Sunrise from Haleakalā’s summit, clouds spilling like ocean foam. Hours later, swimming beneath a waterfall. Passing surfboard fences in Paia and Haiku. Stopping to watch sunflowers sway in Central Maui. Ending the day with haupia ice cream at Maui Tropical Plantation. #maui | Road to Hana

The crater at the summit wasn't shaped that way volcanically. instead it’s eroded rock was carved by wind and rain. But its scale is lunar: 7 miles across and nearly 3,000 feet deep. On clear days, you can see the Big Island from Haleakalā’s peak. Keep your eyes peeled for Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa in the distance. via Ali'i Resorts - Maui | Maui Hawaii
