Most
honeymooners do not know what state of mind they will be in after that
magical day. You don't know what types of passions will be running through
your veins and what urges you will need addressed.
That
is why it is the best idea to go somewhere that is as versatile as you
want to be. Maui is the island that has so much to offer that you cannot
go wrong. Whatever you want is readily available.
Maui
honeymoons can be as private and intimate as you want. You can stay in
your room and cook or order in every meal of you whole trip. Or you can
get out and enjoy the sites and the ocean activities. If you want to go
crazy, there are clubs and bars everywhere that will let you dance the
night away.
Maui's prime resort
areas are Kapalua, Kaanapali, Kihei, Wailea and Makena.
Strung like jewels on the sunny western and southern shores of Maui, they
offer pristine beaches and a wide range of hotel and condominium
accommodations. At serene, secluded Hana, you'll discover Hawaii the way
it used to be.
Then
there are the 42 miles of world famous beaches, ranging Only on Maui...
from the little jewel of Red Sand Beach to the black sand beach at Waianapanapa State Park. The best snorkeling is at Honolua Bay or the
small islet of Molokini, a submerged crater.
For
the nature enthusiast, Maui has breathtaking hiking trails. The Hawaii
Nature Center in Iao Valley is a good starting place. The rangers at
Haleakala National Park lead free nature walks, both at the 10,000 foot
summit of Maui's awe-inspiring, long-dormant volcano and at Oheo Gulch
with its famous Seven Pools.
One
of the best ways to experience Upcountry Maui is on horseback. The green
pastures and sweeping vistas will remind you of range land in Wyoming. And Makawao town provides a taste of the "Old West."
D iscover the fascinating artifacts of Maui's ancient
culture at the Bailey House Museum or explore the island's heiau ruins
(Hawaiian religious temples). If you get a chance, don't miss the
performance of hula kahiko (ancient hula) by one of Maui's hula halau
(hula schools). |
