Maui is the only island in Polynesia to be named after a god, and rightfully so. Visit east Maui's Haleakala Crater (the largest dormant volcano in the world at 10,023 feet tall), and you'll find a desolate landscape that is nonetheless home to the beautiful silversword � a member of the daisy family that has, due to its isolation, evolved into a plant like no other in the world. The lush rainforests and bogs of the nearby West Maui Mountains are home to a network of trails, cultural spots and stunning points of interest.
