Activities & Sports
The nearby volcanic atoll Molokini is known for terrific visibility for scuba and snorkeling. There are also many beaches where you can snorkel just offshore. Black Rock, north end of Kaanapali Beach, is one such place. Of course most developed beaches offer other aquatic activities such as surfing, kayaking, boating, etc.

Bike rentals are possible in towns allowing for road exploration. Excursions companies offer mountain bike trips down Mt. Haleakala. You will also find bike rental shops that will rent you a bike, a bike rack, and some gear so you can ride Haleakala at your own pace.

Hikers are drawn to Haleakala National Park. One good route starts from the visitor center near the top to dormant volcanic cinder cones. There's also a fantastic hike called "13 Crossings" which traverses a stream 13 times. On the way, you'll see a bamboo forest and at the end a waterfall.

Maui boasts over 15 golf courses, several ranked at or near the top worldwide in many categories. Wailea is known for its expensive golf courses.
 
Dining & Nightlife
Lahaina and Kihei are the happening night spots on the island. Many restaurants have great bars. Places like Moose McGillycuddy's and Cheeseburger in Paradise become night clubs after hours. Hard Rock Cafe is on the Front Street. Do keep in mind that parties and bars close relatively early on Maui.

Cultural performances take place at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center, Iao Theater and the Maui Myth and Magic Theatre with its ever popular stage production Ulalena.
 
Lahaina and Wailea are known for its upscale restaurants:
  • Lahaina Store Grille & Oyster Bar
  • Io
  • The Old Lahaina Luau
  • Kimo's
  • SeaWatch Restaurant
  • Wailea Steak and Seafood
Of course you will find many more great Hawaiian places in smaller villages, especially Paia.
  • Mama's Fish House, on the beach in Paia
  • Plantation House, in the Plantation Course golf clubhouse in Kapalua.
  • Hula Grill, in Ka'anapali.
  • Paia Fish Market
  • Charley's Restaurant, in Paia.
  • Jacques Bistro, in Paia
  • Hali'maile General Store, in Paia. 
Shopping
There are several areas to find good shopping in Maui, but prices can be quite inflated. ABC Stores, the island's convenience chain, can be found all over Maui and the other Hawaian Islands. They offer souvenirs and everything else you may have forgotten to pack.

In Lahaina you can walk along the main street for window shopping fun.

Kaanapali has the Whaler's Village Shops and Restaurants, home to lots of stores and restaurants, including plenty of high-end stores.

Wailea is known for its fancy shopping center.
