Welcome to the Hawaiian island of Maui. From Kahului, pass fields of swaying sugar cane en route to its majestic natural wonders. Behold the sacred Iao Needle, dedicated to the god of the ocean. Or drive the scenic road, often wrapped in clouds, that winds its way up Haleakala Crater, known as the House of the Sun, for spellbinding views.
Highlights
HALEAKALA
Haleakala means "The House of the Sun." To the Hawaiians, it appeared that the sun both rose from and set in the depths of its massive crater. Today, the centrepiece of Haleakala National Park, it is one of Maui’s major attractions. The massive crater is 3,000 feet (914m) deep, over seven miles (11km) long and two miles (3.2km) wide.
