Maui is famous for its lush landscapes, epic beaches, and jaw-dropping sunrises at Haleakalā volcano. Oh, and let’s not forget the scenic Road to Hana and whale watching wonders. It’s Hawaii’s wild-at-heart island with a touch of luxury.
Snorkel at Molokini Crater, drive the iconic Road to Hana, catch sunrise above the clouds at Haleakalā, and stroll the historic streets of Lahaina. Add in waterfall hikes, farm-to-table dining, and breezy beach days for the ultimate island escape.
April to May and September to November are ideal—fewer crowds, perfect temps, and better rates. Visiting in winter? Bonus: it’s peak whale watching season!
The ʻAuʻau Channel between Maui, Molokaʻi, and Lānaʻi is one of the best whale watching spots on Earth. Hop on a boat from Lahaina or Maʻalaea Harbor between December and April to see humpbacks make a splash!
Maui’s got serious beach game. Head to Kāʻanapali Beach for golden sands and vibes, Wailea Beach for luxury lounging, and Makena (“Big Beach”) for wide-open beauty. For snorkelling? Napili Bay is your go-to.
Absolutely! From gentle beaches and easy hikes to aquariums, luaus, and whale watching, Maui’s packed with kid-friendly adventures. It’s sunshine, smiles, and unforgettable family memories.
5 to 7 days hits the sweet spot. You’ll have time to explore, unwind, chase waterfalls and soak up those aloha island vibes—without missing a moment.
