Overview

Hop aboard our breezy open-air vehicle for an unforgettable adventure along South Maui’s volcanic coast. Enjoy spectacular ocean views as we travel through some of Maui’s most fascinating natural surroundings.

Get out and explore several stops along the way, including beautiful Maluaka Beach, the striking black sands of Oneuli Black Sand Beach, and the rugged terrain of ʻĀhihi-Kīnaʻu Natural Area Reserve. See Puʻu Ōlaʻi cinder cone and venture into the dramatic South Maui lava fields, where Haleakalā’s volcanic history comes to life.

At La Perouse Bay, discover where ancient Hawaiian history meets a coastline shaped by lava. See the beginning of the historic King’s Highway, also known as the Hoapili Trail, and enjoy breathtaking views of Haleakalā and neighboring islands when conditions are clear.
