Relish in Maui’s enchanting beauty from the water, and soak the allure of a mysterious neighbor island on a FAMILY-ORIENTED SAILING TOUR to Lana‘i.

First, the rolls: The tradition began in 1973, when the Coon family arrived on Maui following a two-year… Continue »

Hawaiian legends describe LANA‘I as a burning-red island inhabited by bands of cannibalistic, howling demons. Today’s version bears no resemblance.
