Happy Discoverers' Day!

In 1971, Hawaii officially designated the second Monday in October as Discoverers' Day. This holiday has its roots in the rich historical narrative of the Hawaiian Islands. It was created to pay homage to the Polynesian navigators who embarked on remarkable voyages between 300 and 600 AD, ultimately discovering and settling Hawaii's breathtaking islands. Discoverers' Day recognizes the extraordinary courage and seafaring skills of these early explorers. It stands as a testament to Hawaii's deep cultural heritage, a reminder of the islands' unique history, and celebrates the enduring spirit of discovery. Hauʻoli lā ʻike!
