About this place
Added by Matt Ford
Amazing views. A unique driving experience. Duration: the whole day. Waterfalls. Beaches. Fields.
Start near Paia on Highway 36 and head east. The road is famous for its many twists and turns, so consider taking lots of breaks to get some fresh air and avoid getting car sick. There are many stops along the way, from ice cream to medium length hikes.
Some of the Best Stops:
- Coconut Glen's: the best coconut milk ice cream you will ever have. Glen serves up healthy, tasty ice cream from his unique location at mile marker 27.5.
- Wai'anapanapa State Park: explore the lava tubes and swim at Black Rock Beach.
- Pools at Ohe'o: enjoy a short hike through a bamboo forest before arriving at the falls of Mahahiku, you can also swim in the pools below the falls.

Hana is my favorite part of the island
When we go to Maui, Hana is my favorite place. I always wish we planned more time to spend there. I can't recommend it enough.
