A banyan tree in downtown Lahaina inspired our company name. This impressive local tree stuck out as our icon, towering above Front Street, adjacent to the Lahaina harbor. In 1873, standing at just eight feet tall, this future famous banyan tree got imported from India and subsequently planted at the Lahaina courthouse square. Nowadays, the spectacular tree shades more than two-thirds of an acre, supported by 16 trunks with a height of over 60 feet. It’s the shade-filled heart of Lahaina, where celebrations take place. The tree represents a reminder to appreciate Maui’s long history and connect with the island during your visit to Lahaina.

Coral Reef and Fish Conservation Awareness |
Maui scuba divers get to experience the beautiful coral reefs and marine life found beneath the ocean’s surface. We consider ourselves very privileged to explore this delicate part of Maui and the Earth. So to help protect the fragile corals your scuba instructor likes to incorporate conservation awareness into every dive briefing. Ultimately this means an emphasis on safe buoyancy control techniques to best protect Maui’s coral reefs. Unfortunately, the Pacific Ocean is not as healthy as it used to be. Pollution, overfishing, and shark finning are just some of the issues threatening stability. Maui in particular continues facing coral reef degradation and enormous habitat losses. |
