TROPICAL ENERGY OCEAN GAMES Presented by JEEP

A Celebration of the Makahiki

Shortboard, Longboard, Stand Up Paddle, Windsurf, Kitesurf, Surf Canoe, Tandem Surf

 

For centuries, the Makahiki season was a time of peace and agricultural fertility for Hawaii, a time when Hawaiians indulged in games, music and festivities. This spirit lives on in Hawaii, with its North Facing shores being buffeted with big waves throughout this time (November to February), allowing the traditional art of riding waves to live on as an inherent part of the culture.

 

The Ocean Games are not only a means of celebrating this special time, but also a way to bring together the most talented and respected watermen in the world for a festival that combines old with new and sport with music and art, for a celebration of Ocean culture, something that the Hawaiian people have being doing for centuries. Get ready for the most prolific ocean sports experience imaginable.
