Road to Hana Best StopsThe road to Hana is a long day of touring, but the ocean views, rugged lava beaches, and waterfalls make the trip a day to remember.
At first you probably won't even notice these Mile Markers, but once you learn to look for them, they will become indispensible for many of your Maui trips.
Road to Hana MapThe road to Hana stops on this and other pages can also be located on my road to Hana map page.Keanae ParkKeanae Park (between the 16 and 17 mile markers) offers a peaceful stop with a ruggedly beautiful lava rock beach, banana bread stand, and restrooms. We spent almost an hour here exploring the area.
Nahiku Cove
Nahiku Cove at mile marker 25 provides a cool green break at an isolated cove that is close to a rugged black lava rock beach. This area is best known as home to famous people such as the late Beatle George Harrison, but all we saw were some locals. The high rainfall encourages a lot of greenery, and we felt like we were going through a jungle on the three mile drive to the cove.
Three Bears FallsYou will see one breathtaking waterfall after another on the Hana highway.
Note: Like all the waterfalls on the Hana highway, water volume varies during the year and during the time of day. There may be no falls if water volume is low; or one fall if the water volume is so high that one giant waterfall is created).
Black Sand Beach
Wai'anapanapa State Park (just past the 32 mile marker) has a black sand beach, a freshwater spring fed pool in a lava cave for swimming, and restrooms.

Use the green Mile Marker signs on the side of the road to locate the best stops.
Waikani Falls (between 19 and 20 mile markers), is also called Three Bears Falls (Papa, Mama, and Baby falls - like the bears!) because the three falls are different sizes.
