My wife and I are big fans of Maui. We've been there 12 of the last 18 years. You can say that we are in love with our new found home. Oh yes, we did the road to Hana twice. By now we have done most of the tourist stuff, so we can just kick back and enjoy the aloha, and diving!!! Thank you for sharing your experience with everyone. Maybe one day we will run into each other and have a Mai tai. ALOHA!!!🤙🤙🤙
Wow that’s amazing! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻
What an amazing time you both must have had, such beautiful scenery’s, a bit to much hiking for me but everything else so amazing. Loved your little friend Matt you met along the way. Thank you for sharing! 🥰
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
We have stayed the day at Ke’anae Peninsula!!! I didn’t think anyone else would ever feel that way! Aloha to you!!! The beauty and magnificence of the RTH will stay with you forever.
Aloha! It certainly has stayed with us. We can’t wait to visit again. Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU for mentioning about the Wai'anapanapa State Park reservations. I wouldn't have known about it either, if it wasn't for your video. Thanks again! Saved my day
We’re glad we’re able to help!! Hope you enjoyed!
Love it!! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! It was a fun day!
Honestly, this has been the most realistic video I have seen so far on the classic Road to Hana. We are leaving in a little over a week with my parents and our kids. Just want to make sure we can all enjoy the adventure. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching! Hope you all have an amazing time. It truly is an experience that you need to see through your own eyes!
OMG, I can't wait...We will be there soon
Have a great time! It’s incredible!
Pray for Maui
🙏🏻
Very informative thank you very much!
Mahalo for watching! 🤙🏻
The Hotel Hana Maui (a Hyatt resort) is a must! Pop in to view this lovely property for lunch! BTW, there's also a black sand beach very close to where you were staying in Wailea further down by Makena Beach! Thank you for sharing your tour!
Dang! Missed it!
Yes!! It was fun. Do they still have the bumper stickers that say, “I survived the road to Hana” ?? We loved it.
I’m not sure if they have those, but we agree, it’s such a great drive!
Heading out September 25th 2021....2nd trip.....yay
Awesome! Have a good time! 🤙🏻
Thank you....favorite places.....
Captain Cook is also credited with the "discovery" of Australia.
Didn’t know that! Very interesting!
wonderful video....did all the stops including the lava cave were on the app? listed . also did u went back the same way you came or did u do the entire circle. thank you
Thank you! Yes, everywhere we stopped (with the exception of Red Sand Beach) was part of the Shaka tour. We went back the same way we came, which was nice to see certain stops more than once
What time did you start the trip and what time was it when you got to the Wailu Falls?
Don’t remember when we got to the falls, but we started the trip very early. About 6am
@ the 10 minute mark y'all entered a lava cave. At what mile marker is this located? Thanks in advance!
This lava tube was located at mile marker 23. It’s a very small opening, so it’s a “blink and you’ll miss it” type of thing. There are additional lava tubes at mile 31, but those are not free like this one is. Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻
fab video! when was this recorded?
Thank you for watching! This was from August 2021.
How can one not enjoy Red Sand Beach?? I always feel/get into my "Blue Lagoon" vibe when I'm there. LOL
It was incredible! Definitely a place we'll never forget. Thanks for watching!
You dont. Trail is on private property and it can be a dangerous hike.
This documentary will really help tourists plan and customize their trip as per the needs. You have captured nicely for almost 12 hours of journey into a 30 mins video. I need a quick info. If someone plans to go straight up to Hana from Kahului and plan to do sightseeing on the return journey, are all spots accessible easily in this opposite journey?
Thanks for watching! Yes, since it is only one road, you can easily go straight to the end and then turn around and hit the stops on the return trip.
How early did you start your day and how crowded was everything? Would you recommend taking 8&10 year old kids to the red sand beach?
We left around 6:30am or so. The only crowded spots we came across on the day were Twin Falls and Aunty Sandy's (but the line moved fast). Everything else was honestly not too bad at all. We do not recommend taking kids to Red Sand Beach given the dangerous hike it takes to get there. Definitely not for kids!
What was your camera setup you were using? I heard your say GoPro and it seemed like that was for the underwater portion. I am interested in your primary recording camera. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! Our primary set up is the Canon M50, Sigma 16mm f1.4 lens and the Deity D4 Duo mic 👍🏻
Thank you. You shot some good quality video clips.
Thanks, John! Appreciate that.
I went to Hana just last wednesday and to let everyone know here, Red Sand Beach at "12.56" in your video is a private property and the access road is blocked with many signs of NO Tresspassing. It is a resort property that has access to this beach and the dangerous hike down to the beach is actually illegal going by the constant reminders posted on the road. It also has no parking space on that street. Please tread at your own risk. I was disappointed to not find this information in your vlog before I went there.
Such an awesome journey! Too bad Braddah’s hut was closed. It was 10 years ago when we last did Road to Hana and we didn’t need reservations to Black Sand beach. My gf (now wife) had the same reaction when going down to Red sand beach. I enjoyed hiking down and swimming in Wailua Falls the most (still have the pictures there)
Wish we would have known beforehand! Our bellman told us about the reservations the night before (he was the one that gave us the directions to the Red Sand Beach). Next time!
What months did you go, and on a scale of 1-10 how busy would you say the areas and road was while going through it? Thanks!
We went in mid August and the roads weren’t bad at all! Had to pull over a couple of times to let people pass, but we left our hotel early to get a jump on it and nothing was super busy. Thanks for watching!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs what time did you leave your hotel to start
About 6am
I forgot to mention that if you intend on doing a lot of snorkeling you may want to invest in a snorkeling vest. You place two breaths into the vest and you are good to go. They also pack very good in your suitcase. There are manual fill and manual fill with an emergency inflator in case you feel you are getting into trouble. Take care and enjoy your honeymoon.
Good idea! Thank you!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs Make sure the ones you buy have a crotch strap, it will keep the vest in place and it won’t ride up your neck.
What happened to this island?! Wildfires from Hurricane Dora?
Yes, such a shame 😢
Now a year later do you still need a reservation for black sand beach
We haven’t been back since August 2021, so I’m not sure where they currently stand with reservations. I’m sure you can look it up on their site though!
"dried up Lava"😅
Do we need a gps or what maps to use?
You download the Shaka app, purchase the Road to Hana tour and it navigates for you!
Omg those apps used to be like a dollar or free ! &15!?
Not a cheap app, but it was well worth it!
What mile marker is the lava tube?
Thanks for watching! The lava tube we went in was at mile marker 23. There’s other lava tubes on the Road to Hana as well (off mile marker 31). Enjoy!
@@MattAndAlexVlogs thanks! We are heading to Maui next week
Have a great time!
Is it scary driving up?
Is there a lot of tight roads?
Yes, the whole drive consists of tight, windy roads. It’s not “scary”, but definitely much smaller roads than what you’re probably used
Red sand beach is located on private property and is very unsafe. Stay away
