Known as the 'Valley Isle' for the lush vales etched between its towering volcanoes, the island of Maui is unlike any other. Verdant jungles sprawl across the landscape and meet the sparkling sea edged by sandy beaches. Flowers bloom in riotous color and their fragrance lingers well into the night, when stars litter the sky like so many fragments of sea glass. Here on the island of Maui, relaxation is a way of life - not simply a goal or idea. Visitors to the second largest Hawaiian island can indulge in walks along the beach, delicious seafood, and the pampering of a lifetime at one of the island's many spas. The more adventurous can explore the numerous hiking trails that wind through the jungle, clamber past lava flows, soar through the treetops on a zipline, barrel through waves on a surfboard, or dive to the depths of the crystalline ocean where awaits a forest of corals. There are also museums, fine dining, golf courses and some stellar beachfront resorts. Maui is a paradisiacal island that never ceases to astound.

Ocean Vodka Organic Farm and Distillery is an eco-friendly distillery that produces premium quality vodka. The sugarcane comes from its onsite farm which blends with mineral water from the deep sea to create this popular brand. It is touted to be the only vodka that is made from organic sugarcane. The drink is gluten-free and as close to nature as possible. Tour the facility and relax in the martini garden where you can sip a few strong cocktails amidst strawberries, pineapple and local flora.

Located near the 2500-foot level on the slopes of Haleakala, this neighborhood park and community center is one of the more peaceful on the island. It is an easy spot to find on the upslope side along the Kula Highway. The park offers plenty of shade, a picnic pavilion, tables and a shaded playground. A softball backstop and a community kitchenette are also on-site. The park is used regularly by community groups, sports teams and area residents. There are two small parking lots and restrooms. Open during daylight hours only, this park has a serene, upcountry atmosphere in a quiet setting that offers respite from the tropical heat. It's a fun spot where families can play and picnic. -Lottie Tagupa
