The rolling cliffs of Ka'anapali form a striking backdrop to the stunning beaches found on this northern stretch of Maui. When Kings and Queens ruled Hawaii, this region was a royal escape, and it remains a popular vacation spot with many things to do during your stay.

Pu’u Keka’a, or Black Rock in English, is the best-known attraction. It is said that this is the place where spirits depart to join their ancestors, but for the living, it is also a popular place to go cliff diving and photographing. Torches are lit here nightly in a popular ceremony, and Black Rock Beach is fun for snorkeling and diving, although you’ll want to be careful of the currents for swimming.

A Maui timeshare shouldn't be without a trip to Whalers Village in nearby Lahaina. This open-air mall has several different restaurants and shops which are definitely worth a visit, and it is close to Ka'anapali beach. You may find other outdoor activities in the Ka'anapali area at one of the local golf courses, high above the ground on a Zipline tour, and hiking through Kahekili Beach Park.

On the water, there is no shortage of activities to choose from. Winter visitors will want to take a whale-watching cruise to see the magnificent humpback whales traveling along their annual migration routes.

Year-round there are fishing charters, sunset sailboat cruises, and kayaks to rent to explore ancient lagoons. Plus, you can rent scuba or snorkeling gear onsite to explore the natural wonders found beneath the surface including schools of fish and underwater plants.

Best Times to Visit a Maui Timeshare

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Maui is a popular destination almost year-round. No matter when you visit, you are likely to find warm temperatures and a clear blue ocean, although the rainy season may put an occasional dampener on your outdoor plans. Since Kaanapali is on the leeward side of the mountains, rainfall is less of an issue here than in other parts of the island. And in winter, you will be greeted by Hawaii's welcoming beaches, especially if you are coming from a colder winter climate.

The most popular season to vacation at a Westin timeshare here is either in the late summer from July through August, or in the winter months, especially December through March. At this time, you can expect to find many other families taking advantage of the beautiful resort and making the most of their Hawaiian vacation, as well as spending time on the beaches and visiting local attractions.

The off-season at Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas North tends to follow the school year as well. It quiets down slightly during the late spring and early fall.

If you are looking for a less crowded time of year, and can be flexible in your travel plans, you may want to consider vacationing there from April to May, or from September to early November. The weather during these months is perfect for spending time outdoors, and it may be easier to find reservations and get perfect photographs at some of Maui's top attractions.
