Maui Travel Overview'No Ka Oi!' -roughly translated; 'The Best!' That's what the locals maintain about the island of Maui; second largest in the Hawaiian chain. If the urban sprawl of Honolulu (didn't you go on vacation to get away from traffic?) is not to your liking; Maui may be just the place for you. It is a paradise of gorgeous beaches and sprawling sugarcane fields. Dominating the island is the enormous volcano Haleakala ('House of the Sun'); one of the best places in the world for sky-gazing. The accomodations on Maui range from posh resort hotels to condos and bed & breakfasts. There is opportunity for hiking (Haleakala and the West Maui Mountains); golfing; and every watersport imaginable. The islands of Lanai and Molokai are easily accessible. You just may never want to leave. Popular Destinations |
