Makena, HI

This stretch of powdery sand is part of an upscale resort community and is an ideal place to sunbathe, snorkel, and dive with Hawaiian green turtles and manta rays.

Maui locals and visitors love the multi-part beach that stretches along much of the shoreline of Kihei. Come to snorkel, splash in the water or enjoy gorgeous sunsets.

Three distinct, undeveloped beaches and a dormant volcano crater form this scenic southern region of Maui.

This is part of Maui’s so-called “Turtle Town,” a prime spot for sighting the inquisitive Hawaiian green turtles that are very common here.

During your trip to Kihei, enjoy the surf and sand at Kamaole Beach Park 3 along with the snorkeling. Wander the seaside or discover the beautiful sunsets in this romantic area.

Enjoy the peace and quiet at one of Maui’s less crowded and wider beaches, where kids can wander around the rock pools, and divers can explore the artificial reef.
