Road to Hana Tours
Maui's Most Legendary Drive — 64 Miles of Pure Wonder
The Drive That Changes Everything
The Road to Hana is not just a drive — it's a journey through the most lush, dramatic, and untouched landscape in all of Hawaii. Sixty-four miles of winding two-lane highway through ancient rainforest, past dozens of waterfalls, over 59 one-lane bridges, and along a coastline of black sand beaches and volcanic sea cliffs.
The destination is Hana — a small, quiet town that feels like old Hawaii. But every local will tell you: the journey is the destination.

The Road to Hana has dozens of stops — here are the ones you absolutely cannot miss.
Twin Falls

Tip: Arrive early to beat the crowds. Bring water shoes.
Garden of Eden Arboretum
A stunning 26-acre botanical garden with over 700 labeled tropical plants, peacocks roaming freely, and the famous Puohokamoa Falls overlook used in Jurassic Park.
Tip: Small admission fee. Allow 45–60 minutes.
Ke'anae Peninsula
A dramatic flat lava peninsula jutting into the ocean, covered in taro fields and home to a historic Hawaiian village. One of the most photogenic spots on the entire drive.
Tip: Stop at the Aunty Sandy's banana bread stand — legendary.
Wailua Valley Lookout
A sweeping panoramic view over the lush Wailua Valley, taro paddies, and the coastline below. On clear days you can see all the way to the ocean.

Wai'anapanapa State Park
The most dramatic stop on the route — jet-black volcanic sand, sea arches, blowholes, and a coastal hiking trail. Reservations required to enter the park.
Tip: Book your timed entry permit weeks in advance at hawaiistateparks.reserveamerica.com
Hana Town
The quiet, unhurried town at the end of the road. Grab lunch, visit the Hana Cultural Center, and explore the black sand beach at Koki Beach nearby.
Tip: Hasegawa General Store is a must-visit — been open since 1910.

Jet-black volcanic sand, sea arches, blowholes, and a dramatic coastal trail. One of the most visually striking beaches in all of Hawaii — and a reservation is required to visit.
