Maui, The Valley Isle, and Our HomeMaui, also known as the Valley Isle, is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Laced on all sides by soft, sandy beaches ranging in color from snowy white, to golden brown, to pure, lava black, Maui is surrounded by the emerald waters of the Pacific Ocean. The average temperature on Maui is in the 80's, which makes for excellent weather all year round. These pictures are of some of our favorite places on the island...places where beauty abounds and breezes smell like plumeria blossoms. Take a look around, and take away a little piece of paradise.
