Hawaiian islands map- 8 major islands

Maui is located in the center of the Hawaiian Island chain. It is the second largest island, 729 square miles.

Nicknamed the Valley Isle because of its formation between two volcanoes, dormant Haleakala Crater (elevation 10, 023 feet) and Kahalawai, or the West Maui Mountains, whose highest peak, Puu Kukui, is 5,788 feet. Maui county is made up of four islands, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, and Kahoolawe.

Maui is known for its many beaches that stretch along the west coast of the island from Kapalua to Makena. East Maui, along the Hana coast, is graced with waterfalls and wayside parks for swimming and picnicking. A national park, Haleakala is the world's largest dormant volcano whose scenic beauty ranges from lush pastures and verdant farmland to arid grasslands dotted with cactus and terraced by lava formations. The summit of Haleakala appears otherworldly with its sloping, swirling colorful lava and many cinder cones. Hiking is popular throughout the island. The diversity of Maui's scenic attractions, combined with a variety of unique activities have earned it top honors as the "Best Island in the World" according to the readers of Conde Nast Traveler magazine.
