3 Best Hawaii Volcano Tours On Maui
Taking Hawaii volcano tours during the course of your visit on Maui is an excellent way to spend your time. What’s better is that there is no shortage of options when it comes to ways to take the tour. While there are also tours that lead you into the West Maui volcano, it is the Haleakala volcano tours that every visitor to Maui must do at least once. Here are the three best ways to do it:
Haleakala Hawaii Volcano Tours Taking you From Crater to Coastline
A really neat way to tour Haleakala is by starting at the Paia Plantation for a continental breakfast before making your way to the 10,023 foot summit, Pu’u Ula’ula (Red Hill.) As the story goes, it was in this location that the demi-god Maui lassoed the sun and held her there until she agreed to travel more slowly over the Hawaiian skies.
From the summit, you’ll likely travel down to Makawao town, which is known as the paniolo, or cowboy, country of Maui. Further down the slopes you’ll enter the ever-green area of Haiku where you’ll be able to swim in freshwater pools and eat tropical fruit freshly picked off the tree. Round off the day by watching the spectacular waves crashing a Ho’okipa Beach, the wind-surfing capitol of the world!
Haleakala Hawaii Volcano Tours Done on a Bicycle
Did you know that the road leading between Haleakala’s base and summit is one of the fastest gains of elevation in the shortest distance in the world? If you’re up for a challenge, you can bike from the coast to the summit, but most people just go for the downhill joyride.
Regardless of which you do, while you’re up at the summit don’t forget to look for the Brocken Bow effect. This is a naturally occurring phenomenon which happens in only two places in the world: on Haleakala and in the Harz Mountains of Germany!
Haleakala Hawaii Volcano Tours by Helicopter
Another really neat way of touring Haleakala is by first taking the road to Hana in a luxury limovan (wear your seatbelts—this is a very winding and narrow road!) before hopping on a helicopter to fly over the volcano’s moonscape-like summit.
Standing atop Haleakala, especially at sunrise, is a truly breathtaking experience. If you’ve ever wondered what it was like to be standing level with the clouds, you’ll find out by taking one of these spectacular Hawaii volcano tours!
