East Maui volcano (Haleakala), Hawai`i [ TEXT ONLY ] Hualalai Lo`ihi East Maui, or Haleakala-- A Potentially Hazardous Volcano View east across Haleakala Crater, with young cinder cones in foreground. When asked about Hawaiian volcanoes, most people imagine the Island of Hawai`i and its eruptions at Kilauea or Mauna Loa volcanoes. But East Maui volcano has witnessed at least ten eruptions in thepast 1,000 years, and numerous eruptions have occurred there in the past 10,000 years. Thus, East Maui's long eruptive history and recent activity indicate that the volcano will erupt in the future. Haleakala National Park is the most visited part of East Maui. The Hawaiian name Hale-a-ka-la (lit., house of the sun), is now nearly synonymous with the entire shield of East Maui volcano. Early Hawaiians, however, applied the name only to the summit area, the site where the demigod Maui snared the sun and forced it to slow its journey across the sky. The oldest lava flow exposed on East Maui is about 1.1 million years in age. It is part of a sequence of flows emplaced near the end of shield building on East Maui. The time estimated to build a volcano from ocean floor to the end of its shield-building stage is thought by some scientists to be about 0.6 million years. East Maui volcano probably began its growth about 2.0 million years ago. Volcanism of the past 30,000 years on East Maui has been focused along the southwest and east rift zones. These two volcanic axes together form one gently curving arc that passes from La Perouse Bay (southwest flank of East Maui) through Haleakala Crater to Hana on the east flank. The alignment continues east beneath the ocean as Haleakala Ridge, one of the longest rift zones along the Hawaiian Islands volcanic chain. The on-land segment of this lengthy volcanic line of vents is the zone of greatest hazard for future lava flows and cindery ash. | Eruptive history | Haleakala Crater mapping | Geologic data sets | East Maui Facts Map of the Island of Maui Location 20.718 N 156.254 W Elev.

Summit Crater A large topographic depression, Haleakala Crater, occupies the summit region of East Maui volcano. The crater is breached at its northwest and southeast corners by large valleys that drain to the north and south coasts, respectively. The crater originated by erosion, according to most published accounts and additionalrecent research.

Hawaiian Cruise, Hawaii Cruises, Hawaiian Island Cruise, Cruises to Hawaii Home > Destinations > North America > United States > Hawaii > Hawaii Cruise Hawaii Cruise The Hawaiian Island chain consists of eight major islands and over 120 minor reefs and islands, so a Hawaiian cruise is the best way to explore the channels and waterways that intersect the islands. There are four primary islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Kauai, and Maui are the most popular sites that tourists will be visiting on their Hawaii cruise. Oahu Island Region This region includes the area around Oahu Island. There are numerous bays, reefs, and whale watching areas in this region, as well as port visits to the massively popular Honolulu. The Big Island Region The Hawaii Island region is highly popular as a Hawaiian Island cruise destination, as there are numerous endangered species, the Volcanoes, and the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This destination has port stops so you can visit the small villages around the Island, as well as see the volcanoes more up close. Whale watching, and excursions more inaccessible regions, can be enjoyed in addition to these cruises to Hawaii. The Maui Island Region Hawaii Cruises to this region tend to have layovers of several days, so that you can enjoy the water sporting fun that this energetic island has to offer. Cruises to the Maui region will port in one of the major cities on Island for several days. When in port, you can choose to go diving with one of the many charters in the region. This activity takes time to prepare, however, so you may want to choose to forgo diving unless you are already an experienced diver and do not need any training. All three of the primary regions have excellent spots to enjoy Snuba and Scuba Diving. When planning a Hawaiian Cruise, you will want to make certain you arrive during a time where whale watching is possible. While dolphins are around most of the time, the whales migrate, so they are only seen in Hawaii during the winter months. There are many different types of Cruises to Hawaii, ranging over various lengths of time. They tend to range from one to three weeks, which allows you to see many areas of the islands and spend a notable amount of time in port. If you want to stay for a longer period of time, you will need to contact your Travel Agent and inquire about one-way trips on different cruises. When in port, you may choose to go sailing with a charter to places that your cruise does not go. As there are many reefs and other islands in the area, your Hawaiian cruise will not visit them all. Each of the three regions have many different Hawaiian golf courses that you can visit. When you have several days in port, this is a good way to see some of the most beautiful parts of the island while indulging in a fun game and hobby. When taking a Hawaiian Island cruise, your trip will not be complete without indulging in a Hawaiian Luau. All of the primary regions have Luaus, although the best ones are on Maui and Oahu Islands. 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 Waikiki Hawaii Volcano Park Nai Pali Coast Waimea Canyon Pearl Harbor Hana Highway 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 Hawaii Weather Weddings Wedding Photographer
