If you have extra time, you can drive another 40 minutes beyond Hana to the beautiful Pools of OheвЂ™o, also called OheвЂ™o Gulch and Palikea Stream. (Photo of me on the black sand beach is below.) Shortly before you reach Hana, near Mile Marker 32, pull off to visit the black sand beach and other fascinating sights at Waianapanapa State Park. Stop near the end of that peninsula to pick up a couple of loaves of the worldвЂ™s best banana bread, at Aunty SandyвЂ™s Keanae Landing Fruit Stand. On the way to Hana, just past Mile Marker 16, turn left at the sign to Keanae, for close-up views of waves on lava rocks. The point of this trip is the sights on the road to Hana, rather than Hana itself. Hana itself is just a quaint small village, isolated from the rest of Maui by the mountain road. There is plenty of other beautiful scenery to see on Maui without the need for any of the above risks. There is nobody there to help you on that road and no place from which you can telephone for help.Д¤. The road on that southern route is poor and unpaved and you can get stuck there, especially if it rains.ДЈ. It violates the terms of your car rental contract, and the car rental company will not accept any responsibility to tow you out or to pay for any damage to your car.Дў. HereвЂ™s why to avoid that southern route back:ДЎ. You must drive back from Hana the same way you came, NOT by the unpaved desolate southern route. If you are prone to motion sickness, do not read (not even the map) in your car or tour van. ItвЂ™s 81 miles from Kaanapali the hard part (the Hana Road) has 617 curves and 56 one-lane bridges. Allow at least six hours to get to Hana (with stops to see scenery), and three hours to return (without stops). If you are staying on West Maui, I recommend the вЂњHana Box LunchвЂќ which you can get at CJвЂ™s Deli in the Fairway Shops just outside of Kaanapali (667-0968). If you drive yourself, leave your hotel by 8 A.M. Whether on your own or on a tour, you will see the gorgeous scenery of the rainforest, including many beautiful waterfalls of various shapes and sizes along the mountainsides. It is a long and difficult drive on a narrow winding mountain road. (The other is the crater at the top of Haleakala.) You can drive the road to Hana yourself, or take a tour in a van. The road to Hana is one of MauiвЂ™s two most famous sights.
