Stand above a sea of clouds high atop Haleakala.
Watch a 45-foot whale breach off the coast of
Lahaina. Lose count of the waterfalls along the
road as you maneuver the hairpin turns of the
Hana Highway. One visit and it's easy to see why
Maui is called "The Magic Isle."
The second largest Hawaiian Island has a smaller
population than you'd expect, making Maui
popular with visitors who are looking for
spontaneous moments and sophisticated
diversions in the small towns and airy resorts
spread throughout the island.
From shimmering beaches and sacred Iao Valley
to migrating humpback whales and sunset on
Haleakala, it's not surprising Maui was voted
the "Best Island" by the readers of Condé Nast
Traveler for 19 years. The Magic Isle recharges the
senses, but like every good magic trick, you'll have
to see it for yourself to believe it!

Pictured: The legendary road to Hana is only 52
miles from Kahului Airport, however the drive can
take anywhere from two to four hours to complete
since it consists of 59 bridges, 620 curves and
incredible island views to stop at alongside the
way, capturing grandeur moments of a lifetime.
