Oh!! Finally, you are up for a vacation? First things first, congratulations. Does it sound a bit cheesy? It had to be considering what everyone went through last year. We all know 2020 was absolute crap. Fortunately, we emerged out of that mess. So, it is highly advisable to take a break and enjoy yourself with your friends and family.ย 

And what better way to do that than planning a getaway. Right? While international travel is a bit out of the picture, for now, you can still feel refreshed if you visit Maui!

But to further amplify the fun, hereโ€™s our guide vacationing in Maui. Letโ€™s begin!

The Best Side to Stay in Maui

While many people perceive the island as the smallest one, it is more than 700 square miles. It would take several hours to drive from one side to another. Remember, the island is still maintaining its wild nature. So, you must keep a list of things that you wish to do before deciding on the place to stay. For instance, you can think of staying in Kaanapali, where you will find a variety of high-end shopping places and restaurants. Youโ€™ll also get to do some adventure activities, such as cliff diving. 

Other than that, you can choose Lahaina, which is known for its suburban feel. Youโ€™ll enjoy the area thatโ€™s known for its exemplary surf shacks and fantastic nightlife. It is an excellent place to go if you want easy access to Lanai or Molokini. Similarly, you can choose to stay in Kihei for the sunny side of the island, Wailea for diving or snorkeling, Kahului if you want to do surfing or you are fond of city life. 

The Best Time to Visit Maui 

If you can, aim for months like mid-April to June or September to mid-December to visit the island. However, if you are interested in wildlife, like whale watching, plan sometime during the winter months.ย 

Packing Essentials To Visit Maui

You have to consider many things, such as beach time, adventure trips, and romantic getaways when packing essentials for your trip to Maui. If you plan your trip around September, November, January, or July, your bag should be full of essentials that complement warm days and cooler evenings. Make a list of maui things to do first, then accordingly decide on the travel prerequisites for a smooth vacation. 

Other than that, make sure your travel bag contains sunblock that protects reefs as well. Other than that, a first aid kit, GoPro to capture your adventures, mask, sanitizer, a supportive travel bag with UV resistant sunglasses, and of course some slip-on sandals!ย 

Make It an Unforgettable Experience

When visiting the island, make sure to opt for Front Street when visiting Lahaina. Hydrate yourself by drinking plenty of water and electrolytes. However, not every place will have plastic water bottles available, so make sure to bring your own bottle. Keep a time off of approximately 24 hours when scheduling scuba diving and hiking trips. 

Besides that, make sure to clean up after yourself if you are staying at a private property. And respect all the signs. Understand the unspoken code of conduct when driving towards Hana. 

There Is Something For Everyone in Maui!

Maui is a place that caters to the needs of every age group. You can go for water activities, such as scuba diving, whale watching, wildlife viewing, go for trails or hiking, or feel the adrenaline rush with cliff diving adventures. 

No matter what you want, the island will fit every criterion of yours. Just make sure to book your tickets in advance, especially if you are flexible with your schedule. Try going for a midweek flight to avoid overcrowding at airports. 

Again, if you want to rent a car when visiting this place, do that in advance as well. Find a reliable rental company that fits your budget and needs alike. So, did you note down these pointers? If not, itโ€™s time to do it now!

You donโ€™t want to be weighed down by an oversized, clunky backpack that boasts all the bells and whistles but delivers nothing more than unnecessary muscle strain. You want a backpack that is minimal on the outside, functional on the inside, and sustainable all around. Waxed canvas is always a top choice for me!

Iโ€™m obsessed with this backpack from @hellodayowls ๐Ÿ˜

It has that perfect boho minimalist look that I love, in the perfect color for fall. This has become my go-to handbag for autumn. 

Perfect for all our outdoor adventures, hiking in the mountains, exploring the woods with my kids, and everything motherhood throws at me! ๐Ÿฅพ ๐Ÿง—๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐ŸŒฒ

Luckily, there are holistic wellness products that can help make the motherhood journey easier!

Lost Empire Herbs stands out as a remarkable family venture led by three health-conscious brothers who share a profound dedication to a wholesome, active lifestyle. 

Their journey began with a modest kitchen table and the introduction of pine pollen, but it has since evolved into something truly remarkable, exceeding all expectations.๐Ÿ˜ฑ

What truly sets Lost Empire Herbs apart is their extensive collective knowledge, derived from years of hands-on experience, unwavering commitment, and a willingness to explore new horizons. Driven by a genuine desire to enhance lives, they made a resolute decision to make the benefits of these exceptional herbs accessible to a wider audience. 

Their primary focus revolves around offering hormonal support, a vital consideration given the prevalence of endocrine-disrupting compounds in today's world, although their scope extends beyond this singular realm. ๐ŸŒฑ 

I'm genuinely enthused about the prospect of trying out their products, eagerly anticipating the chance to personally experience the transformative effects of these wellness herbs. The brothers' evident passion and expertise have left me intrigued and eager to embark on a journey towards total wellness, guided by the offerings of Lost Empire Herbs.
