The Annual Tribal Canoe journey returned in 2023 for the first time since the pandemic. It features dozens of traditional canoes traveling the Salish Sea.turn. To celebrate, canoes landed at Lummi Island for the first time in nearly 170 years on Friday.

The NCAI is the “oldest, largest and most representative American Indian and Alaska Native tribal organization in the country,” Lummi-based Salish Center for Sustainable Fishing Methods Executive Director Riley Starks told KIRO 7.
