Front Street Lahaina

The Old Whaler's Drag

Description

Lahaina has an interesting history. In the 1800s, it was fought over by whalers and missionaries, who were constantly battling over the lax morals of the whaling outposts and raucous taverns that were scattered along the port. Today, Front Street is the main thoroughfare for Lahaina's foot traffic, and it gives visitors a taste of urban flavor on an otherwise isolated island. While it is a bit overrun with tourist shops nowadays, Front Street is still well worth a spin, especially for the myriad of restaurants and bars available to hit-up after the sunset.
