Private Helicopter Excursion of Maui Nui with Landing from Lana'i Activity - Hawaii Travel Guide

Overview

Explore the islands of Lāna‘i, Kaho‘olawe, Maui, and Moloka‘i from above on the only helicopter tour of “Greater Maui”. Over one million years ago, Maui Nui (“Greater Maui”) was a single island forty percent larger than present day Hawai‘i Island. Over time, natural forces drew Maui Nui lower into the Pacific, forming separate islands.Touch down at our exclusive Molokai Lookout and slow down to "Molokai time". The expanse of the Kalaupapa Peninsula nestles 600 feet below at the foot of the cliffs. This is an opportunity to grasp how the unique history of Kalaupapa is tied to the isolation of its landscape. Kalaupapa is a monument to the strength of the human spirit illustrated by these brave souls and by the compassion of the people who were compelled to help them. After crossing by the historical town of Kalaupapa, you will view northern and eastern Lāna‘i - including Kānepu‘u dryland forest preserve, Keahiakawelo (the “Garden of the Gods”), Polihua, and long, sandy beaches.
