12 Dramatic Waves Pounding Shore along Hāna Highway, Maui, Hawaii

Most resorts on Maui are located on the western or leeward side of the island because it is sunnier, warmer and drier. But if you want to experience dramatic waves, your best bet is the northeast coast. The trade winds usually take direct aim at this windward side, creating thundering surfs that are pure joy to experienced boarders.
