Every evening Ka'anapali honors its history and traditions. At sundown, cliff divers reenact the feat of Maui's revered King Kahekili, who bravely dove from the cliff at Pu'u Keka'a, or Black Rock, into the churning sea, at a time when the spot was considered to be the jumping off place for the soul to enter the nether world.
Tikii torches are lit along the shore as the ancient pahu drums and triton shell horns call the hula dancers and revelers to the beachside luaus at many of the resorts.
