Golf in Paia

Paia is a small community on the north shore of Maui, the gateway to the Hana Highway and a world-renowned windsurfing and kiteboarding destination at Hookipa Beach. The town's bohemian character—organic food stores, surf shops, and an eclectic mix of longtime residents and visiting athletes—gives Paia an identity that reflects the alternative lifestyle community that has coexisted with the agricultural heritage of the north shore's sugar and pineapple fields. Maui Country Club Golf Course occupies a historic position in the Paia community, reflecting the private club traditions that the plantation-era professional class established long before tourism transformed the south and west shores of Maui.
