After the adventure portion of the trip, we decided to head to the west side of the island to Wailea and Ka’anapali. The nicest place we stayed was Grand Walea and we enjoyed the resort and the food there. We had also gone to Kihei to explore and found a nice market that was on. Overall, the west side of Maui is quite busy.
As this side is more commercialized, we did the typical activities. All activities were fun but my favorite was trying to local cuisine, a nice boat ride, and snorkeling. We had rented snorkel gear and were going to the spots recommended. We found turtles at Hanakao’o Park. The Lual we went to was the Old Lahaina Lual and it did not disappoint. Everything was enjoyable and entertaining.
One of the areas that we did not have time to visit that was on our list was Haleakala Crater. I guess that will have to wait till the next time that we are back! If you have a chance, try the shrimp trucks and the fresh poke, which are fresh and delicious.
