Join an excursion with Maui Eco-Adventures Latatude to visit the nature preserve of Maunalei Arboretum, a rainforest and area farmed by ancient Hawaiians, and another excursion to the village and valley of Kahakuloa or, starting very early to avoid dealing with oncoming cars on a (somewhat terrifying) one-lane road, drive yourself to Kahakuloa with a stop at the ocean-charged Nakalele Blowhole.
Drive to and walk around the beautiful lava landscape, steep cliffs, arches, rocky coves, tidepools and blow holes at Nakalele Point and, for advanced divers only, experience awesome diving straight out to sea along the wall.
