Kahului
POP 26,337
Kahului is the commercial heart of Maui. It's home to the island's gateway airport and
cruise-ship harbor. Just about everything that enters Maui comes through this workaday
town thick with warehouses and shopping centers. Hardly a vacation scene, you say.
True, but if you dig a little deeper you'll find more to your liking. You have to go island-
style to have fun here: talk story with the locals at the Saturday swap meet, take in a con-
cert on the lawn of the cultural center or join the wave-riding action at Kanaha Beach.
