Pu'u 'Ula'ula Summit

A Maui tradition is watching the sun rise from this summit, which (at 10,023 feet) is the highest point on the island. Although it gets quite chilly at this elevation, you're sheltered in a glass-enclosed structure and can get a panoramic view of Maui and its neighboring islands. If you do decide to make the unforgettable journey, be aware that the sun rises before 7am and that you'll have to allow driving time before that. If you're not daunted by that prospect, bring warm clothes and be prepared for an awe-inspiring sight. It's one you won't soon forget.
