Best Rainy Day Activities on Maui
While Wailea, Kihei, and Lahaina tend to be dry pretty much year-round, there are still days when it rains. Normally, the rains come in the form of sh...
Some would say that Maui is made for Instagram. With world-class sunsets and ocean views, you can never go wrong with sunset shots from the shore. But if you want to spice up your Instagram with some killer shots that will leave your friends and followers in awe, check out these 10 locations. Make sure you tag #hawaiioceanproject in your photos so we point more eyeballs in your direction! And please follow our Maui Instagram account!
Lanai has multiple diverse snorkel spots that are rarely visited in contrast to other famous Maui County snorkel destinations. That means you can capture mind-blowing shots with your GoPro or phone at empty reefs. And yes, we've been known to get mugged by a pod of dolphins.
The Olivine Pools are flat-out beautiful... on a calm day. The Pools are also one of the deadliest locations on Maui when there's a decent sized surf. So please be careful. For more information, we put together this handy little guide.

Located just outside Paia Town, Twin Falls is generally the first stop on the Road to Hana. The Falls themselves are located less than a mile from the road. Take a swimsuit because the waters are clean and refreshing!
Iao Valley is a short (less than 10 minutes) drive from Wailuku Town. But once you enter the park, civilization will feel hundreds of miles away.
You may look at this picture and wonder where the bay is. Well, to get to Honolua Bay proper, you need to walk about a half-mile from the road along a tree-lined trail. And what trees they are!
The Bamboo Forest is located in Haleakala National Park. So if you're already up there for the sunrise, we highly recommend the 4-mile round-trip hike. At the end of the hike, there's a 400-foot waterfall, which is an outstanding photo in itself. But the Bamboo Forest itself is less than a mile into the hike.
We listed this last because finding the sunflowers can be hit or miss. Sunflowers can grow anytime of year in Hawaii, so it really just matters on when they're planted. Once you arrive on Maui, you can find out where they're blooming with a simple Google search. Good luck!
The Haleakala Sunrise topped our list, but if you miss the sunrise or forget to make an appointment, don't fret! In some ways, Haleakala at night is even better. You will find few places in the world with better views of the stars. Plus, the crowds are WAY more manageable.
