The Nightly Cliff Dive Ritual
As the sun begins its slow dive into the ocean, torch lighting signals the nightly ritual of lele kawa (cliff diving). Mauiʼs last ruling chief, Kahekili (Thunderer), a master of cliff jumping, loved to dive into the ocean from the Leina a ka ʻuhane (leap of the soul) at Puu Kekaa (Black Rock). Because it was a portal where spirits on their journey to the afterlife would leap into eternity, his feats proved the great power of his mana (divine energy) to all. Every day since our hotel near Black Rock Beach in Maui opened in 1963, we celebrate Kahekiliʼs courageous journey between the physical and spiritual realm with a sunset cliff diving ritual from the very Leina he jumped off of.
