Lahaina

On your 2024 Maui Hawaii holiday or honeymoon visiting Lahaina is absolutely essential! It is a beautiful town that will make your 2024 Hawaii holiday unforgettable. Lahaina is located in between the coast of Maui and the West Maui Mountains and is known for its historic nature and amazing Kapalua and Ka’anapali beach resorts.

A must see whilst in Lahaina is the historic Banyan Tree planted in 1874 that stands at 60 ft high, with 16 major trunks rooted in the ground and stretching over 200 ft - the tree is said to be the largest in America! On weekends locals set up stalls, play music and hula dance by the tree making it a fabulous experience. The sunset sail in Lahaina is another amazing activity to do whilst on your 2024 Hawaiian Maui holiday as, in our opinion, it is one of the best ways to watch the sunset. On your boat you will have music, drinks and food to make the evening extra special and enjoy the sunsetting over the water. You will leave from Lahaina harbour and also get to see the amazing Hawaii coastline from the sea. Whilst in Lahaina you’ll certainly want to experience the extraordinary local lūʻau where dancers will tell the story of the Demigod Maui and how the Hawaiian Island of Maui came to be. Experiencing a local lūʻau is an unforgettable experience and something everyone should do whilst on their 2024 Maui holiday. The Polynesian culture is so beautiful and having the opportunity to experience even a small part of it should not be missed!

Surfers and surfer-newbies will also want to check out The Break Wall whilst in Lahaina – if you have the time, you could enrol in one of the many Maui surf schools that will teach you to surf in a day! You might not be a pro, but you’ll at least be able to stand up! There are other ocean activities in Lahaina including the Honolua Snorkel Sail on the Maui catamaran which will take you into the surrounding Pacific Ocean for some amazing snorkelling and cruising! During the whale-watching season Lahaina visitors will also have the opportunity to set sail on a whale watching tour! Lahaina whale watching tours include onboard Jr. naturalist program for kids, hydrophones so you can hear the whales sing, and 2 decks ensuring everyone has a front row seat to the whales. The Hawaiian Island of Maui is one of the best places in the world to witness humpback whales surface the water and is an extraordinary opportunity not to be missed!
