Kaulana Pakele Of Manaʻo Company Tribute - Mākaha Beach

Here is a look at this beautiful Hawaiian community coming together for Kaualana Pakele. Our youths were surfing, saw that he needed help, and were the first responders in the surf. Sadly, this is the next day after he passed away. Darren Benetiz, Melvin Puʻu, Braddah Rich, others came by to sing songs, and pay tribute.

Aloha ʻoe Kaulana. Mahalo for the music with Manaʻo Company. You are a Hawaiian legend!
