Paia is one of most idiosyncratic and eccentric towns in Maui. It's also very charming. Basically a T-shaped village at the intersection of Hana Highway and Baldwin Avenue, Paia sits right near Baldwin Beach on the North Shore. Its inhabitants can range from surfers, travelers, various youth, and free-thinking spirits. You must check it out! The businesses that line its streets vary as well, from eclectic fashion boutiques to tattoo parlors, to trendy restaurants. There's even a hotel and a natural foods store.
I tried to capture some of this town's magic yesterday, and I think the overcast skies and rain helped. Here's a selection of shots in chronological order from dusk to sundown.
