Maui County

A county centered on the island of Maui, known for sunrise at Haleakalā, the Road to Hāna and winter whale watching.

Maui County includes the islands of Maui, Lānaʻi, Molokaʻi and uninhabited Kahoʻolawe. On Maui, Haleakalā National Park offers sunrise views from the volcano's summit (reservations are required for the sunrise period), the Road to Hāna is lined with enchanting waterfalls and rainforest, Kāʻanapali on the west coast and Wailea on the south coast are beach resort areas, and Molokini Crater is good for snorkeling. Humpback whale season runs from about December to April. Lahaina in West Maui was severely damaged by the 2023 wildfire, so check local openings before you travel. The gateway is Kahului Airport, and getting around the island is mainly by car.
