Towering over the island of Maui and visible from just about any point, Haleakala Crater is a force of nature in every sense. At 10,023 feet above sea level, this dormant volcano is the stage for a breathtaking range of landscapes—and skyscapes. Haleakala means "house of the sun" in Hawaiian, and legend goes that the demigod Maui lassoed the sun from its journey across the sky as he stood on the volcano’s summit, slowing its descent to make the day last longer. Many visitors wake up early to drive to the Haleakala Visitor Center, the best spot to watch what may be the most spectacular sunrise on earth. As the sun peeks over the horizon, an ever-changing swirl of color and light dance across the vast sea of clouds—a sight described by Mark Twain as “the most sublime spectacle I have ever witnessed.” Perhaps just as impressive are Haleakala’s sunsets and the bright, starry skies revealed at night. Remember, the National Park Service now requires a reservation for personal and rental vehicles to view the sunrise from the summit district. Your reservation is for parking at the summit and doesn’t include the required national Park entry fee. Drive times from Kaanapali and Wailea to reach the summit average 2 hours. Sunrises and sunsets are only two of the many reasons to pay Haleakala National Park a visit on your trip to Maui. Spanning more than 30,000 acres of public land, the stunning landscapes range from Mars-like red deserts and rock gardens near the summit to lush waterfalls and streams in the park’s coastal Kipahulu section, near Hana. There are numerous hiking trails that offer solitude and scenic vistas, while guided hikes and horseback rides provide an expert's insight in addition to the natural beauty. There are more endangered species here than any other park in the National Park Service, like blooming ahinahina (silversword) and nene (Hawaiian goose), the state bird. Visitors can also camp here, with separate campgrounds and cabins available.

Amazing! Reordering will be a must! I ordered on-line for my mom's birthday. They arrived perfectly packaged and on perfectly on time! We just can't believe how unique and gorgeous this arrangement is! Mom loves all the greenery and can't stop looking at this arrangement! She did get other flowers for her birthday and these proteas make them look so boringly average, even though they are very pretty on their own. I did my research on other protea sites but this one kept standing out. This large arrangement was also very reasonably priced, especially compared to other sites. You can stop looking and once you've found No Ka Oi Protea Farm!

We had such a wonderful time at O'o Farm. Our tour guide was passionate about growing, and they have such an array of items to show you on the tour - coffee beans, fruits and vegetables. We sampled and smelled quite a bit before sitting down to a gorgeous and delicious farm to table meal. Really a slice of heaven, especially now during the pandemic, when in person experiences are so scarce. Highly recommend!

6. Hosmer's Grove

Hosmer Grove trail is a lush forest hike in Haleakala National Park. The trail goes through a forest of huge Eucalyptus trees and provides a bird watching platform equipped with binocular at about midpoint. It is a relatively short trail (about a mile) and not too strenuous but be watchful for roots. Picnic shelter is available at the trailhead. I would certainly recommend Hosmer Grove trail since it would be good diversion from the volcanic views in Haleakala. It is also good for bird-watching.

We had a lovely visit to this distillery. Took the tour which is informative, wandered the property - they have spectacular views - took some photos, tasted their products and then purchased the toasted coconut rum. They have excellent products, the staff are friendly and helpful. Brandon gave us a great tour - thoroughly enjoyed his knowledge and presentation. It was one of the nicest activities we did on Maui.
