(A well-told tale travels far and wide)

Ka'anapali is rich with history and legends and the Ka'anapali Beach Resort offers a self-guided tour highlighting the area's storied past. Starting at the north end of Ka'anapali at the Plantation Farm & Ancient Village of Kekaa (Royal Lahaina Resort), the self-guided tour leads you to 10 sites marked by lava rock monuments with plaques that explain their significance. It continues south with captivating stories about Maui: Kekaa Landing Pier, which operated for years as the primary shipping point for Maui sugar; the legend of Puu Kekaa, the famed dark lava rock promontory that was revered as a sacred ka leina a ka uhane, or place where the soul leaps into eternity; and Koko O Na Moku Race Track which hosted horse races enjoyed by Hawaiian royalty and laborers alike.
