Coeur d'Alene Canoe Club

Paddling Together on Lake Coeur d'Alene

Join Idaho’s premier outrigger canoe club on the stunning waters of Lake Coeur d’Alene. No experience needed — just a love for the water.

CDA Outrigger is Coeur d’Alene’s outrigger canoe club. We paddle OC-6 (Outrigger Canoe 6-person) on Lake Coeur d’Alene and coordinate paddling opportunities throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond.

We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the sport of outrigger canoeing, building community, and connecting people with the water. Whether you’re a seasoned ocean paddler or have never touched a paddle, you belong here.

Grounded in Aloha

Aloha Spirit

More than a word — it's how we interact. With kindness, humility, and mutual respect in everything we do.

ʻOhana (Community)

Every member is welcomed, respected, and connected. We show up for each other, our community, and the water.

Kuleana (Responsibility)

Stewardship through lake clean-ups, conservation efforts, and deep respect for the natural environment.

Club Identity

Cultural Foundation

Authentic Hawaiian paddling culture is central to our identity. We learn, practice, and perpetuate traditional protocols by bringing in experienced cultural practitioners and building relationships with partner clubs.

Education First

A cultural and educational experience supported by strong community, welcoming all levels with a natural path toward competitive paddling.

Community Impact

A family-friendly hub, cultural bridge, youth development resource, and fitness outlet serving the greater Coeur d'Alene community.
