Unexpected Maui

It’s a long drive up to the summit of Haleakala National Park and with a 3am wakeup call it’s not an easy one. But once you see the golden sun peek above the carpet of clouds around Maui’s highest peak, it’s worth every second of lost sleep.

Seeing the sunrise over Haleakala is just one example of taking the road less travelled on Maui. Hike to the stunning 120-metre Waimoku Falls in East Maui. Meet the locals at Maui’s small towns, from Wailuku to Makawao. Explore flower farms like the Kula Botanical Garden to see colourful protea, orchids and bird-of-paradise. On Maui there is a wealth of unique adventures to discover, off-the-beaten-track.
