Hawaii Front Street Lahaina Maui. Last Video Driving Down June 7, 2023 Before Devastating Fires.

Lahaina Front Street, one of the most visited spots in Maui, has always held a special place in the hearts of our family. From our childhood visits in 1990 to our recent trip in June, Front Street has been a constant source of joy and memories.

During our last visit, we felt compelled to record a video capturing the essence of this vibrant street. Little did we know that this would become a poignant reminder of what once was.

Today, on August 9, 2023, devastating news of the billions of dollars in damage to Lahaina and its surrounding communities, particularly Front Street, has left us heartbroken.

Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone on the island as they face this unimaginable loss. Through sharing this video, we hope to bring a glimmer of happiness and pay tribute to the beauty and spirit of Lahaina Front Street.

God bless everyone in Maui. Mahalo for the memories.

Thank you for letting me see this one last time. I grew up here. My mother worked on front street. Went to school at King K 3 elementary. I broke into tears watching this, but Lahaina will always be in my memories of what it once was.

Devastating, no matter how you look at it. may Lahaina rise from the ashes like a phoenix and be better than ever WITH as much of its classic charm as possible.

My wife is From Oahu, and we have been to Maui together at least a dozen times. Lahaina was one of my favorite places in the world. It had so much character. If you carried any stress, just walking down the street melted it away. We just watched this together and it made us both cry. I will always miss what a special place it was. Thank you for sharing..

As an Australian we know how devastating fire can be, 173 people died in the Black Saturday fire in 2009 in Victoria, so very sad for you and we all share your loss and grief.
