Another feat is the road to Haleakala, although it's nothing like the Hana Highway. The 38-mile zigzag ride climbs from the sea to the summit at 10,023 feet. From the top, you can hike or ride a mule into the crater that measures 21 miles around and 3,000 feet deep. He released it after it promised to travel more slowly over the skies. The place to be for sunset is on the ocean.
Tour boats go out for cocktails, dinner or dinner-dancing.
The Teralani is one of numerous ships that ply the waters off the shores of Maui. On its nightly two-hour champagne sunset cruise, it plies passengers with bubbly, beer, mai tais and wine. The catamaran embarks and disembarks passengers from Kaanapali Beach, using its motors to maneuver the surf. Once under way, the crew hoists the mainsail and the catamarn tacks out to sea. We float upon the water, thoughts lost in the blue Pacific.
