Cliff House (Kahakuloa Head)

West Maui · Maui

Okay, here's the real deal — there are actually TWO different "Cliff Houses" getting mixed up here, and both are incredible. The hiking spot at Kahakuloa Head gives you those epic 360-degree views over traditional taro patches and the wild northwest coast. But the reviews are talking about the OTHER Cliff House — a 1940s plantation manager's house turned exclusive event venue at Montage Kapalua Bay on Bay Drive in Lahaina, where you can cliff jump into deep, crystal-clear water from rocks up to 40 feet high. The area north of the venue has multiple jumping spots with ladders and ropes to help you climb out. Both spots respect traditional Hawaiian communities, so be mindful of private property.

💡 Insider Tip

Bring water shoes for the rocky cliff jumping area — there are jump spots from beginner-friendly to 40-foot drops. Early morning gives you the calmest, clearest water conditions.
