Reviews
"A nice little secluded beach in the Wailea area. Went here as it is a very popular spot for snorkeling, there are some turtles and fish, but you have to go further from the beach. Honestly, I think there are better spots for snorkeling activities in Maui. There is a decent amount of parking, you can also park along the road and walk to the beach. There are restrooms and showers. The down side to this location was the amount of other people here. A lot of locals like to have a picnic and drinks here on the weekends."
"A seclude beach in Wailea. It is beautiful with lava rock formation. Also a very popular spot for snorkeling. Saw many snorkelers in the water. There are decent amount of parking spaces. It has restroom, shower facilities for beach goers. There are shaded area, sandbeach area. Rental booth."
"Great snorkeling spot for turtles. There's not a ton of fish, but it's still very nice. I'd go there again. The grassy area near the beach is perfect for a picnic. Showers and a restroom make it even better."
"At this time, there's road construction making it a little more difficult to get to. Public restrooms are nice to have. Small beach but a larger beach next to it and yet another beach about 0.4 miles further down from that one. Neat looking old church in between (can't see from the beaches)"
"I learned to dive here. I've been here about 4 times. There are a few commercial groups that come here. Usually groups of up to 4. The dive is nice, a few caves to check out. Turtles and sometimes sharks as well. Can be choppy with some surge. Clarity is about 40 to 50 feet usually. Outside showers available for rinsing. Bathrooms available. Pretty cool vibe. Oh yeah, the birds are little terrors."
