From November through April the giant humpback whales make their winter home in Maui's offshore waters. They come here to mate and give birth to their young. This endangered species is famous because of its gentleness, its oceanic gymnastics and its haunting song. The Pacific Whale Foundation offers whale watching excursions aboard both power and sail boats. Fees utilized for cetacean research. There are three whaling museums: the Carthaginian, anchored in Lahaina Harbor, The Lahaina Whaling Museum, and also the outdoor museum in the Whaler's Village shopping complex in Kaanapali. Planning your Hawaii Family Vacation in November could be a sure way too please the entire family.
Ho'okipa Beach is the windsurfer's mecca, and the charming town of Pa`ia is its "cool" capital. The perfect waves and brisk onshore breezes are ideal for the fleets of neon-bright sails streaking across the waves. Once a plantation town, Paia now has gotten hip. It now has boutiques, antique shops, art galleries and many very good restaurants, to add to its windsurfing shops. Search for Hawaii Hotels at 3DHawaii.com and plan your windsurfing holiday now.
Walk through a rainforest echoing with the songs of birds found nowhere else on the planet, or along a rugged lava shoreline spewing giant geysers, or into mysterious sea caves steeped in ancient legend. There are trails to waterfalls with plunge pools for swimming, and walks into valleys so deep they never see a sunrise nor a sunset. There are even trails into the dramatic lunaresque landscape of Haleakala crater.
Few places are as committed to bikeways as Maui. It's possible to bicycle from the East End of the island at the Wailea Resort to Kapalua on the West End. Much of the ride is along spectacular shoreline road. Presently you will find guided downhill bicycle tours from the summit of Haleakala Volcano through the flower farms and small towns of Upcountry right to the beach at Pa`ia. In 38 miles the elevation drops 10,000 feet.
Dive and snorkel sites are world class. There are two marine conservation areas, one at Honolua Bay on West Maui and the other at Molokini, a partially submerged volcanic crater offshore at Wailea. Because of the contours of the crater, it's like swimming in an aquarium. The nearby Lana`i Cathedrals is said to be one of the most stunning dive sites in the world. In addition, there is also a sunken US submarine to explore. Glass bottom boats including a pleasure submarine open up the wonders of the Hawaiian reef to non-swimmers.
