Hana Highway Waterfalls: Discover Maui’s Magical Road to Hana

If you're planning a trip to Maui, there’s one adventure that absolutely must be on your itinerary — the legendary Road to Hana. Also known as the Hana Highway, this coastal drive is more than just a road — it’s an unforgettable journey through lush rainforest, sea cliffs, and some of the most stunning waterfalls in Hawaii.

From hidden cascades to roaring falls that spill into swimming holes, the Hana Highway waterfalls are the crown jewels of this scenic route.

What Is the Hana Highway?

The Hana Highway is a 64-mile winding road stretching from Kahului to the tiny, peaceful town of Hana on Maui’s east coast. With over 600 curves and 50 narrow bridges, the road isn’t for the faint of heart — but it’s packed with jaw-dropping beauty at every turn.

One of the biggest highlights? The waterfalls.
