One of the best ways to explore Maui is on a chopper tour with Blue Hawaiian Helicopters and the journey to book is the West Maui and Molokai adventure.

On this flight, you’ll fly over the ocean between the two islands and see whales breaching below (from Nov-Mar), before taking a ride over the waterfalls on Molokai and then the sea cliffs (the highest in the world), much of which has never been touched by humans.

A flight then through the valleys of the West Maui Mountains is spectacular, particularly when the clouds are rolling over the hills.

Blue Hawaiian also offer tours over the island’s dormant volcanoes and others that include a stop on a ranch.
