Maui Beach Travel Tips

  • Rent a car, grab a map, and hit the road to explore the more than 30 miles of sandy shore that fringe the island, offering beaches to suit every personality and activity in shades of white, red, pink, and black—like the black-sand Honokalani Beach, in a picturesque cove on the famous road to Hana.
  • Maui's liveliest beach scene, Ka'anapali Beach fronts a long stretch of resorts, restaurants, and the Whaler's Village shopping center and boasts three miles of sugar-white sand perfect for sunbathing, watersports, or a sailing cruise. Teralani and Trilogy run catamarans right from the beach.
  • The numerous secluded coves that line the northern coast of West Maui offer great swimming and snorkeling during the summer months, while north swells make these ideal surfing and bodyboarding spots during the winter. D.T. Fleming Beach Park is a favorite beach, with lifeguards, bathrooms, picnic tables, and other amenities.

Maui Beach Overview Travel Overview

Maui got its nickname, "The Valley Isle," from the windswept depression that divides the verdant West Maui Mountains and Haleakala, the island's towering, 10,000-foot volcano.Read More
