Whether you're looking to visit one or several of Hawaii's islands on your honeymoon , you will definitely want to consider Maui , where Pacific waters, golden sands, palm trees and a backdrop of lush scenery completes a picture of paradise that would be fitting for any "Wish you were here" postcard. It is an island where you can enjoy stunning sunsets, luaus, surf lessons, biking, dining, golf, coastal drives and above all, romance. After Oahu, Maui is the most visited of Hawaii's islands. The island's western shores are where you'll find the most popular resort areas and the island's best beaches, including Kaanapali. Kaanapali is considered by many to be the best beach on the island (and some might make the case that it is the best beach in all of Hawaii). Its golden sands stretch for four full miles, and all along, you'll find hotels and open-air restaurants where you can dine alfresco, as well as the popular Whaler's Village Shopping Center. Kaanapali is also a great location for active pursuits, such as body-boarding, kayaking, sailing and of course surfing. Surfing is the favorite pastime in Hawaii, and if you've never surfed before, Maui's western shores are a great place to have your first lesson. There are many surf schools and rental shops, and taking a lesson as a couple can be a fun, memorable experience to share as newlyweds. Couples who want to snorkel will want to check out Kapula Beach, which is nearby Kaanapali, and is regarded as a fantastic snorkeling spot where you can swim among colorful reef fish. If you're a couple that enjoys hiking, you will want to visit Haleakala National Park, where you can hike 10,000 feet to the top of the world’s largest dormant volcano and enjoy stunning views of the island. You can also sign up for group hikes that get you to the top of the Halekala Crater in time to watch a sunrise, as well as downhill biking tours. A very popular experience that many visitors to Maui put on their "must do" lists is renting a car for a scenic drive along Maui's eastern coastline. In contrast to the sandy golden shores of the island's western coastline, the eastern coastline is rugged, and also incredibly scenic. It is also very accessibly due to a 52-mile paved road that crosses over fifty one-lane bridges and bends around over 600 curves as it passes verdant rainforests, cascading waterfalls and dramatic views of the coastline. Major stops along the way include Hana Cultural Center & Museum, which houses artifacts from the island's history; Hana Beach Park, which is a great place to swim and sunbathe; and Oheo Gluch and its natural playground of waterfalls and streams that flow from pool to pool.
