Conselho para os viajantes

Rental car recommended.
Although it's only a short walk to Makawao Town (around five minutes), you will need a rental car to get to the beaches as well as the major grocery stores and restaurants.
Não perca
The Saturday Farmer's Market is a must!
Have a look on the "Food Scene" section for details. It's from 7am to 11am in Kula.
Como economizar
Do your major shop at Costco.
The local Costco down in Kahului offers great pricing on any items you may need in larger quantities or for longer stays.
O que levar
Consider packing some warm clothing for Haleakala.
It's colder up there they you think! Especially if it happens to be a windy or rainy day.
