Join the Hula Anyone 'Ohana at the water's edge for the annual SBOCC Blessing of the Canoes and Paddlers. As we prepare for our 60th Anniversary voyage to Kaua'i, we gather at Ledbetter Beach to offer a traditional blessing for the safety, strength, and unity of our local paddling community.

Witness the intersection of Santa Barbara coastal life and authentic Hawaiian culture as we 'Bless the Canoes' for the upcoming season. This is a free community event—bring your aloha spirit and join us as we honor the traditions of the sea.
