If you plan on traveling to Kapalua or Honua Kai, Hawaii this
year, you’re probably preparing for a trip full of exciting activities,
beautiful beaches, and luscious hiking trails. Or, maybe you’re coming to
Kapalua to play a few rounds of golf along the coastline. Whatever your reasons
may be for visiting Hawaii, there is something for everyone to enjoy while
visiting. While Kapalua and Honua Kai are home to luxurious golf courses and
plenty of sandy beaches, they also offer a wide variety of exciting culinary
dining experiences.
When going on vacation, cuisine choices are often not decided
on until arriving at your destination. What many travelers don’t realize is

on while visiting Kapalua or Honua Kai. Below, we’ll talk more about some of
