Haleakala
         • Haleakala National Park: 808 572-4400, If you are getting up very early due to the time change, you might want to catch the strikingly beautiful sunrise at Haleakala Crater as it comes up out of the ocean over the clouds. It is extremely cold until the sun comes up and is about a two-hour drive away. In the alternative, you could get up when you feel like it, have a wonderful breakfast at the Kula Lodge on the way there and take a two to three hour hike through the crater which has been likened to the surface of the moon. It is a terrain unlike any you have ever been to, but the footing is difficult on rock and sand and the hike could be demanding.

Waihee Valley Hike
         • An approximately 30 minute drive to the Waihee Valley and then hike up this remote valley about two miles over Indiana Jones style swinging bridges to the end where there is a large pool beneath a waterfall and a rope swing to jump out into the middle of the pool. The hike is up hill, but not particularly difficult although there could be rain and mosquitoes as you are going into the wetter part of the Island. The lao River swim is located nearby and you could drive within five minutes of the lao River swimming hole for a dip.

Rope Bridge Rope Bridge

Pipiwai Trail/Waterfall Hike
         • Park at the parking lot past the 42 mile marker. This is a 2 mile hike each way through an outstanding bambooforest, ending with a waterfall. The trail is down the highway toward the Ohe'o Bridge near mile marker 42, the trail follows the stream. It is on the other side of the 7 Pools. As your walking you will go through a gate, please close behind you, as there are cows up here. You will go past a great banyan tree with protruding roots, don't trip! Then continue through the bamboo forest to Waimoku Falls. These falls originate out of Mount Haleakala where more than 300 inches of rain falls annually. We love this hike, we do this before going to the 7 pools. That way we can swim in the pools afterwards.

Snorkeling at La Perouse Bay & Fish Reserve at Makena Landing
         • Just 15 minutes south of Wailea, considered one of the best snorkeling areas on the islands. Large pods of dolphins are commonly seen around 7 AM. Enter anywhere along the shore just past the house on the private beach.  When snorkeling go to the right, past the private estate, each successive cove gets clearer & the fish life gets better and better.  There are no lifeguards or facilities, wear sturdy shoes and bring water. Go south to the end of Makena, there is parking by the ocean and more by the La Perouse Historical marker.  If there are large waves breaking onto the shore don't even try to enter the water.  During the summer the south swell can make the bay hazardous for snorkeling.
