Maui is home to some of the most breathtaking waterfalls in the world, many of which are hidden deep in lush valleys or tucked into towering cliffs. While hiking and driving offer glimpses of these natural wonders, the best way to experience their full majesty is from the sky. A helicopter tour gives you a bird’s-eye view of Maui’s iconic waterfalls, making it an unforgettable part of your Hawaiian adventure.

Why Helicopter Tours Are the Best Way to See Maui’s Waterfalls

Maui’s waterfalls are scattered across the island, many located in remote or inaccessible areas. A helicopter tour allows you to see these awe-inspiring sights up close without hours of hiking or driving. Some of the highlights include:

Honokohau Falls: Nestled in the West Maui Mountains, this two-tiered waterfall is one of the tallest in Maui, cascading over 1,100 feet.
Wailua Falls: Found along the Hana Highway, this stunning waterfall is even more magical from above, where you can see its full drop and surrounding greenery.
Papalaua Falls: Located on the rugged Molokai coastline, this waterfall is best viewed during a tour that crosses the Pailolo Channel.

Pair Your Aerial Adventure with an Off-Road Thrill

To add even more excitement to your Maui getaway, pair your helicopter tour with a Lahaina Adventure Tour from Maui Off Road Adventures. This two-hour ATV experience lets you explore Maui’s rugged terrain up close, offering a different perspective of the island’s beauty.

Highlights of the Lahaina Adventure Tour:
- Thrilling off-road tracks through bamboo forests, mud, and jungle canopies
- Scenic views of the West Maui Mountains

With these two adventures, you’ll see Maui’s waterfalls from the air and its landscapes from the ground, creating a well-rounded and action-packed vacation.
