Maui
Maui is known as the "Valley Isle" due to its landscape of alternating valleys and coastlines. The island is warm year-round, and coastal areas are suitable for water activities in all seasons; however, if you plan to ascend to the summit of Haleakalā for sunrise in the early morning, the altitude is approx. 3,000 meters, and the temperature is significantly lower. The island's highlights are focused on natural scenery: the eastern Haleakalā National Park extends from the alpine zone to the coast, and the dormant volcanic crater at the summit, with its desolate, moon-like landscape, is a classic spot for watching the sunrise above the clouds; the Hana Hwy on the north coast winds between rainforests and sea cliffs, with sharp turns, one-lane bridges, waterfalls, and black sand beaches along the way—a self-drive trip here is like a rainforest adventure in itself. If you want to get in the water, you can take a boat to the crescent-shaped Molokini Crater not far offshore; this marine preserve has clear water and schools of tropical fish, making it a popular spot for snorkeling and diving. Kaanapali in the west and Wailea in the south are known for their long white sand beaches and resort atmosphere, which are perfect for sunbathing and surfing. There are also long-standing traditions to experience on the island: every day at sunset, a cliff-diving ceremony takes place at Black Rock at the north end of Kaanapali Beach, where divers light torches and leap into the sea—a scene many tourists wait specifically to see. Every winter, humpback whales return in groups to the warm waters around the island to breed and raise their young, and you have a chance to see them breaching from the shore or a whale-watching boat. If you want a change of pace, you can also visit the Iao Valley in the west, where the valley is lush and green, and the iconic Iao Needle rises abruptly, making it suitable for a relaxing short hike.Kula · 972m from downtown

The way to visit the protected areas in the park is to join a guided hike.Maui County · 19.5km from Kula
Kula Botanical Garden
Located in central Maui, on the hillside of Haleakala, Kula Botanical Garden is full of lush greenery, dotted with ponds with small fish and indigenous sculptures. Well-constructed trails lead through themed botanical gardens featuring mostly native Hawaiian plants. All kinds of poisonous plants grow in the forbidden garden. There is a small stream flowing in the botanical garden, so it is a major feature here to have moisture-loving plants that are rarely seen elsewhere. In addition, birds and chameleons can be seen in the botanical garden.Kula · 5.5km from downtown

Hana Hwy
The Hana Highway is located on Maui's rugged east coast, with about 600 turns and 54 bridges. The winding Hana Highway snakes between tropical valleys and towering cliffs, with beautiful scenery along the way. There are hiking trails along the way that go deep into the dense jungle, and you can see rushing waterfalls and clear pools. From Pa'ia all the way east, there will be fewer and fewer houses, replaced by sugarcane fields. After passing the 16-mile sign on Hwy36, the Hana Highway sign begins to change to Hwy36, and the sign numbers begin to return to zero.Maui County · 17.8km from Kula
Kamaole Beach Park III

What travellers say about Kula
YoYo_1I8Q7O5O1 August 2026
5.0
The sea around Maui was an unrealistically blue, with waves crashing against the rocks and splashing white foam. Wild pheasants swaggered across the road, and cars stopped to wait for them. The Hana Highway wound its way along the cliff edge, making my palms sweat, and I stopped seven or eight times to watch the waterfalls and rainbows. While snorkeling, I was startled to see a green sea turtle slowly sliding past me. At night, I could hear the waves from my cabin, and when I looked up, the sky was filled with stars, so dense it was almost frightening. Time moved at a leisurely pace; even the cats lay lazily by the roadside.

There are a lot of goats at the Surfing Goat Farm. There are large tracts of green grass, with white goats dotted among the grass. The view is particularly wide and the air is particularly good. There are not many tourists.

Haleakala National Park is the best place to watch the sunrise, but you have to get up early. It is recommended to charter a car. However, we couldn't get up so we went there during the day. The weather was very good. Hawaii under the blue sky and white clouds was really beautiful.

The first stop of the Hana Highway: Hookipa Beach, the western starting point of the Hana Highway. The waves here are rolling. It is the first time for me to see people surfing. I really admire their bravery. It is said that this is the birthplace of windsurfing.

The Hana Highway is worth a visit for those who like to drive. The scenery along the way is naturally very beautiful. There are many scenic spots. However, the Hana Highway is not flat all the way. There are also sharp bends and gravel roads.
