MAIN
When the first European settlers came, Christmas was unknown to the Hawaiians. However, the Western holiday coincided with an ancient island rite of giving thanks to the gods for a bountiful year, so the two traditions eventually fused to what has become the "Christian holiday" season on the islands. Today, Santa comes every year in a magic canoe over the sea and right up onto the beach - with expressions of Mele Kalikimaka (Merry Christmas) and a Hau'oli Makahiki Hou (Happy New Year).
