Whether you’ve never been to Maui or have visited numerous times, it never hurts to have a plan. As much as we can appreciate the laissez-faire approach to vacationing, many seasoned travelers will say there are clear advantages to creating a fluid itinerary, at the very least. Now, it’s understandable that many people come to Hawaii to avoid making plans, schedules, and agendas, but the last thing you want is the feeling of regret when you realize you missed out on some fun activities. As such, you’ll want to become familiar with the unique opportunities available at your choice getaway destination. That’s why we at Epic Realty LLC have put together a quick guide to things to do in Lahaina, one of Maui’s most beautiful communities.

Lahaina, Maui Activities | Beaches, Eateries, and More

Whether you’re a nature lover, history buff, foodie, or fashionista, there are plenty of things to do in Lahaina. Even if you don’t describe yourself as anything other than someone seeking an immersive and unforgettable experience, we’re confident you’ll find what you’re looking for no matter how you spend your time. In addition to the sheer beauty found at every turn, our beloved city is home to an abundance of unique activities and cultural elements, and we would love to share them with you.

Visit Lahaina’s Best Nearby Beaches

A remarkable aspect of Lahaina is there seems to be everything there is to love about Maui close by, and the beaches are no exception! A few of the more prominent coastal recreation areas are  Kaanapali Beach, Napili Bay, , and Honolua Bay. And although they are technically outside of Lahaina, you’ll find the short commute is well worth the trip depending on where you’re on the island. 

Old Lahaina Luau

Conveniently located just off the Honoapiilani Highway, Old Lahaina Luau is an excellent place to immerse yourself in Hawaiian culture. Starting with a fresh flower lei greeting, you’ll enjoy tropical refreshments, an authentic five-course dinner, and an award-winning hula demonstration rife with musical and artistic jubilation. Be sure to check out their current menu before making a reservation.

Kapalua Coastal Trail

The Kapalua Coastal Trail is a one-way corridor that stretches along the coast from Kapalua Bay to D.T. Fleming Beach Park. To say the scenery is breathtaking feels like an understatement, but it’s genuinely the best way to describe it. Consisting of lush tropical flora, black lava geology, and white sand beaches, the Kapalua Coastal Trail is a hike you won’t soon forget.

Banyan Court Park

Banyan Court Park is a Lahaina staple you shouldn’t ignore. With humble beginnings as a tiny seedling, the local mainstay was a gift from missionaries in India. Since being planted in 1873, this living relic has grown to be almost 60 feet tall and is the biggest banyan tree in Hawaii. 

Lahaina Front Street

Unsurprisingly, many of the things to do in Lahaina reside on one of its busiest pedestrian thoroughfares. Lahaina’s Front Street is where you’ll find many restaurants, taverns, gift shops, apparel, craft stores, and jewelry dealers. And because of Lahaina’s status on the National Register of Historic places, you’ll find several historical sites, many of which retain their original architecture. A Lahaina Historic Walking Tour is a must for anyone interested in the city’s cultural legacy.
