I’m not much of a golfer. It’s not that I don’t like the sport, it’s just that I lack the concentration, coordination and know-how to be good at it. Reid is a pretty decent golfer when he gets the opportunity, but it doesn’t happen that often. If I was a golfer I think I would plan a golfing trip to Hawaii (honestly I would probably plan a trip to Hawaii even if I didn’t golf http://www.hawaiigolf.com/).
Right now isn’t exactly golfing season here in Utah but the weather is perfect in Hawaii and it’s a destination that everyone can agree on. There’s plenty to do for those who aren’t into golf and those who are, have a plethora of resorts and courses to choose from. Three reasons why Hawaii attracts golfers (http://www.golfnow.com/) from all around the world? Breathtaking scenery, world championship course designs and signature holes. It’s a golfer’s heaven. There are even over 70 golf courses in Hawaii to choose from.
Do you ever have those days where you wonder what in the world you are doing with your life, how you got here or what were you thinking? I have those days often. More and more lately as I am uncovering the challenges of being a work at home mom with an active 6 month old, an always-growing pile of laundry and dishes, dust bunnies in every corner and goals up the wahzoo but little to no time to accomplish them.
The road to Hana is a can’t miss day trip when visiting the island of Maui. It’s lush, beautiful and breathtaking. There is so much to see and do along the way that you it will take you quite a few hours before you actually reach the quaint city of Hana. There are waterfalls, lava tubes, hikes, black, red, and white sand beaches. But there are so many places that write about the road to Hana that it’s really Hana I want to write about.
This is part three of the three part series: 3 Things worth paying for in Maui. DTM’s recommendations on three things you can’t miss out on during your stay on the beautiful Island of Maui.
#3 Take a Whale Watching Cruise: Every year between November and May Humpback whales swarm the warm waters around the Hawaiian Islands. Maui is one of the hotspots for these marine mammals to breed and give birth. There are so many whales hanging out down there that you can often see them from shore but if you really want to get a more personal experience spring for a whale watching tour. We went with the Pacific Whale Foundation because of their price, reputation and the fact that their proceeds go to marine research of whales dolphins and the ocean.
The ‘Iao Valley, is the site of one of the most famous battles that occurred in 1790 and changed Hawaii history forever when King Kamehameha I destroyed the Maui army in an effort to unite the Hawaiian Islands. But now it is a state park found at the end of Highway 32 in Central Maui. The lovely, deep valley of ‘Iao features the ‘Iao Needle, a natural rock pinnacle presiding over the ‘Iao stream and surrounded by the walls of the Pu’u Kukui Crater. Once used as a natural altar, the 2,250-foot stone pillar covered in green, is a basaltic core that has survived eons of swirling water.
