road to hana, pono.

Eat all the mango and ham related foods you can find.

I really only had 1 free day so I went to pearl harbor. Otherwise I just chilled on the beaches. Also if you want to swim you probably want those foot slipper things. The coral starts pretty close to the shore and you'll probably cut your feet by accidentally putting your feet down

I'm going in November. I'll let you know then.

just got back from Maui about a month ago. had an amazing time.

for suggestions on what to do:

- you absolutely need to do the Road to Hana. Highlight of my trip. Drive it, don't take a tour group because you will lose that whole adventure feel and the ability to take it at your own pace. Download a smartphone app before you go called "Road to Hana Maui GyPSy Guide" (it's on both Android and iOS, costs $5, totally worth it) and connect your phone via bluetooth so you can hear it through your car speakers. You're going to lose cell service for a lot of the Road to Hana drive but this app actually doesn't need cell service, and it's very helpful and interesting.

- Get dinner at Mama's Fish House if you like seafood - it's pretty expensive (like $60~ a plate) and you need to make reservations months in advance, but get on it ASAP because this was honestly the best seafood dinner I ever had

- Go up to the Haleakala national park. I went up there to watch the sunrise and it was incredible, but very fucking cold

- Snorkeling, there are a lot of great spots

- If you like beer, Maui Brewing Co is on Maui (obviously) and it's very good. They had like 24 beers on tap and their stuff is all over the island. I haven't been able to find Maui beer in the continental US so far so enjoy it there. There's also a winery in Maui called Maui Wines and they have an awesome pineapple wine.
