Maui Concierge_v.G - Whaler_6_27_2023

Of all the islands and cultures strewn across the vast Pacific ocean there is only one island that bears the name of that deity who slowed the sun, raised the islands from the deep, and defended the right of mankind to live upon this world. And of course, here on the island of Maui we feel a sense of ownership of his name and legacy. But O‘ahu also claims Maui as their own, as do other islands and island groups throughout the Pacific. In fact, the legends of a great being named Maui go as far back as the Philippines, speaking to how far back in the distant past of our seafaring ancestors these stories go. Most of the legends of Maui start with a problem or trouble being presented to him, often by his mother. He then seeks advice from an elder, for they hold the wisdom. As he goes forth to conquer this foe or solve this problem he does so not for fame and glory, but for the betterment of society and the families around him. Maui
