My Maui Fishing Experiences
Despite having had lived briefly with a river in my backyard, my total lifetime fishing time probably added up to less than 30 minutes (until this last year.) It’s something that has always interested me, so when I was invited on my 1st Maui spearfishing trip, I jumped at the opportunity. […]

South Pacific Kayaks Review
Beach life wakes up early on Maui to take advantage of the pristine conditions and glassy water. Not being a morning person, the 7 a.m. beach check-in originally felt dreadfully early and potentially chilly. […]

2013 Halloween in Lahaina
Halloween is usually an exciting event wherever you are, but Halloween in Lahaina definitely steps it up a notch, and 2013 was no exception. The County of Maui offered public transportation specifically for the event, with “Halloween Express” busses running directly to Lahaina from both the Kihei Aquatic Center and War Memorial Parking Lot in Wailuku. However, if you prefer to travel a bit more in style, the Pride of Maui offered a special Halloween Cruise running directly from Maalaea Harbor to Lahaina and back again. […]

A snorkeler’s View
When snorkeling, most enjoy the colorful shallows of coastal reefs due to the density of fish and sea life found there. Rocky volcanic caverns and intricately woven coral reefs provide sanctuary for small and medium sized fish. Some of these active reefs are found just off the shore, while others require boat access.

Hamoa Beach, Hana, Maui
Hana’s Hamoa Beach – Ancient Sailing Port by Douglas Bowser As a professional photographer living on Maui for the last 16 years, I feel so lucky to have seen so many different areas of this amazing island. Many of these regions like Hamoa Beach, are always making some top 5 list, and are of course beautiful. But Hamoa is so small compared to many Maui beaches, and unlike the larger and more well known ones located on the south and west sides of the island, Hamoa is small and hard to find. Hamoa has a small pavilion and a few chairs put out by Hotel Hana and access is a steep path coming down from a narrow road with little parking. I had little appreciation for it until I went out on a Hana tour and learned the stories of this area from a local born tour driver. (Valley Isle Excursions toll free: 1-877-871-5224) […]

Maui Film Festival
By far, our favorite event of the year on Maui is the Maui Film Festival (June 13th-17th.) Watching the sunset over the ocean, then walking over to the grass of a golf course to watch a double feature under the stars? Are you kidding me? And add all the fun parties before and after the films. It’s blissfully fun. So you want to go? The Maui Film Festival usually runs in mid June of each year, so there’s plenty of time to get ready. We’ve decided to give you a little heads up on what you might need in order to enjoy the festival to its fullest. […]

Makawao Forest Reserve Hike
Yesterday we did a great hike in Upcountry Maui. We headed just past Piiholo Ziplines to do a 5.2 mile hike on the Kahakapao loop. We took our baby girl (of whom did an amazing job enduring the bouncing and jostling.) She loved the smell of Eucalyptus trees, the beautiful surroundings, and the sounds of the birds. […]

Big Wave Surfing at JAWS
We’d like to share some incredible photos that Michael Chad Photography took recently when Jaws was breaking. Even though the waves didn’t reach record size this day, they’re by no means small. It’s frightening enough to think about being towed into Maui waves on a surfboard, but imagine kitesurfing into these massive waves! I think it’s safe to say that these guys have balls. […]
