Tourists are being asked stay away from West Maui amid historic wildfires that have claimed at least 96 lives.
"Visitors in West Maui have largely heeded the call to leave the island, and hotels and other accommodations are needed for displaced residents and emergency workers," said Hawaii Gov. Josh Green in an emergency proclamation Sunday strongly discouraging nonessential travel to West Maul.
Previous proclamations expanded the essential travel zone to all of Maui and the Big Island of Hawaii, where fires have also been burning in the northwest. A state of emergency remains in effect for the entire state.
Hawaii's tourism arm is encouraging travelers with trips planned to impacted areas to reschedule their trips if possible.
