Nice little downhill hike to the blowhole. Go at high tide for the best spews! Bring water and closed toe shoes. It can get a bit slippery on the way down. Probably a 30 minute hike down the blowhole from the parking area. Awesome to see! Plus, there's a banana bread booth at the top. Some of the best on the island. (mama lei's).

Great, family friendly hike. Access to The third falls can often be shut down due to flash flooding, but you can still have some fun walking around the ground. Parking is $10, but you need to get there before 9am, or the place gets packed. If you're feeling young, you can actually jump off of all three falls (the third falls being the largest and most fun!).

One of the top 10 things that you'll ever see, a Haleakala sunset. The sunrises are packed and very cold. Sunsets are just as pretty, and you can take your time on the drive up. The scenery is amazing! Dont be afraid of encountering some rain on the way up. You'll rise above it, eventually. Bring blankets and warm clothes and be prepared to the beauty.

The waters can get a bit rough here, especially later in the day. Great place to watch kite surfing. Also, the BEST PLACE TO SEE TURTLES. If the weather is good, you can snorkel with them. If not, you can find 10-50 of these beautiful creatures sunning on the beach at all times.

Awesome hike with not much better views anywhere else, other than Haleakala. Get there no later than 8am. The main parking lot opens at 7am, and it's full by 7:45am. If it's full, you'll have to park downhill about a mile in the overflow lot. NOT FUN! PLEASE NOTE: If you want to do this hike, get there very early and plan to be done BEFORE lunch. The weather can get hairy up there later in the day. Bring plenty of water, some snacks and additional layers. It gets cold near the top.

Not a traditional sand beach (all rock), but the snorkeling is tremendous. It's a cool little 15 minute walk through the old (now extinct) town of Honolua that was destroyed by a tsunami years ago. You'll still see some remnants though. You can do this on your own, so waste your money on a fancy snorkel charter.
