Though small, Lāʻie has had a significant impact on Hawaiian culture. Fundraisers and feasts on the beach in the late 1940s inspired "The Hukilau Song," written, composed and originally recorded by Jack Owens, The Cruising Crooner, and made famous by Alfred Apaka. In addition, the "Shaka sign" now commonly associated with Hawaiʻi was born in Lāʻie, in honor of Hamana Kalili, a respected local leader who had lost the index, middle and ring fingers of his right hand. In a twist of fate, Kalili provided the fishing nets used in the early hukilau gatherings, including the one which led to the song.
