels of Kauluakalana and Paumakua as well as the scene from the Epic Hi`iakaikapoliopele where Hi`iaka marvels at seeing a koa forest offshore at Oneawa, but is really referring to a multitude of koa canoes. Kailua has a long history of wa`a tradition.  Kailua Canoe Club honors this tradition by hosting the annual King Kamehameha Day Regatta in Kailua at the `ili of Kawailoa.  Read more on the OHCRA website
