Enjoy a Great Maui Vacation

According to surveys, the two most visited islands in the US are Maui and Hawaii. You can either take the word of those who have gone there, or see for yourself by planning your next great vacation in Maui.

As one of the Hawaiian islands, Maui is often called the "Valley Isle" because of it's location between two volcanoes. It is the second largest of Hawaii's eight islands and has many tropical rain forests, pristine beaches, clear waters, green pasture and rocky cliffs.

The island is a great place to visit throughout the year, as the weather stays a comfortable 75 to 85 degrees all year round. If you are interested in spending your next vacation here, try booking online or visit your local travel agent. This would certainly be a memorable vacation and be sure to bring back lots of souvenirs and pictures.

Tourists can stay either at the western or eastern side of the island. The western side is the biggest tourist destination and where most of the resorts are located, in the towns of Lahaina, Kaanapali and Kapalua. However, if you want to avoid the crowds, try the east side where you can trek through the rainforest, see waterfalls and cross over land bridges.

How can you start your tour in Maui? Well, you can probably start by hopping on board the Sugar Cane Train in Kaanapali and relax in an open-air coach while visiting the historic town of Lahaina. You could then snorkel at Wailea Beach or relax in its waters and see the black lava formations that mingle with the sand.

For those who don't want to swim, they can go whale watching; join a fishing cruise or a scenic sightseeing cruise. This will give tourists the chance to learn more about the island and intermingle with others.

In the evening, you can enjoy a dinner cruise with lively music and dancing in the perfect setting for a romantic evening. These boats usually depart on the west side of the island and many of these can be found in Lahaina. These cruises usually last about two and a half hours and it is recommended to arrive early.

When you return to the island, you may have a drink at the one of the open air bars or watch a fire dance. This show will surely amaze you as these individuals are able to perform their demonstration unscathed.

Before you leave, you should check out some of the art galleries. Who knows, you may find something here that you would like to buy and display in your home.

A vacation in Maui is not only for families but for couples as well who may be celebrating their honeymoon or anniversary. This provides you the option to stay at a secluded place so as to enjoy each other's company without disturbances.

This vacation in Maui may be your first, but surely this will not be your last. With the breathtaking views and the friendly people, chances are you will return again in years ahead or even recommend this place to family members and friends

Has anyone stayed on the north-west side of Maui (near Lahaina)?

I'm going in July and was wondering about any great deals, hotels, or must dos while I'm there. Oh, and also how the taxi/shuttle system is there.

Yes! I stayed at the Ka'anapali Beach Hotel. It is rated as the #2 Best value in the WORLD for hotels and is "The most Hawaiin hotel."

Lahaina man's 5-year term 'last shot' at turning around
A Lahaina man who was on probation when he participated in a burglary and assault last year was sentenced Wednesday to a five-year prison term, the Maui News reported. Jairus Biga, 24, could have faced a longer prison sentence if not for a plea agreement reducing a first-degree burglary charge, 2nd Circuit Judge Joel August said.
