Available every Saturday. Some touristy stuff but many local artists are here. Much more reasonable prices than hotels of "shopping areas."
Authentic Hawaiian cuisine: get the Hawaiian Plate for a taste of everything. Love both the Spicy and Shoyu Poke, Kalua Pork, and Chicken Long Rice (glass noodles and chicken in broth)
Solid takeout spot not too far from the airport. Good lunch stop. Fried chicken sandwich will do you right. Kale salad was great too. Iffy on the pork belly
Chicken mole - spicy and really good. A little on the pricey side, but so is almost everything in Maui.
From Forrest: Last meal in Maui was also the best. Over 1lb of poke for $7.99 from a dumpy warehouse that shared a building with a chemical company
Calamari tempura, Seafood platter, Teriyaki steak, Pork teriyaki, Tonkatsu, Beef, pork or chicken sukiyaki, Beef, pork or chicken tofu
We tried the dry noodles, BBQ sticks and the manju and everything was delicious! You do have to wonder how anyone even knows about this place, it doesn't look like a restaurant from the street!
Try the Linguesa, Banana Stack, Loco Moco, & side of SPAM - Everything was delicious! (via @Foodspotting)
Banh hoi chao tom shrimp pop burritos, whole steamed opakapaka, chicken curry stew, mahi mahi in clay pot, saigon egg noodle soup, Vietnamese steak, Nhung Dam, spicy, crisped Dungeness crab.
Though (vegetarian) options are limited, the food is excellent and has home-cooked taste. Try their Masala Chai, it is exceptional and so much better than what you get at Starbucks. :)
Perfect day: Get fresh roasted coffee from Mill House, go ziplining, then finish with lunch or dinner. They have one of the best zipline courses on Maui. Great for the kids. Read more.
Seared ahi sandwich, chicken pot pie, great after snorkeling or surfing.

The Lava Flow has amazing pineapple-coconut sorbet "volcano" in the middle surrounded by light rum & fruit juices.
Next to the Sheraton, known for cliff diving and snorkeling (likely to see sea turtles). Careful of rip currents around the rock. At sunset, Sheraton holds a torch lighting ceremony and cliff dive.

Try the crab wontons. Bring your reciept back to your next visit and get cake free. Make sure to stop in the barefoot bar and have a lava flow with your feet in the sand!
Great location along Ka'anapali Beach and walking distance to Whalers and Black Rock.
Super cute in the lobby. Hyatt Regency also has black and white swans, ducks, flamingos...so much fun and gorgeous property!
Black Rock - great for cliff diving and snorkeling (can see turtles). Be careful of rip currents. Stay for Sheraton sunset torch lighting ceremony and cliff diver.
Local farmers market held M, W and F in Farmers Market parking lot has great produce, fresh guac and salsa...yummy!
Thursday and Friday 10pm-1am in Kapulua 50% off sushi and appetizers! And Karaoke
Awesome views. Take the shuttle from Ritz to Kapalua Bay Beach and then walk back along this trail.
Cheap/good food right next to Ritz! Don't pay for overpriced Ritz food. Great shopping and gifts/souvenirs here too.
To the right of the blowhole there is a heart shaped whole in the lava. Check it out!
Be sure to wear proper shoes if you actually want to hike down to the pools. It get real slippery. Also, watch the ocean. If it's heavy surf it gets dangerous. Other than that this place is an oasis!
Obama Burger is wonderful, Ono with wasabi butter. Fries are nicely seasoned
This fish house opened when no one went out to eat fish - and today, this is where they go. The daily menu tells you where, how, and who caught the fish, and the side dishes are perfect matches.
Great spot for fresh coffee, snacks, local products, and lunch at the deli. Read more.
Explore the entire life of a pineapple, from seed to delicious treat, eaten right in the field. Worth a trip, and the morning tour is great before driving up to Haleakala for sunset.
Maui's best kept secret: pick up a hot bento box here or make your own with their packaged leftovers. Turkey was flavorful & tender, meatloaf was exceptional, chow fun was delish!!
If you're planning to go upcountry, be sure to stop by this little farm. The baby goats are adorable and best of all, they've got cheese and chocolates.
Definitely take the walking tour, and after that, grab a cup of freshly-steeped lavender tea and some fresh lavender scones and just soak in the atmosphere. Life is good.
Pineapple wine. $10 tastings of 5 wines every day from 10a-5p. Guided tours of the historic estate, production area, and wine cellar depart the King’s Cottage lanai at 10:30a & 1:30p.
The famous sunrise. Make reservations online ($1.50 per car). Entrance fee is $25 per car.
Awesome hiking trails that are pretty challenging! There are rope ladders, plenty of cliffs for jumping, & two waterfalls. Swim to see the big waterfall at the end. It's worth it. Happy hiking!
This is the place to stop and cool off after all that hiking to the previous water falls. Hang around long enough and you might see some daring locals cliff jumping into the deepest part.
On a day trip to Hana you should definitively stop at this black sand beach. Pretty amazing sight and good place to take a break from the drive.
Nice tour, impressive new facility with more expansion planned (restaurant coming 2018). Lots of beers on tap, favorites were the Pineapple mana wheat and imperial coconut porter were tops
Multiple locations. Get banh mi (chicken lemongrass sandwich is the best, also pad-nam noodles with chicken, char siu saimin, fried rice with shrimp and spam, beef teriyaki, they should have pho too)
Amazingly fresh fish for under $12. The chef-owner personally delivers each dish and explains the preparation. More places to eat like a local: tandl.me/12ufz7c
Maui's best kept secret! Don't miss this spot for great seafood & poke! Takeout to beach or hotel or eat in. Very casual. Captain's Platter & half pound of Shoyu & Spicy Tuna pokes are great to share
This roadside outdoor stand serves authentic Mexican food in central Kihei. The Mulitas with Shredded Pork and Carne Asada Tacos are delicious. Homemade salsas. Agua de Pina. Open till 10:30p Fri-Sun.
My favorite place for Sushi and Sashimi. Make sure you try the Matsuhisa Style Miso Butterfish.
Take a few minutes to talk to Paul, the owner. He is awesome and has some good stories. Proper shave ice with all the extras, not a sno cone.
Fish burger, fish tacos. Coleslaw with homemade tartar sauce and home fried potatoes.
Make sure to get ice cream on the bottom and cream on top! Rice Mochi is very nice as well.
Corn Beef Hash & Eggs with Potatoes, Banana Mac Nut or Pineapple Coconut French Toast with Coconut Syrup, and Pork Fried Rice. The portions are huge and a great value for the price.
With $2 and $3 tacos, grab a mixture of the Shrimp, Mahi Mahi and Pork Tacos and be sure to add some hot sauce from their many options.
Order the carnitas tacos - the meat is tender and spiced with fresh pepper. Thanks to Yelp, we stumbled upon this tasty, affordable place to eat!
Try the juicy Kalua Pork Sandwich with Mac Salad, or go for gold with the Fried Spam Musubi or Loco Moco. The portions are notoriously huge., BYOB.
Possibly the best hotel on the island, especially if you're Globalist.
If you ask, your waiter will bring you fish food to feed the bonefish in the lagoon while you wait for your own.
There's a friendly giant sea turtle that hangs out in the rocks near center shore during high tide. Amazing clear water here.
Little Makena is small hidden gem Sunday Party not to be missed To reach Little Makena, on Makena facing the sea go to your right at the very end Then take the small winding path up between the rocks
Drive to the end of the road to see lava formations, Hawaiian ruins and tide pools. Bring your towel for the walk. Lots of sandy coves. Must see place in Maui!
Ask to go over the edge. The current will sweep you quickly so make sure a boat is there to pick you up on the other side. Recommend Seafire with Don. Small boat that also stops at turtle town.
