Description:
The Big Island's longest continually running luau and one of its chief "must dos," this traditional feast is held under the watchful eye of the Hualalai Volcano. Each celebration kicks off with the imu ceremony – the unearthing of the kiawe-flavored (mesquite) pig, which has been cooked and buried in sand a full day before the feast. From there, things only get better, and the buffet-style feast includes everything from lomi salmon and ahi poke to coconut pudding and sweet potatoes. After the feast, guests are treated to a Polynesian revue, which features hula dancing, Samoan fire knife dancers, and the Tahitian tamure. No trip to paradise would be complete without experiencing one of its most carefully preserved customs.
