  • North Shore Maui Sightseeing & Shopping

    Blasted by winter swells and wind, Maui's North Shore draws water-sports thrill-seekers from around the world. But there's much more to this area of Maui than coastline. Inland, a lush, waterfall-fed garden of Eden beckons. In forested pockets, wealthy hermits have carved out a little piece of paradise for themselves.

  • South Shore Maui Sightseeing & Shopping

    The southern shore of Haleakala was an undeveloped wilderness until the 1970s. Then the sun-worshippers found it; now restaurants, condos, and luxury resorts line the coast from the world-class aquarium at Maalaea Harbor, through working-class Kihei, to lovely Wailea, a resort community on West Maui.

  • Maui Tropical Plantation & Country Store

    When Maui's once-paramount crop declined in importance, a group of visionaries decided to open an agricultural theme park on the site of this former sugarcane field. The 60-acre preserve offers a 30-minute tram ride through its fields with an informative narration covering growing processes and plant types. Read More
  • Keanae Overlook

    From this observation point, you can take in the patchwork-quilt effect the taro farms create below. The people of Keanae are working hard to revive this Hawaiian agricultural art and the traditional cultural values that the crop represents. Read More
  • Kepaniwai Park & Heritage Gardens

    This county park is a memorial to Maui's cultural roots, with picnic facilities and ethnic displays dotting the landscape.

  • Top Maui Experiences

    Trek down into Haleakala National Park's massive bowl and see proof of how very powerful the earth's exhalations can be. You won't see landscape like this anywhere, outside of visiting the moon. The barren terrain is deceptive however -- many of the world's rarest plants, birds, and insects live here. Read More
  • West Maui Sightseeing & Shopping

    Separated from the remainder of the island by steep pali (cliffs), West Maui has a reputation for attitude and action. Once upon a time, this was the haunt of whalers, missionaries, and the kings and queens of Hawaii; now it's one of Maui's main resort areas.

  • When to Go to Maui

    Learn the best time to visit Maui, whether you're interested in the beach, whale watching, or local festivals. Typically the weather on Maui is drier in summer (more guaranteed beach days) and rainier in winter (greener foliage, better waterfalls). Read More
  • Waikane Falls

    Though not necessarily bigger or taller than the other falls, these are the most dramatic -- some say the best -- falls you'll find on the road to Hana. Read More
  • Twin Falls

    Keep an eye out for the fruit stand just after mile marker 2. Stop here and treat yourself to some fresh sugarcane juice. If you're feeling adventurous, follow the path beyond the stand to the paradisiacal waterfalls known as Twin Falls. Once a rough trail, this treasured spot is now easily accessible. Read More
