Horrible attack.

I am going in Sept, cannot wait! Never been to HI, we waffled between Oahu, Kauai and Maui. We decided on Maui despite some of the island being burned, I know there is a ton to see. Still looking at condos around the Wailea, Makena area. We can only stay 6 days, wish it was longer!

Amazing!! I just got back on Saturday ;) It is an amazing place, I hope my guide gave you some good things to do! I have an adventure/tour guide coming out later this month, would love it if you checked that out!

Maui Gold Pineapple farm tour. Old Lahaina Luau -- just reopened. That's an absolute must. Trilogy snorkel tour to the crater reef. Spear fishing excursion with Lopaka Adventure.

@JacksonMeyer

ayyyyy all good reccomendations, Luau I'll check out next month, the pineapple tour is so expensive for what you get. Molikini crater?

Nicely done. My favorite food truck in Maui is Suns Out Buns Out in Kihei - they do amazing Bao Buns.

Awesome video! Definitely adding some of these places to my list of things to do when I visit

Hello man im a lahaina survivor Thank you for Making these people aware of our tragedy Sixty percent of us had to leave maui in order to find new homes But I do guarantee you lahaina was every bit as beautiful as you think it is Was it perfect? no but it was pretty darn close If you want to ask me any questions about the fire Or what happened. You got a source right here But thank you giving my home some respect

Nathaniel, my wife and I are planning on coming out in October. Our hearts absolutely broke when we saw the fires on the news and can’t even imagine the horrendous nightmare that must’ve been to live through. What are some ways for us to support while we’re there? Thanks and we pray for all of you.

@@Drop_Shot_Scott Thank you very much Scott You'll probably find the most survivors at hotels But you also find some camps on beaches And some families are now living with one another When an Apartment usually has two people now has five. Now there are some people who want to stay on the island and defend their home but there also others who want to move to another location Since the cost of living there has increased ten fold An apartments rent is three grand now. But here are some things you could help with 1: Stay as far away from lahaina and please don't take pictures of it. 2: If you do meet a family or a person that was a victim give them some help like food or more importantly money IF YOU CAN tho I promise man every cent counts That money can be used for food, health or to move to a safer location 30 bucks to you is one more step of recovery to them Like I said some people trying to get off the island and to more affordable locations. 3: support local business It might be more costly but if those local businesses go under that's more people on the streets 4: Be careful of some locals Now there are some that are absolutely awesome But there are others that are not very fond of tourists So be careful 5: If you meet another local and you have no money to give them.... Give them hope say that things are going to get better Because I wouldn't be safe today without hope. Hope gives you purpose makes you believe Because when the fire started me and my family ended up sleeping in the car with two cats and it smelled of cat urine We ended up sleeping in parking lots for a week With no gas And when I told my mom I had no hope and you know what she told me "Keep on hoping big man we'll get through this" And she is right We did get through it So if you can't give them any money or food that's understandable but at least give them some hope I hope that's enough to help you

We did some of these things in 2017 too. We had a hotel in Kaanapali, we did the Road to Hana (picked up fresh coconuts on the way there) and went up the Pipiwai trail, past the Banyon tree and through the atmospheric bamboo forest (which is breathtaking) to the Waimoku waterfall. Stopped twice on the road at the blowhole and at the Keanae lookout point. We were also on Haleakala and visited the impressive crater, unfortunately not at sunrise. We saw too late that you had to make a reservation there, but unfortunately it was fully booked. Were up there late morning. It was still an incredible sight. More or less at the foot of the mountain we visited the Ocean Vokda Farm. We visited Lahaina when it still existed. So sad that the beautiful place just disappeared, it was one of the coolest days ever. Went there in the great Coolcat Cafe and enjoyed delicious burgers and shakes. We then drove from there to Lanai for one day and visited the Cat Sanctuary. We were then also Iao Needle and a few more places. Maui has so much to offer that 2 weeks were unfortunately far too little. Thanks for upoad and for great memories🤙

Oh man, just reading your comment made me relive some of these things, Thanks! And I'm glad we had a lot of shared experiences! I'm heading back in a few weeks and doing a top 10 Adventures/charters/tours! I am so excited, there are a few that are absolutely so cool and cant wait to share the adventures. And maaaaan, Lahaina is so sad, I hope it's a unifying thing for the islands to come together and support the island, it's terrible to think about what that must have been like. So many people perished, so quickly. Terrible. But thankful we got to experience Lahaina in it's former glory.

Maui. Maui is great, Oahu is also, but Maui is special. It's a great jumping off point into Hawaii. Kauai is even more wild, and then big island is the most wild/rugged with not as much tourism. oahu is the main island, honolulu is huge and overwhelming and takes a while to find your own space.

Conspiracy theories have no place here, it is a tragedy what happened and Maui is recovering. The origin of the fire was captured on a ring camera... but in your head, suppose the gale-force winds were caused by giant invisible fans that the democrat deep space babies and Government installed, and all the thatched palm buildings were all part of the FBI's plan to destroy lahaina. Consiracy theories aren't helpful here. And we aren't talking about it becuase voter suppression and blah blah trump blah. We aren't talking about it just like we aren't talking about the 1200 English Monarch... time diminishes relevancy, we talk about it exactly adequately, as it happened last year and isn't news anymore. I'll be deleting your comment in 24 hours.
