Maui flowersThe mythic aura of the Island of Maui begins high atop Mauna Haleakala, a towering, dormant volcano whose crater is big enough to hold Manhattan. On the Valley Island, Maui surfer at sunsetMauna Haleakala's slopes descend to 33 miles of pristine beaches, then plunge into the waters off Maui's shores, where endangered humpback whales find a safe winter home.

Lovely Maui could be called the fun capital of the Hawaiian Islands and perhaps of the world, with more than a hundred kinds of activities to be enjoyed by land, sea or air.

Relax on beautiful sandy beaches or explore historic Lahaina, once Hawaii's royal capital and later a famous whaling town.

Motoring to Hana and the Seven Pools is an unforgettable trip. The road is a twisting narrow ribbon that weaves in and out of sea cliffs, mountains, valleys and waterfalls, and through rainforests and jungles of ferns. A wonderful journey not to be missed.

Maui also is a haven for golfers. Practice your swing on a great variety of golf courses, each unique and with spectacular vistas.
