*TIP: There are designated public beach access parking spaces at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa (20), which is located at the north end of Ka'anapali Parkway and is the closest to Black Rock.
A beautiful, long, wide, undeveloped sandy beach with huge views and a large shore-break.
*TIP: In the afternoon, when the surf is up, a strong shore-break exists and can be dangerous for the inexperienced swimmers.
Malu'aka, also known as “Turtle Town” is south of Wailea and at the end of Makena Road - the entrance is off the main street so make sure not to drive past it! A long and wide beach with beautiful white sand and is gorgeous thanks to the abundant coral reef growing off shore. Sea turtles also frequent the beach - a huge draw for snorkelers and kayakers who hope to catch a glimpse of the beloved Hawaiian honu.
*TIP: In the morning, when conditions are calm, the visibility often provides excellent snorkeling. When it is windy in the afternoon, visibility drops dramatically and you might want to look elsewhere for better conditions.
Wailea Beach is wide, the sand perfect, and the ocean inviting (if you don’t mind a resort vibe and a crowd to go with it). When the ocean is calm, snorkeling is very good around the rocky outcroppings that define both ends of the beach. Boogie boarding and body surfing are also fun in the typically regularly formed, small waves and gentle slope.
*TIP: In the afternoon, when the surf is up, a strong shore-break exists and can be dangerous for the inexperienced swimmers. After you are finished with Wailea Beach, we recommend eating at Monkeypod Kitchen - so make sure to book your reservation in advance!
