Maui has countless restaurants with amazing awards and stunning build outs to impress anyone who walks through their doors. Maui also has a growing number of Road Side Food Trucks (as it seems everywhere in the world does) and Food Truck Parks all over the island. Now days you will find 5 star resort quality plates pumping out of these small kitchens on wheels all over Maui. Simply google your general area here on Maui and, 'Food truck' and you'll be able to find a grouping of trucks to feed everyone from the grandparents to the kids for a price tag of $8 - $23 per person. Its also worth noting as a former restaurant manager, that these food trucks...
There are a few things to consider bringing with you to any Maui beach you decide to visit. Having been born and raised on Maui, you would think I have a pretty concrete packing list, but there are still things I forget. Below is a list that will span the needs for a solo day trip to the beach, to a day with the entire family.
Maui Ocean Center - For babies, kids and adults alike, this is a fun and hands on experience for the entire family. There's an aquarium tunnel that makes you feel like your swimming with the sharks, a touching pool to feel the slimy sea cucumber, and plenty of live displays to see all the sea life that makes Hawaii so unique.

Just off the side of the winding road is an amazing view point to set up a couple beach chairs and enjoy the sunset from a view that's arguably more impressive than any other location on Maui. There is a chance you may get some cloud cover, but even if that happens, its still a great spot to relax and gaze over the open fields of green grass. If you decide to make the journey, along with chairs, I would suggest bringing a blanket or two (hotel comforter), warm clothes,...
1. All of Maui's beaches are public. This allows you to enjoy any beach or shoreline you want without the worry of trespassing on someones property. 2.

With tons of hiking, your sure to find a trail all to yourself! 5. Want to impress someone? How about visiting the most remote place in the world? Maui, as part of the Hawaiian chain of islands, is...
