Maui Sightseeing, Touring and Attractions

Pukalani Country Club
Set in the rolling hillsides of "up-country" Maui, Pukalani Country Club overlooks the Pacific Ocean and the rest of the Valley Isle of Maui from 1,100 foot level of Mount Haleakala, an extinct volcano whose name in Hawaiian means "House of the Rising Sun".

Haleakala National Park
From the cold barren heights of a 10,000 ft (3055 m) volcanic peak to the warm Pacific water, Haleakala welcomes you. Whether you will soon be visiting the park, want to experience it virtually or are researching a topic or issue related to the park, we invite you to take that step and see for yourself what makes Haleakala National Park a place worth traveling to.

Maui Nui Botanical Gardens
The mission of the Maui Nui Botanical Gardens is to foster an appreciation and understanding of the living Hawaiian islands of today, emphasizing the plants of Maui Nui (Maui, Moloka'i, Lana'i and Kaho'olawe), and providing a center for environmental education, Hawaiian cultural expression, conservation, biological study, and recreation.

Wailua and Kanahualui Falls
These two impressive waterfalls are along the roadside and fall down the sharp cliff faces, surrounded by vegetation. The air may be filled with mist as you walk to the base of the mossy grotto at the foot of the falls. Wailua Falls, 200-feet high, can be seen from the highway, but take the time to make the short hike to the base of the fall for a truly beautiful sight.

Lahaina Whaling Museum
It's hard to believe now, but from 1825 to 1860, Lahaina was a bustling whaling town. The Whalers Village Museum takes you back in time through the eyes of an ordinary sailor or "whaleman." It was man verses the whales and the elements.

Maui Tropical Plantation

Ka'eleku Caverns
This is an incredible family adventure. It is safe, fun and free of mosquitoes and bats. You will marvel at the underground lavascape, as your mind expands and your world becomes more wondrous. Temperatures are comfortable year round and the clear cinder trail is easily traveled.

Oheo Gulch
A series of lovely waterfalls and tranquil pools flow through the O'heo Gulch and into the ocean nearby. The Pipiwai Streams feeds these falls and numerous pools starting 2 miles inland. The easiest to reach and the nicest pools are located near the shoreline. The land where the Seven Sacred Pools are situated was donated to the Haleakala National Park system so that the pools would forever be open to the public. This is a natural playground for locals and tourists alike.

Lahaina's Giant Banyan Tree
The famous Banyan Tree located in courthouse square in the center of Lahaina was brought to Maui from India when the tree was a mere eight-feet tall. It was planted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Lahaina's first Christian mission.

Charles Lindbergh Grave
The famed aviator, Charles Lindbergh, lived his last days on the lush Hana coast. Today he lies at rest on the serene grounds of the Palapala Ho'omau Church in beautiful Kipahulu. The limestone coral church, built in 1857, still stands here. Lindbergh's grave is under the shade of a Java plum tree.

Maui Outdoor Activities

Golf

The Dunes at Maui Lani
You will discover a golf course that is immaculately maintained, brilliantly designed, and simply a superb test of golf in every way.

Kaanapali Golf Tournament North Course
Ka'anapali Kai Course was originally created as an executive course and was later redesigned by architect Arthur Jack Snyder in 1976. At 6,400 yards, the Par 70 course is a more forgiving golf course with subtle, undulating greens that accomodates all levels of play.

Kahili Golf Course
Uniquely positioned on the the slopes of the West Maui Mountains, this world-class layout affords stunning views of majestic Haleakala and the sapphire Pacific. Carved out of the foothills of the scenic West Maui Mountains, the design of Kahili Golf Course takes advantage of the local terrain and Hawaiian Tradewinds to create a unique golf experience.

Kapalua, The Bay Course
Arnold Palmer and Francis Duane designed The Bay Course. The forerunner of Kapalua's three championship golf courses, The Bay Course is a 6,600-yard par 72 with gently rolling fairways and generous greens. The Bay Course is an excellent example of resort golf at its best.

Kapalua, The Plantation
The par 73, 7,411-yard Plantation Course, is the course of the champions, site of the PGA TOUR Mercedes Championships each January featuring an elite field of previous year's PGA TOUR winners.

Kapalua, The Village
Kapalua's second Arnold Palmer design layout, The Village Course, twists, turns, rises and falls through the West Maui foothills. A serene trek through Hawaiian headlands, stands of Cook and Norfolk pines characterize this par 70 6,317-yard course.

Makena North Course
Designed by Robert Trent Jones, Jr., the Makena North Course opened in 1993 to rave reviews. The North Course feels more like a nature walk than a golf course, with captivating mountain views of Haleakala Crater and sweeping views of the blue Pacific Ocean.

Makena South Course
Sharing the spirit that embodies the Makena Resort, the South Course provides the serenity and tranquility many golfers are looking for. With its natural rolling fairways, undulating greens, and breathtaking views of the ocean and mountains, the South Course is a favorite among many Maui golfers.

Pukalani Country Club
Set in the rolling hillsides of "up-country" Maui, Pukalani Country Club overlooks the Pacific Ocean and the rest of the Valley Isle of Maui from 1,100 foot level of Mount Haleakala, an extinct volcano whose name in Hawaiian means "House of the Rising Sun".

Emerald Course at Wailea Golf Club
Rated one of the "best new courses" by Golf Magazine and Golf Digest, as well as "one of North America's most women-friendly" by Golf for Women, the Wailea Emerald is akin to a lush tropical playground.
