The tour opens at one of Maui's most otherworldly lava formations — Dragon's Teeth. This stretch of the Kapalua Coastal Trail leading to Makaluapuna Point has jagged, tooth-like spires rising from the coastline. Thousands of years ago, lava from Mauna Kahālāwai (now often called the West Maui Mountains) flowed toward the sea, where strong winds and powerful waves forced it upward as it cooled. The area is also a wahi pana — a sacred place — home to the ancient Hawaiian burial ground of Honokahua, a reminder of the deep connection Native Hawaiians have with this land. Walk the rocky shelf, scan the water for Honu (Green Hawaiian Sea Turtles), and take in sweeping views of the sister islands Lāna'i and Moloka'i across the ʻAuʻau Channel.
