Maui island Travel and Tourism. Vacation, Holiday, Environmental Information. When it comes to outdoor recreation, Maui wins best in show. Just look at that zipliner launching into a canopy of green. Or the mountain biker hurtling past eucalyptus and pine. Hikers have it darn good too, with trails winding through lava flows and bamboo forests. Along the coast, surfers barrel through waves, windboarders skim across whitecaps and snorkelers glide among fish-filled reefs and coral. And we havent even mentioned the Valley Isles most iconic adventures, like driving the Road to Hana. Watching the sunrise from the summit of Haleakala. Paddling a kayak within sight of humpback whales in Makena Bay. In sum? Amazing. The golden sands of Keawakapu Beach. The rumpled green flanks of Haleakala. The graceful beauty of Wailua Falls. These gorgeous sights have drawn admirers for generations. But its funny, just when you think you have a handle on Mauis sublime scenery, an unexpected view catches you by surprise. Its these unplanned glimpses of beauty that linger in your memory. Maybe its the E ahinahina (silversword) staking out a claim on a stark crater slope. Or the jagged lava along the KeE anae Peninsula, looking protective for a moment, not menacing. And the Waiakoa Loop Trail at Polipoli? Spookily pretty until that baby boar snuffles into view
