3 Ways to explore Maui nui

Maui Nui – the islands within Maui County – is an amazing place to visit! Exploring it by camper van, foot, and boat are three excellent ways to experience everything this beautiful area has to offer.


Of course, number one is our favorite option: taking out a camper van is one of the BEST ways to explore Maui! With a camper van, you can travel at your own pace and stop wherever you want to enjoy the scenery. There are several campgrounds on the island, and most have facilities such as showers and restrooms. The best way to enjoy your time on Maui via camper van is to plan where you’ll stay each night (aka campsites), and leave the rest of your plans open to ebb and flow with island time!


Exploring Maui by foot is another great option. There are many hiking trails on the island that offer stunning views of the mountains, ocean, and waterfalls. Some of the most popular trails include the Pipiwai Trail, the Waihee Ridge Trail, and the Haleakala Crater Trail. Be sure to bring plenty of water and wear comfortable shoes, as some of these trails can be challenging! Check out our post on Challenging Maui Hikes You Must Check Out!


Lastly, exploring Maui nui by boat is an unforgettable experience. The island offers many opportunities to go snorkeling, scuba diving, and whale watching – but you can venture even further off-shore to the gorgeous island of Lanai. Take a day trip via ferry to the island to enjoying pristine beaches and more untouched island vibes, which will give you a unique experience to cherish.


Overall, exploring Maui Nui by camper van, foot, and boat is an amazing opportunity to see everything these beautiful island communities have to offer!
