Things to do in Maui

[opentrackerSteve]

Thought I'd ask the group what you all would recommend to do in Maui.

SWMBO and I are headed there next Feb for our wedding anniversary.... Probably going to rent a house for a week in Haiku area.

The wife and I just got back from over a week in Oahu. We spent a lot of time in the water diving. There are some excellent dive spots around the islands. Saw some cool fish including white and black tip reef sharks and about a 3' barracuda!! If you're not certified, most of the dive shops do introductory dives that will take ya down around 40'.

Since you insist on taking the wife any ideas I had are probably not what you are looking for.

Mama's fish house is the best restaurant I have ever been to. Take money . The view is amazing. Google it And make a reservation now. Drive the road to Hana. amazing drive.

Road to Hana is a good drive with lots of stops for scenery and waterfalls. We took a day trip on a catamaran to Lanai which was great. Snorkeling in the Molokini crater was nice, as well as the sea turtles in Turtle Town. I thought the Luau was overrated, but the pork they cook in the ground is excellent. Rent a convertible too.

Steve: Print out this list of cheap eats in Maui. http://travel.latimes.com/articles/la-tr-mauia6apr06

Sharon and I used this list a few years ago and have been back to some of these places several times. :thu

Another interesting trip is around the road on the north side of the island (Starts near Kapalua and winds over to Kahului). Look for the blowhole!
