On the west side of Maui you will find the resort communities of Lahaina, Kaanapali, Napili and Kapalua.
Lahaina is a place where history and culture come alive. In the past, Lahaina has been the residence of
Maui's highest chiefs, the first capital of the Kingdom of Hawai‘i, the site of the breaking of the kapu of ancient Hawai‘i and a
few years later, the first secondary school established west of the Rockies.

Ka'anapali features several award-winning oceanfront resort hotels and condominium resorts, a world class shopping village with over 60 shops and restaurants, an oceanfront beach walk that connects all of the condominiums, hotels and shopping village, two championship golf courses, tennis courts for day or night play, a Sugar-Cane Train and free trolley service within the resort?
Napili, gateway to Kapalua, is located just 9 miles north of Lahaina. Napili has a lot to offer. If you are looking for a great beach for snorkeling, scuba diving, or just basking in the sun, Napili Bay is for you. Napili is also popular with walking and jogging enthusiasts. This is the place to start a great walking experience into Kapalua. You can start near the lower road or the highway and walk the Napili-Kapalua loop. On your walk you will find beautiful luxury homes, plant life and flowers, large Norfolk pines, golf holes, etc... most of the loop even offers sidewalks.
Kapalua can be likened to a sanctuary of tropical beauty. A low land compared to the other resort towns in Maui like Wailuku, Kapalua continues to flourish with the sea's embrace and the warmth of the Hawaiian sun. Even if the whole of Kapalua measures only 5.23 miles, its beauty more than compensates for its size. Located at the western tip of Maui, Kapalua has the ocean as its boundary. Together with other resort towns like Kaanapali and Napili, Kapalua forms a strip of white beaches, rocky cliffs, and clear, tropical waters. But more than beaches, Kapalua is also a center for trade and tourism in Maui, with its multiple hotels and fruit plantations. For its size, Kapalua sure packs a lot of punch.
