Lai'e
The word Hukilau comes from the Hawaiian words "huki" meaning pull and "lau" meaning net. The community would gather to pull the fishing nets into the shore and then celebrate the catch with a festival. Hukilau festivals were held on this beach between the 1940's through the 1970's. This traditional and ancient Hawaiian event inspired Authur Godfrey to write the famous song, "Going to the Hukilau". Today this beautiful beach is better known for it's sand, surf, and relaxing atmosphere.
