The specialty license plates are expected to be available for purchase in March or April 2026 through local DMV vehicle registration offices across the islands, with proceeds supporting critical drowning prevention initiatives and swimming programs throughout Hawaiʻi.

THE HAWAII WATER SAFETY PLAN 2025

I Palekana Kakou Ma Ka Wai

(Let Us Be Safe in the Water)

While Hawaiʻi produces some of the most highly skilled watermen and waterwomen in the world, drowning is the leading cause of death for our keiki ages 1-15, and Hawaiʻi ranks second in the nation for drowning rates among residents. The Outrigger Duke Kahanamoku Foundation partnered with the Hawaiʻi Water Safety Coalition to create recommendations to ensure that everyone in Hawaiʻi is safe in, on, and around the water.
