Brief History: The island is named after Maui, a mischievous mythological figure of ancient Hawaii whose antics are recorded in historic chants. One legend says that Maui dragged the Hawaiian islands out of the ocean with a giant fishhook.

Maui has a colorful past of settlers. When Kamehameha I united all the Islands, he made Lahaina his capital in 1802. Missionaries and whaling men arrived soon afterwards, and the island was divided by these opposing forces. The end of the whaling era came in 1860, due to the Civil War and the rise of the petroleum industry. Much of Maui's land was planted in sugar cane, and labor was imported from Asia to work the land. The island evolved into a peaceful agricultural area of great charm and rustic beauty. Today, visitors have discovered Maui's many beautiful charms, creating a thriving tourist industry.
