Maui, the Valley Isle

Driving on MauiMaui, one of the Hawaiian Islands, is the second-largest island in Hawaii and the seventeenth-largest in the United States. It’s often referred to as the “Valley Isle” because of its vast, fertile region nestled between two active volcanoes. During World War II, US forces used Maui as a hub for training, planning, and leisure activities.

Kihei, a rapidly growing town in the US, faces the challenge of preserving Maui’s natural beauty while promoting urbanization and growth. Maui’s scenic landscape also attracts many senior citizens who choose to retire on the island.

Maui is home to several famous resort areas such as Lahaina, Kaanapali, Kihei, Kapalua, Wailea, and Hana. Hana is a small village on the eastern coast, known for its remote location accessible only via a single narrow scenic roadway. Many cruise ships make stops at Maui, and they dock at Kahului or anchor offshore at Lahaina, which was once a whaling village.

Every year, countless tourists flock to Maui to experience its stunning beaches, rainforests, volcanoes, waterfalls, and of course, swimming pools. To explore the island, visitors require reliable transportation.
