Introduction

Maui no ka 'oi -- Maui is the best, the most, the top of the heap. To those who know the island well, there's good reason for the superlatives. The second-largest in the Hawaiian chain, the Valley Isle has made a name for itself with its tropical allure, arts and cultural activities, and miles of perfect-tan beaches. Popularity and success have led to some modern-day problems: too many cars, for example. Still, from the chilly heights of Haleakala to the below-sea-level taro beds of Ke'anae Peninsula, Maui continues to weave a spell over the more than 2 million people who visit its shores each year. Pursuits range from hiking in a crater to swimming under a waterfall to diving with sea turtles. This is without question the most diversified island, recommended for a family or group with divergent interests.
