Maui County consists of the Island of Maui, Molokai, Lanai, Kaho’olawe, and the volcanic islet of Molokini. Maui is the top Hawaiian Island to visit, and that is why people say ‘Maui No Ka Oi,’ meaning Maui is the best in the ancient Hawaiian language. When traveling to Maui, visitors will see that the topography is the most diverse of all Hawaiian Islands allowing guests to explore areas from the shoreline to the top of Mt. Haleakala all in one day. The most popular activities are Maui snorkeling tours, whale watching, beach hopping, hiking, surfing, farm tours, and dining at a host of amazing food establishments.
