Hawaiian Reef was released early June, 2015 and only available in the Hawaiian Islands.
In the style of Wyland, this design shows a typical ocean wave hitting a coral reef, viewing half underwater with fish and half above with palm trees in the distance. The image also shows the official Hawaiian state fish (a trigger fish), a beautiful, colorful creature called humuhumunukunukuapua’a. It was adopted as the state fish in 1985.
Now, how do you pronounce this 21 letter name? It sounds just like this: “Who-moo-who-moo-noo-koo-noo-koo-ah-poo-ah”. Click HERE to hear it in a childs song. You'll probably learn more about this fish from this video, then you can take great pride that you are saying it knowing this Hawaiian expression with such ease and precision.
