Mission: Our mission is to educate all ocean users - visitors and residents including Locals and Military about: 1) ocean user safety to protect them against ocean-related serious injury or death, and 2) conservation and stewardship to protect the resources they enjoy, e.g. the ocean, reef, and offshore islands. 3) provide Free Keiki ocean safety training and watersports clinics, and ocean safety presentations in schools
Results: Pa’ani Wai Hawaii was formed to educate the public about ocean user safety, conservation and stewardship of the ocean, reefs and offshore islands. We want to ensure the skills of watersports are taught in a professional atmosphere by qualified, insured instructors. We are focused on our Free Keiki Ocean Safety clinics which introduce watersports to new users as a means to safely enjoy the ocean and encourage participation in new watersports. 100% of all contributions from individuals who learn watersports and receive ocean safety training with us, are used to provide quality equipment and professional instruction for the Keiki Clinics and presentations.
