Every beach in Kihei is a prime sunset-watching spot but Keawakapu has a perfect angle and a stretch that's free of crowds. However, most popular on the south side are Kamaole beach I,II & III with large lawns to relax without the mess of sand yet a quick walk to the water. These beaches are also walking distance to bars, restaurants and shops!
Take an all day adventure on the Hana Highway to see lush rainforest, tons of waterfalls, black and red sand beaches, sea cliffs, lava tubes and so much more. Hikes and cliff jumping for those who are up for a challenge and waterfalls right next to the car for those who’d rather take it easy! This is a must do in Maui and is for everyone to enjoy!
Drive to the summit of Maui’s only volcano, Mt. Haleakala to catch sunrise or sunset! Go above the clouds to see rare native plants and animals with breath taking views. Dress warm! Temperatures at the summit are at least 20 degrees colder than at sea level and often drop below freezing. **If you choose to go for sunrise you will need reservations with the park. No reservations are needed for sunset.
See the west side of Maui in historic Lahaina for shops, restaurants, bars and museums right beside the ocean. Parking can be frustrating but once there everything is within a couple blocks.
This beach was named #1 beach in America and it’s easy to see why with long white sand beaches and crystal clear water. Cliff jump here off black rock with locals cheering you on or take it easy with the turtles. While on this side of the island you might want to also check out the Whalers Village Mall if you’re looking to shop.
Just about every bar and restaurant in Maui has a happy hour with insane deals!
