Drive the Road to Hana, chill at the beaches, and hike some trails. There's so much this island has to offer.
Gorgeous place with a black sand beach

There are tight turns and narrow roads, but driving the Road to Hana is 100% worth it. Take your time, make stops along the way, and go hiking. The views you'll see along this road are incredible.
Hana Highway
One of my absolute favorite hikes in Maui. Make sure you go all the way to the end to see the waterfall.
Pipiwai Trail
Many try to get sunrise tickets, but if you can't, go during sunset. It's just as beautiful.
Haleakalā National Park
If you rent a car and plan on driving the Road to Hana, stay in Paia and start your drive in the morning from here.
Pāʻia, Maui
Nice lookout close to Paia
Ho'okipa Lookout
Cool experience getting to see a pineapple farm (including baby pineapples!) and tasting fresh Maui pineapples
