Things to Do in North West Maui | Let Us Show You Napili & Kapalua

Published 2020-09-18
We just had the best staycation weekend in North West Maui. Let us show you all the things to do on this quiet part of Maui - the northwest Maui coast.

Celebrities aren’t the only ones who can enjoy this part of Maui. Escape the crowds around Ka’anapali and Wailea by staying and playing on this part of the island.

Erica, Henry, and I will show you all there is to do around this rugged and tropical side of Maui. From SUP in Napili Bay to snorkeling the Honolua Bay Marine Reserve to the infamous Nakalele Blowhole. Then cap off a day of excitement with live music and a sunset view at Merriman’s Oceanfront Grill.

I feel more relaxed just writing about our trip. We will be back, we always go back to Napili.

We had the pleasure of staying in a vacation rental from Aloha Stays. Check out the link below for their Napili Bay Villa, or one of their other properties. Luckily, Hawaii is opening soon so you can enjoy their condos.

    Me and my wife Honeymoon’d in Napili at the Mauian and it was immediately one of our favorite places. So much so that 2 years later we took our daughters and stayed at the Napili Ridge for a week. West Maui is just incredible. That was in 2015 and 2017 and we are planning another trip back to West Maui in 2023 but this time plan on staying in Kahana. We looked at other Islands and places to stay but nothing seems to quite compare to what you get on Maui(especially the west side) Thanks for this video, it took me back to a very special place where I have some of my fondest memories with my wife and kiddos.
