8Haleakalā National Park, Hawaii
Perched on the island of Maui, Haleakalā National Park is home to one of the most incredible sunset experiences in the world. The summit of the dormant volcano Haleakalā stands at over 10,000 feet above sea level, offering an unmatched vantage point to watch the sun set above the clouds. As the sun sinks lower, the sky turns shades of red, orange, and pink, creating a stunning contrast against the otherworldly volcanic landscape below. The high altitude and expansive view give the impression that you’re on top of the world. While sunrise at Haleakalā is popular, the sunset is equally breathtaking and tends to be less crowded.
