3 Ways to Make the Most of Your Thanksgiving on Maui
Enjoy a Day on the Water
One of the best things to do during your Thanksgiving vacation on Maui is to enjoy the outdoors, especially the water! The weather usually cools down a little, which makes a boat ride quite enjoyable. Rent a kayak or book a catamaran for the day and enjoy the salty breeze of the Pacific Ocean. Another reason to get out on the water is to spot some whales! Indeed, humpback whales return to Maui around mid-November each year, so remember to bring your binoculars!
Attend a Thanksgiving Luau
You cannot miss the chance to attend a Luau while on Maui, and what’s more fun than a Thanksgiving Luau? Indeed, many of the main Luaus offer turkey on the menu during the holiday as well as fun activities for the entire family. Te Au Moana is one of our favorites, as it features a stunning, colorful, Polynesian dancing show.
