Maui Loves Families, Families Love Maui

Here's the closest thing to a sure bet you can find anywhere: The kids will never be bored on Maui. Of course, that sort of depends on the parents, naturally, but if Mom and Dad are willing to get out there and recreate, Maui has more to offer than ten theme parks—and it's all real, natural, educational, and fun. From "Water" (beaches, catamarans, kayaks, submarines, water slides), to "Wonder" (Maui Ocean Center, Hawaii Nature Center, Maui Tropical Plantation, Alexander & Baldwin Sugar Museum, lao Needle, Whale Museum), to a solid dose of unadulterated "Wow!" (Sugar Cane Train, Haleakala Crater, helicopter flight-seeing, Hawai`i Experience Domed Theater, horseback rides, downhill biking, fire dancers, and real cowboys), Maui has it all. You can picnic by a waterfall, hike through misty eucalyptus forests, hang out at a working cattle ranch. Play minature golf, play tennis, play beach volleyball. Learn to snorkel, learn to hula, learn to boogieboard—learn to live again, together.
