Itinerary

  1. Haleakala National Park — A massive dormant volcano rising above Maui, famous for its otherworldly crater and unforgettable sunrise views. From lava landscapes to lush Kipahulu coast, it feels like two parks in one.
  2. A quiet East Maui community surrounded by lush valleys and waterfalls. It’s a peaceful stretch along the Road to Hāna, where rainforest scenery begins to take over.
  3. Wailua Falls — There are almost countless waterfalls along the Road to Hana drive, as it winds it's way through gulches and ravines along the side of the Haleakala Volcano. Beauty can be arbitary, but for many, Wailua Falls is the most picturesque. Located between Hana and the Oheo Pools, be sure to stop and capture some classic pictures at this beautiful location.
  4. Wailua Valley State Wayside Park — Wailua Valley State Wayside Park — a scenic overlook offering sweeping views of Wailua Valley’s lush rainforest and distant waterfalls. A quick pull-off with one of the most dramatic vistas along the Road to Hāna.
  5. Hanawi Falls — Hanawī Falls — a tall, tiered waterfall visible right from the roadside bridge. After heavy rain, it roars through the rainforest, making it one of the most dramatic cascades along the Road to Hāna.
  6. The Arboretum at Keanae is an easy, no-cost location where you can see a collection of tropical plants and trees. It takes less than 30 minutes see and get pictures of the golden-stemmed bamboo, ginger, papaya and hibiscus. Continuing along the trail the follows the Piinaau Stream, leads walkers to to terraces that were created by ancient Hawaiians for taro cultivation. Perhaps the star of the show at the Arboretum is that you can get up close to the Rainbow Eucalyptus trees with its brightly colored bark, that looks too good to be true.
  7. The flat peninsula that juts out into the ocean was created by an outflow of volcanic lava from Haleakala which looms above us. It left behind a little oasis, ideal for taro farming. There is a picturesque small church made out of coral and lava rock, more than a century and a half ago. It's nice to watch the waves pound away at the spire-like rocky outcrops for a while and you are almost guaranteed of being able to find some coconuts along the shore.
  8. Honomanu Bay — a secluded black-sand and rock bay tucked between steep green cliffs. Wild, windswept, and often rough, it’s more about the raw coastal scenery than swimming.
