Guided tours and travel packages are great for helping you cover a lot of territory in a short time, but sometimes it can be worthwhile to spend a few days exploring places and people that are a little further off the well-beaten path. Here are some of our tips for discovering Maui’s hidden gems and soaking up the local flavor.

  1. Explore local events like Haiku Hoolaulea, the Kapalua Festival of the Arts, and the International Festival of Canoes.
  2. See colorful Protea, orchids, and Birds of Paradise at the Kula Botanical Garden.
  3. Spend a day wine tasting at Tedeschi Winery and try the pineapple wine.
  4. Take a hike to the stunning 400-ft. Waimoku Falls past Hana.
  5. Dress warmly and watch the sunrise from the top of Haleakala Crater.
