Oahu HI Tranquility....by Reid Callaway
Kailua Outrigger Canoes Lanikai Beach Sunrise Seascape Art

Notice the outrigger canoes or wa'a in Hawaiian on the shore. The clouds hid the suns strong rays slightly so this image was possible. I tried to put into this Lanikai Beach scene, as many interesting parts for your eyes to feast upon as possible. Buy this image for some you love!

Lanikai Beach is located in Lanikai, a community in the town of Kailua and on the windward coast of Oahu, Hawaii. The name Lanikai means "heavenly sea." This small ½ mile strip of beach is consistently ranked among the best beaches in the world. Adjacent to Lanikai Beach is a primarily upper-class residential area because of this it is accessible through public beach access paths.

The outrigger canoe (Hawaiian: wa'a; Filipino and Indonesian: bangka; Maori: waka ama; Tahitian and Samoan:va'a) is a type of canoe featuring one or more lateral support floats known as outriggers, which are fastened to one or both sides of the main hull. Smaller canoes often employ a single outrigger on the port side, while larger canoes may employ a single outrigger, double outrigger, or double hull configuration. The sailing canoes are an important part of the Polynesian heritage and are raced and sailed here in Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa and by the Maori of New Zealand.
