31st Annual Hanohano Ocean Challenge
January 24, 2026

The Hanohano Ocean Challenge is one of the Longest Running Paddlesport Races in California (OC-1, Surfski, V-1, Traditional Paddleboard, Standup Paddleboard, and Kayak). We’ve always had a great mix of top level professional athletes and beginners from ages 7-80.

Race course options for the 31st annual event include a 4.5 miles short course, an approximately 9 mile long course, a 1000 meter junior race, or even a virtual 10k if you can’t join us in person! Pre-Registration is highly suggested. To register, review course maps, and find additional information click on the link below.
