Guests will appreciate a genuine reflection of Hawaii's rich history while

paradise on the private island of Lanai. Snorkel
the unspoiled Hulopo'e Marine Preserve and enjoy
one of the top 10 rated beaches in the world. Trip

and the plantation town of Lanai City, continental
breakfast and all you can eat Hawaiian style BBQ
lunch overlooking Manele Bay.
Blue Water Rafting: Kanaio

and lava arches of a hidden volcanic coastline. Discover
the comfort of a luxury yacht with open-air dining
and spectacular panoramic views of the islands.
Spirit of Lahaina Dinner Cruise: Enjoy
a casual cruise with a backdrop of the romantic Hawaiian
sunset and Maui coastline! Filled with aloha, the
friendly Spirit of Lahaina crew welcomes you with
hula, tropical cocktails, a freshly gilled steak,
fish and shrimp dinner, live Hawaiian music and dancing!
Maui offers a variety of activities
as vast as the volcano that towers over it and the
ocean which surrounds it. A few of Andrea's and Jill’s
favorites:
Catch a
wave: Check out the waves at surfing, windsurfing,
and kiteboarding hot spots like Hookipa, 'Sand
Box,' ‘Jaws,’ and 'Slaughterhouse.'
When you're ready to do a little board-riding of
your own, sign up for lessons at www.mauisurf.com.
Put it in
gear: The best way to experience Maui’s
beauty is from behind the wheel. Rent
a convertible and set out
on the legendary road to Hana. From Kahului Airport,
the road is 52 miles of 600 curves, 54 one-lane
bridges, and sights that have to be seen to be
believed. Park by a waterfall and rainforest filled
with scenic wonders. If you’re not staying
overnight at the Hotel Hana-Maui, allow plenty
of time for the return trip. You don’t want
to drive back in the dark.
 Get
wet: You don’t have to be Jacques
Cousteau to see amazing underwater life around
Maui. Snorkeling and diving is a way of life
here, and it’s an affordable way to spend
the day. Don’t miss the submerged volcanic
crater of Molokini to glass-bottom boats. At
the Maui Ocean Center, you’ll enjoy aquariums
stocked with sea cucumbers, eagle rays, and
sea turtles, too. Or, just ask us about snorkel
excursions and packages.
Climb
high: Upcountry Maui is an enjoyable
and unexpected departure from the white sand
beaches and palm trees, and a great way to
see Maui in all its beauty. Horses, cows,
quaint shops and authentic local life abounds
here in the cooler part of the Valley Isle.
Shop roadside stands for locally-grown tropical
fruits, vegetables, and flowers, and visit
Makawao for clothing, jewelry, and island
art. Like wine? Try Tedeschi Vineyards at
Ulupalakula…the island’s only
commercial winery, situated in a lovely grove
in the cool comfort of upcountry Maui!
Go artsy: Lots
of artists and artisans make Maui their home,
and it shows. On Friday nights in Lahaina,
you can gallery-hop to your heart’s content,
with ample supplies of complimentary wine and
pupus. At Hui Noeau Visual Arts Center, they
offer classes in art history, photography,
and ceramics. You’ll also find art programs
at hotels and resorts in Wailea, Kapalua, and
Ka’anapali.)
Saddle
up: The best view of Maui is from
the back of a sure-footed steed, and several
stables offer trail rides on the island.
Hawaiian cowboys, called paniolos, will saddle
you up and move you out through Makena’s
lava fields, Kapalua’s rainforests,
and the rainbowed, misty sunsets of Upcountry.
Ask us about riding stables and packages!
 Shoot
the moon: One Maui “must” is
a visit to Haleakala Crater, the 10,023-foot
volcano that covers 21 miles of the island.
Haleakala’s so moon-like, it was used
as a training ground for the Apollo astronauts
in the ‘60s. Brave souls can make the
drive up for sunrise (bring a coat—it’s
chilly, but breathtaking), and braver ones
ride specially-equipped mountain bikes from
the top to the bottom.
Bring
on the night: In the tropics, night
falls fast, and 9 p.m. is known as “Maui
Midnight.” Still, you can find nightlife—although
it’s as laid-back as the local surfers.
In Lahaina, the streets come alive with foodies
waxing eloquent over award-winning Asian-fusion
cuisine and in Kihei and Wailea, bartenders
mix up great Mai Tais in lively restaurant
bars.

and Jill at their favorite secret waterfall... |
Beach
it: Maui has arguably the Hawaiian
Islands’ best collection of beaches,
with a total of 81 stretches of sand. Check
out Kaanapali’s three-mile beach, Makena’s
famous “Big Beach, or Wailea’s
classic stretch of sand on southwest Maui.
Hello, luau: Hawaii's
most authentic luaus happen in Maui, and
the Old Lahaina and Wailea Marriott luaus
are well worth a visit. Dine on authentic
Hawaii'ian dishes like roasted pig, poi,
and haupia, the local coconut pudding. Ask
us about our favorite luau packages!

I am with my daughter, Jill, at a secret waterfall
