Heads up! Hawaii-exclusive Hydro Flask colors are now on-sale in Hawaii!
If you’re a fan of those steel, vacuum-insulated bottles known as Hydro Flasks, then you probably have a few different colors in your collection. And while most colors are easy to find, there a three you won’t find anywhere but the Aloha State.
Hawaii-Exclusive Hydro Flask Colors
The three, Hawaii-exclusive colors are vibrant, two-tone colors. And each of these color combos carries a Hawaiian name, reflecting the inspiration for the colors.
From right to left, the first color is called Moana. No, the color isn’t named for or inspired by Disney’s hit movie, Moana. The two-tone blue color gets its name from the Olelo Hawaii word for ocean, which happens to be Moana. And it’s easy to see why; the light blue transitioning into a dark blue is evocative of the way the ocean’s color transitions from light blue near to darker and darker colors the deeper you go.
The second color of the collection is called Anuenue, which means rainbow in Olelo Hawaii. This one, though, I don’t quite get, as the purple-pink bottle doesn’t really remind me of a rainbow. It’s still nice, though.
And the last color is, of course, the yellow-pink one and is called Pomaikai. The English translation of Pomaikai is sunset, which does nicely match this color combination. Sunsets in Hawaii, after all, often have hues of yellow, pink, red, and orange in them. Especially under the right conditions.

Hawaii-Exclusive Hydro Flask Colors, Final Thoughts
I like my Hydro Flask, but I only own one. And I’m fine with that. If I were to buy one of these Hawaii-exclusive colors, it would probably be the Moana one. But, I highly doubt I will. I’m not sure what the pricing is on these bad boys, but I’m sure it’s higher than usual. However, if you’re visiting the islands in the near future and are in the market for a new Hydro Flask, keep your eyes open for these exclusive colors at the retailers listed above.
