3. **Ho'okipa Beach Park** (15m) - Hookipa Beach is considered the windsurfing capital of the world, you can enjoy watching wind surfers, kite boarders and surfers challenge the ocean waves and shoreline winds.

5. **Twin Falls Maui** (pass by, no stop) - Twin Falls is the first easily accessible string of waterfalls and pools on the Road to Hana.
6. **Haipua'ena Falls** (pass by, no stop) - is a small waterfall and pool along Maui's popular Road to Hana. Thanks to the unsigned trail and short hike over an often muddy path, the pool receives far less visitor traffic than the well-signed falls along the route
7. **Ke‘anae Point** (20m) - The Ke'anae Peninsula is a dramatic half-mile long massive finger of newer lava sticking out from the cliff line of the Hana Highway.
8. **Experience for yourself the deliciousness of Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread and o...** (15m) - Experience for yourself the deliciousness of Aunty Sandy’s Banana Bread and other roadside treats on your way to Hana. This unique Hawaiian experience even merited the attention of the famed Gordon Ramsey, which has helped even more people to discover this hidden gem.
9. **Ching's Pond** (pass by, no stop) - Very photogenic spot to get photographed doing something life threatening.
10. **The Keanae Overlook near Mile Marker 17 provides scenic views of Keanae's tar...** (pass by, no stop) - The Keanae Overlook near Mile Marker 17 provides scenic views of Keanae's taro patches and the ocean beyond. The turnoff from the Hana Highway to the Keanae Peninsula is located just beyond the Keanae Arboretum.
11. **Upper Waikani Falls** (pass by, no stop) - Located just beyond Mile Marker 19 on the mauka—or mountain side—of Hana Highway, Upper Waikani Falls is often referred to as Three Bears.
12. **Wailua Falls** (pass by, no stop) - The waterfall of all waterfalls. Absolutely stunning, and a popular photo op for Maui marketing brochures!
