Local favorites, helpful tips and a little Maui aloha from Cindy.
My favorite Maui beaches and snorkeling spots, plus my morning ocean tip and a Molokini favorite.
The Hāna stops I actually recommend, from Twin Falls and Hoʻokipa to Black Sand Beach, banana bread and a few little road tips I always tell my guests.
A few of my favorite non-beach Maui days: ʻĪao and Kepaniwai, Haleakalā, Makawao and some easy Upcountry stops.
Local produce, Maui-made gifts, farmers markets and little shops I like — including my favorite easy stops right by Grand Champions in Wailea.
If your dates line up, go! Here are the Maui town nights and markets I’d actually send you to, including Wailuku First Friday and Kīhei Fourth Friday.
Not a list of 50 restaurants. 😂 Just a handful of Maui places I’d genuinely mention to a friend for good food, cocktails or a fun local stop.
A couple of Maui people I personally know and feel good sending my guests to — from a Molokini captain to local concierge help.
My Maui surf and bodyboarding picks by experience level, from mellow beginner longboard waves to serious reef breaks, plus the surf checks I’d look at before heading out.
