Central Maui

Will have about 10 hours to explore Central Maui, out of Kahului on the 4th of July. What is a must-see?

Central Maui

Well, not much to see in Central Maui, but assuming you will have a car you can go just about anyplace on the island, except maybe Hana. Maui is pretty much a small island. On July 4 there will be a parade in Lahaina and the rodeo in Makawao. Either option would be fun. You could spend the day in Lahaina, and drive further up to Kapalua, Honolua Bay, or all the way around. Upcountry you can explore Makawao and drive up Haleakala, then trip around Pa`ia town for a while or head out to Ho`okipa to check out the wind surfers. Plenty options!

I assume you will coming off of a cruise ship, yeah? Without a car you%26#39;ll be limited to the commercial/retail areas around the harbor.

Central Maui - Iao Valley.

Paia area is close to the airport too.

Yes, we%26#39;re getting off a ship at Kahului, and then the next day at Lahaina. We have a car both days. We thought about the road to Hana, but decided it would take too much time.
