SUPER REASONS TO VISIT MAUI.
Touring along the Maui coast is a magical experience. You paddle pristine waters over the corals with turtles popping up around you, with the view of Lanai Island one side and a palm fringed shore on the other. Watching the sunset from your board on the south west coast is mystical; the orange light cover the barren mountains and the scenery turns into a living surf art painting.
The Downwinders are famous here on Maui. You can surf nice sized bumps all along the wild and green leafy north shore, with the ring cloud hugging the summit of the Haleakala volcano and walls of rain traveling across the horizon leaving rainbows in their trail.
Whales: During the winter-spring months you can be driving the southern roads watching whales jumping in the ocean right in front of you. You can be surfing or cruising around and see huge fountains just a few meters away. That’s when you know that the greatest show is about to begin, you are lucky enough to have crossed paths with one of those beautiful giants travelling thousands of kilometers across the ocean. They don’t come too close, so it’s not scary. It’s just beautiful. And if you want to hear them singing, just immerse your head in the water, it doesn’t matter if they are far away; you will be able to hear their voices! I guarantee you will come out of the water with the biggest smile ever!
Little fun waves, for beginners or kids, you have plenty of options and the atmosphere is relaxed. Laughs, safe, easy… The dad with the baby on the nose of the longboard, the girl with the dog, the tiny kids, the old ladies learning… Everyone’s happy and sharing the waves and the moment – it’s like living in a postcard. Surf. If you want action, you can find it! You have the well-known spots of the North Shore where you will find some rights, lefts, barrels, the famous Peahi’i (Jaws). And if you like to surf uncrowded spots, you can also paddle out and explore the outer reefs where you can surf down mountains of water. Just check the wave report and chose your spot. But don’t be reckless, you are in Hawaii and the ocean is powerful and can change very fast.
