5 things to know before catching the sunrise at Haleakalā National Park in Maui!! 🌞💛Seeing the sunrise over the clouds (& at the top of a volcano!!) was one of the most surreal experience I’ve ever had. 📌Save this video if you plan to go yourself because trust me, a little prep goes a long way… 1. The drive 🚘 There are some seriously windy and dark roads leading up to the volcano. In many cases, you can’t see past the bend of the road and have to use your high beams for visibility. If you’re not comfortable driving in these conditions, make sure you’re traveling with someone else who is! 2. Arrival time ⏱️ With a ticket purchase, you can enter the national park for sunrise viewing as early as 3AM. I recommended getting there at least 90 minutes before the sun is set to rise. Photos didn’t do it justice, but the stars are STUNNINGLY bright and vivid when the sky is pitch black outside. Absolutely unreal. It’s worth the early alarm. 3. Layers!!!🥶 Dress warm. Can’t stress this enough. It might be Hawaii, but at 10,000 feet up, it was 36 degrees and v windy. Gloves, scarf, and ear protection are all needed as is at least three layers of clothing on the rest of your body. 😅 4. Warm Drinks & Snacks ☕️ Pack a thermos with something hot—our ginger tea was a lifesaver considering my boyfriend and I were severely underdressed🥲 And since there’s nowhere to buy food or drinks in the area, bring your own snacks if you get hungry in the morning. 5. Reservations 🎟️ This is crucial!! The sunrise viewing on the volcano is very popular. You’ll need a ticket for vehicle parking during sunrise as well as a ticket to enter the national park. Reservations for the vehicle parking open 60 days in advance‼️ They release half the tickets then and the rest of the tickets 48 hours before the date. The tickets sold out in 2 minutes when I went to purchase ours 48 hours in advance, so set a reminder on your calendar to not miss out on this mandatory ticket! . #HaleakalaSunrise #Haleakala #sunrise #thingsiwishiknew #thingstodoinmaui #Maui #hawaii #visithawaii #visitmaui #traveltips #travelbucketlist #traveltiktok

Haleakalā Sunrise - Things I wish I knew ☀️ #haleakala #thingsiwishiknew #maui #hawaii #sunrise Follow these tips to make your Haleakalā experience hassel free: ‣ Make a reservation to enter Haleakalā National park between 3am-7am prior to your trip on recreation.gov (spots are very limited and the only way to get in is with a reservation) ‣ Bring very warm clothes & shoes - temperatures before sunrise are below freezing! ‣ Bring a headlamp to see better as you make your way to the viewpoint ‣ There is no bathroom in the summit area parking lot so make sure you use the restroom by the visitor center (about 3/4 miles below the summit) ‣ Gas up your car and bring snacks - neither is available inside the park ‣ Be prepared to enter the park well before sunrise (I suggest arrving by 4am to get a spot at the top) ‣ Stake a claim at the lookout point about an hour before sunrise (or as long as you can bear the cold) #sunset #hawaiitok #beautifulplaces #bucketlisttravel #haleakalanationalpark #volcano #travelguide #traveltips #howto #thingstodo

Watching the Maui sunrise at Haleakala National Park is a very popular activity for tourist. Making a reservation for it was also VERY hard (harder than registering for college classes LOL so stressful😅). I didn't know you'd have to wake up 2-3am to drive to the site so you can find a good parking and viewing spot when you get there. It's cold as balls up there, ask your hotel for an extra blanket you can take with you but holy cow I had the best stargazing experience of my life before the sun came up! I waited what felt like an eternity for the sun to come up, just before the sun reached the horizon all the sudden I felt like my brain was going to explode and I was going to pass out or throw up. I didn't know until later it was altitude sickness since you are 10,000 feet above sea level. I honestly didn't think this type of thing would affect me until it did, no wonder some people bring their own oxygen when they hike to high places. This experience was definitely one to remember, I'd still recommend it to people but for different reasons...the memorizing stargazing experience! I felt like I saw the galaxy that night...🌌 ⭐️My Tips: 1)wear layers/ dress warmly 2)ask hotel for blanket or bring your own 3)bring water and a snack if you think you will get hungry 4) oxygen if you have some 5) if you want to come here I think you have to book a month in advance, try to be flexible with your schedule because it's a lottery system you may not secure a slot on your first try and then you have to try again for another day. #maui #haleakalasunrise #haleakalanationalpark #sunrise
