Overview

The Kahekili Highway Tour showcases a raw, stunning stretch of northwest Maui that very few travelers ever experience. Maui's best kept secret, the knowledgeable guides will lead you past soaring sea cliffs, hidden beaches, picturesque Hawaiian villages, and a spectacular natural blowhole. This private west Maui tour features the Nakalele Blowhole, explores the dramatic lava rock formations at Dragon's Teeth, discovers the pristine beauty of Slaughterhouse Beach, and passes through Kahakuloa — a peaceful village that feels like the Hawai'i of long ago. This is Maui without the crowds, without the stress, and completely off-thebeaten-trail. Just your group, your guide, and Maui's Wild West coast.

What to expect

  1. Dragon's Teeth
    30m
    The tour opens at one of Maui's most
    otherworldly lava formations — Dragon's Teeth. This stretch of the Kapalua Coastal Trail leading to Makaluapuna Point has jagged, tooth-like spires rising from the coastline. Thousands of years ago, lava from Mauna Kahālāwai (now often called the West Maui Mountains) flowed toward the sea, where strong winds and powerful waves forced it upward as it cooled. The area is also a wahi pana — a sacred place — home to the ancient Hawaiian burial ground of Honokahua, a reminder of the deep connection Native Hawaiians have with this land. Walk the rocky shelf, scan the water for Honu (Green Hawaiian Sea Turtles), and take in sweeping views of the sister islands Lāna'i and Moloka'i across the ʻAuʻau Channel.
  2. Slaughterhouse Beach
    30m
    The name sounds ominous, but Slaughterhouse Beach is one of the most beautiful and secluded stretches of sand on Maui's northwest coast. A pristine crescent of sand and emerald water tucked beneath dramatic sea cliffs, Slaughterhouse Beach is one of West Maui's most stunning hidden gems. Protected from development and far
    from resort crowds, Mokuleia Bay is a favorite among bodysurfers and anyone who loves a beach that feels genuinely undiscovered.
  3. Nakalele Blowhole
    30m
    One of Maui's most powerful natural spectacles. At Nakalele Point, ocean swells funnel through a lava shelf and explode skyward in a geyser that can reach over 50
    feet. Your guide will bring you to the best vantage point on this dramatic stretch of rugged West Maui coastline. It's a setting that feels like the edge of the earth — raw
    lava, open sky, and the Pacific stretching endlessly in every direction.
  4. 30m
    Waiakeakua Gulch is a hidden cathedral of
    sea cliffs and crashing waves. Wild, remote,
    and unknown to most tourists, this aweinspiring
    valley will leave you speechless. The name is nearly unGoogleable, which means the guests are among the very few who ever find it.
  5. Waihee Beach Park
    30m
    The tour winds down at one of Maui's most underrated beaches where locals come to fish, swim, and watch the sunset. It's the perfect final stop: quiet, beautiful, and a world away from the crowded resorts.
