Though in name may seem like classic Hawaiian kitsch, this 60-acre working plantation is a great way to escape the noise of busy western Maui. Admission to the grounds is free, but tram rides are available to those who want the complete tour of the fields yielding pineapple, coffee, sugar cane, macadamia nuts, among other crops for which the Hawaiian Islands have come to be known. (Don't forget to try the free samples!) Hidden in the mountains in rural Waikapu, the scenery alone is worth the visit. For a bird's-eye view, take the zip line across the property. If you're in the market for tropical flora, be sure to visit the nursery. The market and gift shop are great spots for those looking for souvenirs (especially edible ones). If you are looking for something more substantial meal-wise, the restaurant on the grounds may be the right option for you.
