In West Maui, discover coastline gems, majestic mountains, cultural and historical sites. Venture around West Maui Mountains for coastline views and numerous activities: Let’s go snorkeling (not a boat tour/must bring snorkel gear).

In Kapalua, hike to an incredible lava rock cliffside for jumping into the most pristine ocean and exploring sea life. Explore other pristine beaches and tide-pools. Take a stroll passed an ancient burial site to the legendary Dragons Teeth and labyrinth off the seashore. Visit Kapalua's famous Plantation Golf Course where the Mercedes & Hyundai Championships have taken place.

Drive around West Maui Mountains loop and experience the force of Nakalele blowhole, where the eruptions are active 90% of the time and can often reach heights of 100 ft! If you're feeling adventurous, hike through lava rock zones that look like another planet! Hike down a crumbly trail and swim in the most amazing tide-pools - with the option of diving into the largest one (This activity depends on ocean conditions). Take a leisurely walk through the unique and lush jungle of Honolua to the mouth of the Bay.

On the Southside: snorkel at the best beaches (must bring snorkel gear), hike through extensive lava rock zones and hidden white coral beaches near La Perouse Bay (formerly Keone'o'io). The bay is the site of Maui's most recent volcanic activity. It was later named for the French explorer, Captain Jean-François de Galaup, comte de La Pérouse. In 1786, La Pérouse surveyed and mapped the prominent embayment near the southern cape of Maui.

In Central Valley: explore Iao Valley, the deepest valley in West Maui Mountains (our western and oldest volcano, Kakalawai - House of Water), making the Iao River the largest watershed from these wet slopes. The last eruption was 320,000 years ago, and since then, significant erosion has carved out these beautifully shaped mountains and deep valleys. Then making our way to the base of the Iao needle, a 1200 ft Basalt tower that was once used as a watch tower during battles between the Polynesians. Bath in the Iao Stream, our largest river on the island.
