https://maps.app.goo.gl/sbPZZtVbh7RHpuf46 on road to hana...this one is a must, imo. hike through bamboo to a little waterfall. climb that one to the next and the next. I think there are 4 falls. 30-60 minutes of awesomeness. watershoes and comfort climbing cliffs (ropes and ladders were there in the summer making it manageable) https://maps.app.goo.gl/6KodcCaCxGYDERV66 iao park - small "in bounds" trails. can go farther, but it's not legal. https://maps.app.goo.gl/NVY6hdc1McGGRz4n8 waihou spring trail if open: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ByRpVaTT4Zte1nhSA cool lava tubes! lava fields (it's a hot and dry hike, so bring extra water) https://maps.app.goo.gl/MJzuucGG4ZCRMDfo7 drive 340 counterclockwise (this is more challenging than road to hana) and see the nakalele blowhole https://maps.app.goo.gl/6KodcCaCxGYDERV66 Falls and bamboo forest at wailua park https://maps.app.goo.gl/2BK5XKYG8XTV8uHUA for beaches, so many. Ho‘okipa, just past mama's fish house (btw, make a reservation now) is fantastic for sea turtles and maybe seals. https://maps.app.goo.gl/e2BMsMdmeDgcG2Qv7 paia secret beach if you want to go nude https://maps.app.goo.gl/4p3EcNvwhX8SoZuL6 little beach if you got a little wenis https://maps.app.goo.gl/GB7gTZBMwr2rrjM5A best for body surfing (or surf surfing for a beginner) hamoa (all three beaches past hana are cool) https://maps.app.goo.gl/cskSEKQHFpvcWK3AA black sand beach (requires state park reservation)worth a stop https://maps.app.goo.gl/cskSEKQHFpvcWK3AA cliff jumping off black rock at kaanapali beach (small public parking lot near weston...might get lucky) https://maps.app.goo.gl/dScGjjYbZsE6kBaXA food: komoda bakery for donuts. good shops in makawao too. https://maps.app.goo.gl/FZRA6xChDRK9fgT19 choice - they lost the first location the fire, so buy stuff https://maps.app.goo.gl/YzfyBEUgaMQfgmPK9 poke bobs in hana was great https://maps.app.goo.gl/nou3JJ4DJpa8cnRXA takamiya market poke and prepared foods. good and relatively cheap grup to take on a hike. https://maps.app.goo.gl/r43nVCnNqvUQApjs6 Previous Message Haven't been there in over 20 years, so looking for specific companies you used for excursions, activities, etc. Also interested restaurant recs (is Mama's Fish House still a thing?). Mahalo.
