MAUI
Calling Code: +1
The second largest island in the state of Hawaii, Maui is renowned for its pleasant climate, rainforests and abundant,
gorgeous beaches. The island was formed by two volcanoes, Haleakala and Puu Kukui. These volcanoes, now extinct, crown two mountain
masses separated by a valleylike, seven-mile-wide isthmus, which has earned Maui the nickname "Valley Isle."
Haleakala, whose name means "House of the Sun," dominates eastern Maui, and at 10,023 feet above sea level is the world's largest
dormant volcano. Puu Kukui, 5,188 feet high, anchors the smaller, eastern portion of the island, where most tourist activity is
concentrated. Maui's main industries are tourism, ranching and the cultivation of pineapples and sugar.
