Almost as good as being in Cascade mountains. Go south to Kihei and go to big grocery store on highway on W side in north part of Kihei. Prices are more or less same as Seattle overall. Some things more expensive, some thing cheaper. Lahaina is the Waikiki of Maui. Tourist hole. If bored, nude beach is down Makena Rd. like at Ahihi Bay or La Perouse bay. Don't remember which. Make sure go snorkeling too. Is great deal at dive shops for boat tour out to some island with lots of turtles. And get to have snorkel gear for like 3 days or week or something. Will just say is pretty close to life changing in awesomeness. Didn't even make it to turtle island but going snorkeling in Maui is one of top 5 life experiences. Over towards Hana is some amazing beaches and swimming holes. Found black sand beaches, white sand beaches, and red sand beaches in addition to boring tan beaches. Is area called like 7 pools or something past Hana that is some of best fresh water swimming ever. Cliff diving into pools so deep can't see bottom. Went down so far one time had no idea which way was up. Of course road to Hana is t3h suck. Half day trip with lots of 15mph. Think probably set speed record in Ford Taurus when made that trip.
