• Duke Pa'oa Kahanamoku Lagoon Blessing - October 16, 2007

A private blessing and official opening ceremony were held on Tuesday, October 16, 2007.

In attendance were Lt. Gov. James "Duke" Aiona, other politicians, dignitaries, as well as several relatives of Duke Kahanamoku, including his grand-niece, Ms. Jo-Ann Kahanamoku-Sterling from Kailua-Kona on the island of Hawaii.

The Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa, together with Hilton Grand Vacations Company, closed the lagoon in 2006 for an unprecedented, $15 million restoration project. It re-opened in December 2007.
