Windsurfing Maui A-Z Windsurfing Maui A-Z Apr 16, 2004 / Community Maui By Frank "SIMS" Bingel Much has been said and written about Maui, but there remain many untold stories and emotions associated with this windsurfing mecca. Look down and the water is the deepest of blues. Look to your left and you see people taking lessons. Look far to your right and you see pros throwing loops off nothing. Everyone who has had the good luck to sail at Maui long enough (including myself) has a great story to tell, in fact, many great stories . . . breaking or losing half of their sailing equipment on the infamous and dreaded Hookipa "rocks" and the feeling of absolute terror in the impact zone with not a breath of wind in your sail.On a given day, Maui has a greater variety of sailing conditions for all levels of boardsailors than anywhere in the world. Maui's motto says it all :"MAUI NO KA OI". Translated it's :Maui is the best.This is truly a place designed for Windsurfing. Sailing Conditions: For those looking for high winds: visit Maui in the summer. From May to August, the northeast trade winds average 15 to 25 miles/hr, with many days in the 20 to 30 mile/hr range. The summer is also when the wave swell is at its smallest. For those who are looking for Maui's famous surf: visit it when there are both trades and waves - spring (March to May) and fall (September to November). From December to February, the northeasterlies are less consistent, but there are still great sailing days during this time - big wave days especially! During the winter, Kona storms will bring in 10-to 20-knot southwesterlies to the south shore. The sailing is side-onshore, port tack, with conditions similar to lake sailing. Another typical winter occurrence is 5-to 15-knot northerlies. These winds funnel between the West Maui Mountains and the Haleakala Crater creating great side-offshore, slalom sailing on the south shore. KANAHA BEACH PARK - Kanaha is a beautiful beach park with long, sandy beaches, grassy area for rigging, fresh water showers, shading trees, and picnic tables, all located in Kahului on the northshore. Sideshore northeast tradewinds blow consistently during June - August, with typically flat water sailing on the inside, and good bump and jump conditions on the outside. Between October and May you can find waves on the outside reefs, ranging from small wind swell to expert wave riding conditions. Most windsurf schools operate at Kanaha because of the consistent wind and warm water. All year round it is a perfect place for any level sailor. SPRECKELSVILLE / CAMP ONE - Up the coast from Kanaha there is a residential area called Spreckelsville which has many beautiful sandy beaches. The main area to sail is affectionately known as "Sprecks", which provides pristine blue-green water and white sandy beach. Parking is limited, so arrive early. There are no facilities or showers. The sailing level is typically intermediate to advanced, with the reef making for more chop and breaking waves. Camp One is a no frills beach at the end of the Kahului Airport runway. The place has no showers, no grass rigging areas, no toilet, and barely a trash can. It does have a beautiful beach and the only breaking waves for most of the summer. The place is frequented by German's, Australians, Italians, French and local windsurfers. It's a place where you want to be polite and follow the local traditions and laws to the letter. HOOKIPA - Hookipa is the windsurfing mecca of the world. Host to World Cup sailing and surfing contests, Hookipa rips. Jagged lava rock, exposed reefs, a gnarly shorebreak, light inside winds and powerful rip currents make this north shore difficult to launch off limits for most sailors. Experts launch from the Beach Park, just downwind from the pavillion. Expect crowds, with many sailors lulling around the outside and looking for a good wave to rip on the inside. When the water flattens in the summer months, slalom sailors launch here at Hookipa and blast downwind along the north shore. KIHEI - Kihei is the south shore's most popular windsurfing spot. When the tradewinds blow north/northeast the pavillion located at the intersection of Ohukai Street and South Kihei Road is a great place to sail. The reef can be shallow on the inside, especially near the Maui Sunset, so consult the locals before venturing out. Kihei is good for all level sailors and has a variety of accommodations nearby!

Hawaii Volcanoes Park Trail

Hawaii Volcano, Mauna Loa Volcano, Kilauea Volcano, Volcano House Hotel, Home > Destinations > North America > United States > Hawaii > Big Island > Kilauea Caldera - Hawaii Volcanoes Park Trail Kilauea Caldera - Hawaii Volcanoes Park Trail Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is the state's premier natural attraction, containing tow of the most active volcanoes in the world, Kilauea and Mauna Loa. The park extends for 377 miles from the 13,777-foot summit of Mauna Loa down to the Pacific, where Kilaluea, the youngest of the volcanic mountains, has since 1983 been pushing into the ocean from a vent, creating new land. Compared to more active volcanoes around the Pacific Rim and in other areas, Hawaii's volcanoes are fairly benign, so you can pass eruptions and lava flows in relative safety. No matter where you look, you'll see volcano views from a range of perspectives. Much of the park is preserved as wilderness, but it does provide 150 miles of trails, two visitor centers, and two scenic drives with a wealth of volcano views An 11-mile drive, called Crater Rim, passes by many rising steam vents. The Chain of Craters Road, a 46-mile round trip journey, goes by historic pit craters and heads down toward the ocean. Along the way you can see lava flowing like molasses. Three days has been suggested as a good time frame for exploring the park if you're not taking extensive hikes that eat up more time. Among the top hikes is the trail to Halemaumau Crater, emitting steam and sulfur. It's a moderate 3 1/2-mile hike and goes down 500 feet to the floor of Halemaumau Crater. You can also get a view and walk into a lava flow on a 10-minute walk from Crater Rim Drive. The Volcano House Hotel and Restaurant and the Kilauea Visitors Center and Park Headquarters are where you'll learn a great deal about the park and where you can get permits for overnight camping. They're all just inside the park's gate. There's no way to predict exactly what you'll see at the park. With luck, you'll view streaming rivers of red lava and you might see fountains of lava shooting hundreds of feet into the air. Or, the volcanoes could be completely still and silent. Bulletins sometimes keep you up-to-date on the volcano's activities. contact us | advertising with us | content licensing | privacy policy | terms of use | help (C) 2004 Destination360 All Rights Reserved Hawaii Map Select a region North America Central America South America Caribbean Hawaii Overview When to Go Events and Holidays Top 10 things to do Hawaiian History Interisland Flight Flights to Hawaii Hawaiian Islands Oahu Maui The Big Island Kauai Destinations Akaka Falls Anaehoomalu Bay Beaches Hawaii Volcano Park Kona Liliuokalani Gardens Hawaii Petroglyphs Puuhonua Rainbow Falls Hawaii Hotels Oahu Hotels Maui Hotels Big Island Hotels Kauai Hotels Travel Resources ATV Tours in Hawaii Hawaii Cruises Hawaiian Dinner Cruise Hawaiian Car Rental Hawaii Diving Golfing Helicopter Tour Luau Sailing Snorkeling Snuba Surfing Big Island Weather Weddings Wedding Photographer
