About Maui:
Maui is an island in the Central Pacific, part of the Hawaiian
archipelago. Sprawling Haleakala National Park encompasses the island’s
highest peak, volcanic Haleakala, as well as the pools and waterfalls of
Ohe’o Gulch, accessed via scenic, winding Hana Highway. The island's 30
miles of beaches include golden-crescent Kapalua, sheltered from strong
currents by lava-rock promontories.

Waiʻanapanapa State Park, located at the end of Waiʻanapanapa Road off Hana Highway, features some of the most unique sights you’ll ever see. As home to one Maui’s volcanic-sand beaches, you’ll have the chance to experience a black sand beach alongside the ocean.In stark contrast, the tide pools here at Waiʻanapanapa State Park turn red several times of a year. Scientists indicate that it’s because of the arrival of small shrimp, however folklore says its the blood of Popoaleae, a princess that was supposedly murdered in a nearby cave by her husband, Chief Kaakea.
The park also has seabird colonies, lava tubes, blowholes, freshwater caves, and a natural stone arch. Source
