Maui Vacation: A Golfer's Paradise by DB

In the course of a Maui vacation, one comes to see that Maui, Hawaii is referred to as "Paradise" for many different reasons.  One wonderful reason is that it is a Golfer's Paradise.  Although it is only 48 miles long & 26 miles across at its widest point, Maui sports over fifteen world-class courses.  The weather is co-operative year- round with plenty of sunshine for play & moisture to keep the greens verdant.  Avid golfing veterans & eager novices can experience the thrill of playing on courses designed by such golf legends as Jack Nicklaus & Arnold Palmer.  Maui's many courses provide not only a wide variety of challenges & features to suit each golfer's abilities & preferences, but are breathtakingly beautiful as well, with panoramic views of the ocean, tropical landscapes & even neighboring islands.

Each of Maui's courses has it's  own personality.  To name a few, there's the Kaanapali Resort South Course with its emphasis on accuracy rather than distance & the nearby surpassingly scenic Kaanapali Tournament North Course.  Just south of Kaanapali is beautiful Kapalua featuring the long, rolling Bay Course for those who want to go the distance; the Village Course offering a links-style format; & the large-scale, distinctive Plantation Course.  (The world-famous PGA Tour tees off each year in January at the Plantation Course with the prestigious Mercedes Championship.)  One can also take the Lahaina-Lana'i Ferry (which runs five times daily starting at 6:45 a.m. from Lahaina Bay near Kaanapali) over to the island of Lana'i & try out two magnificent courses:  

The Experience at Koele & The Challenge at Manele.  The Experience is a short, but picturesque course that uniquely incorporates the surrounding natural tropical features.  

The Challenge abuts neighboring sea cliffs.  Spontaneouly reserving a tee time at any of Maui's magnificent courses is seldom a problem.  However, if play on a specific course is desired, it is wise to reserve ahead of time to avoid conflicts with course aeration & tournament dates.  Most course pro shops open at 6:00 a.m. & offer a wide range of high- quality gear & equipment to outfit the golfing enthusiast for the green.  They also offer a variety of lesson & lesson/play packages for every skill & age level. Using the latest teaching techniques, experienced professionals can help beginning youngsters master basic skills & etiquette, as well as assist seasoned pros in polishing up their game.  In the gracious spirit of aloha, course personnel are eager to do all they can to make each guest's golfing experience--& entire Maui vacation--a memorable one.  So, don't be shy, relax & enjoy.  

Remember, life is a lot more laid back here.  This is Maui, Hawaii:  Golfer's Paradise.
