Location-wise, the Hawaiian Islands couldn't be better in the Pacific. This hotspot gives them access to vast stretches of water, stunning weather patterns, and the most verdant flora I've ever seen. Is it worth it to make the effort to travel to these Islands? I used to think of Hawaii as a tropical expansion of mainland America, a playground for newlyweds. Now I understand... it's so much more!
Yacht travel is the best way to see Maui and other islands of comparable size. The dramatic scenery extends all along the island's shoreline. From the upscale resorts of Wailea in the southwest to the buzzing town of Lahaina in west Maui; from the Road to Hana's epic start in Paia to the scrubland cliffs of Mt. Haleaka's south side, you will see a world of beauty in one trip. It's unfortunate that few, if any, crewed charter yachts are available for vacations here and guests are often limited to day trips.
Maalaea Bay accommodates small yachts while larger vessels berth at Lahaina's harbor. The island's aquatic center and numerous vessels for ocean trips are located in Maalaea, a more peaceful area. If you're on a chartered yacht, however, you need look no further than your own captain and staff to take you to the spectacular crater Molokini or the shoreline of Makena in order to go snorkeling and sea turtle sighting.
The town of Lahaina, on the western coast of Maui, protrudes dramatically from the rest of the island. More people visit this part of Maui than any other. You can witness the annual Kamehameha procession and shopped along Front Street. (complete with live ukulele strumming, horses wearing leis, and locals toting banners). This is also a great place to learn to surf.
While in Maui, you might catch locals raving about the breathtaking Road to Hana. Your yacht crew can arrange for you to travel this highly winding route. If you like your vacations spiced with incredible adrenaline, then this treacherous path is for you. Each picture appears to be better than the last.
Your mind will spin in a sea of verdant green and impossible blue as you explore bamboo forests, tropical flora, cascading waterfalls, wading pools, coastal caves, and treacherous cliffs. There is perpetual life and expansion. The sparkling black sand of a lava-formed seashore looks even more enchanted against the spring green color of a plant recovering the cove's surrounding rock walls.
Your Maui bucket list should include making regular use of local produce. Sugar cane is the primary crop grown on Maui, though other crops such as macadamia nuts, pineapple, Maui onions, and the ubiquitous coconut are also cultivated here. In my experience, tourists tend to avoid poi (pork or shellfish) but enjoy haupia (coconut custard) and lilikoi (passion fruit) for dessert.
The culture of Hawaii is just as colorful and dynamic as the state's abundant vegetation and fauna. Relax on a private yacht in the 50th and most vibrant state in the United States, and rediscover the wonders of nature. Then please enlighten us on the amazing discoveries you made on this island of mysteries.
