Things To Do
Road to Hana
The Road to Hana is world famous for the natural beauty of its unblemished landscapes and towering waterfalls. With approximately 600 curves and 54 bridges the road to Hana can be dangerous. It will take you a full day to enjoy the Road to Hana with its many pit stops along the way!
Snorkel Molokini
Molokini Crater, created by an eruption 230,000 years ago, is one of the most popular spots to snorkel on Maui. Crystal clear waters with up to 150 feet of visibility allow you to experience 250 species of fish and 38 species of coral. Take a morning trip out to the crater as winds pick up in the afternoon making it hard to get to the crater by boat.
Paia Town
Isabelle's favorite surfer hippie town. Try Flatbread Company for lunch or a light dinner and make sure you don't leave town without grabbing one of the best mac nut cookies on the island at Maka by Mana. This is the last town before the road to Hana Town. Make sure to stop at Ho'okipa Lookout and watch the locals shred some waves.
Mama's Fish House
World famous restaurant on Maui's North Shore in Paia, featuring Hawaiian fish caught daily by local fishermen. If you're looking for a more casual experience check out Flatbread Company just around the corner for organic wood-fired pizzas.
Humpback Whale Watching
Winter months are the perfect time for whale watching tours since Maui County has the world's densest humpback population. Typical Maui weather patterns mean morning hours are glassy and calm and afternoons are choppy and windy. This mean morning hours are the best for the calmest, smoothest conditions to see the spouts.
Old Lahaina Luau
Most authentic luau on the island. Family style seating so go with a group of friends! You can book tickets in advance on their website.
Haleakalā National Park
You'll have to start your journey to the crater in the very early hours of the morning but nothing compares to a sunrise at Haleakala. According to Hawaiian mythology, the Haleakala Crater is where the demigod Maui lassoed the sun. After sunrise, hike one of the many trails in the park. Stopping at La Provence for brunch on the way home is a must. A quaint outdoor French find with the best eggs benedict, crepes, and pastries.
Lahaina's Front Street
Stroll the "downtown" area, peruse the small shops and take a break under the massive banyan tree. Cool off at Maui Grown Coffee just outside Lahaina for the best iced mochas!
Big Beach
Also known as Oneloa Beach, one of the more popular beaches in Maui. When the surf is up (as is often the case in the spring), there is a powerful shorebreak and strong undertow at Big Beach. It is best to stay out of the water!
