Maui - the 'land of the sun.' A bredth of exhilerating outdoorattractions, and entertainment, from the remote and lush paradise of Hana, watching humpback whales from the famous whaling port of Lahaina, to teeing off at a championship golf course. Maui always enchants those who visit.
Stand above a sea of clouds high atop Haleakala Crater. Watch a 45 foot whale – one of around 3000 humpbacks that migrate past Maui each winter - surface off the western coastal waters of the island. Lose count of the waterfalls outside your window as you drive the hairpin turns of Hana highway. There’s a reason why Maui is nicknamed “The Magic isle."
Created by two volcanoes, Maui is a place of rare spectacular uninhibited beauty. The second largest Hawaiian island has a smaller population than you’d expect, making Maui popular with visitors who are looking for sophisticated diversions and amenities in the small, intimate towns sprinkled throughout the island. Maui’s unique vistas also make it a much anticipated destination. From beaches – and hotels - that have repeatedly been voted among the best on the planet to the scenic heights of Haleakala, “The House of the Sun”, a volcano which lays dormant for an unforgettable spectacle... sunrise at dawn.
From the mountain peaks of the West with its miles of breathtaking unspoilt beaches... to Lahaina, a historic whaling town for unforgettable dining, exciting nightlife, and cultural artifacts. Moving East to the vast areas of lush vegetation, and to the Crater of Haleakala, "The House of the Sun", a volcano which lays dormant, for an unmissable spectacle... sunrise at dawn. Then onto heavenly Hana a coast full of secluded coves with a winding coastal road which breezes past cascading waterfalls, lava cliffs, and exotic flora and fauna.
Whether you simply wish to relax or whale watch, the old Maui saying "Maui no ka oi" - Maui is best, is true in every sense.
