Our favorite playgrounds

Are you looking for a playground for the kids? Apart from the beach, that is?

In Kihei there is a brand new playground/park just off the Piilani Hwy, called South Maui Community Park. To get there you turn right onto Lipoa (by Kihei Elementary and the Aquatic Center). Turn left at the first light (after Kihei Elementary) on Liloa Drive and follow the road past the Middle School. There is a nice playground, a number of fields, picnic area and public washrooms. It can get quite windy (kiting!!) but there is little shade to be had.

If you don't mind a little drive, go upcountry to Haiku and check out Kalakupua Playground at Fourth Marine Division Memorial Park! It is at Mile 2, Kokomo Road in Haiku. This playground is cool - it's a fortress with separate little and big kid areas.

Kalakupua Playground in Haiku... lots of fun for all the kids!
