You'll get the best sunsets from this beach ???? #amazing

Kristen Repoli

Gorgeous beach and terrific sunsets . Recommend watching them up the hill by the four seasons. Softest sand on this beach and the water is gentle and crystal clear.

Sofya B

Come here to watch the sunset !!! It's incredible!

Hands down our favourite beach in Maui. The sand and beach are perfect, water is perfect to swim in & if you come in the evening, you'll get a breathtaking sunset .

Jennifer Krinke

Easy walk (paved path) between Marriott, Grand Wailea and Four Seasons. Huge Sea Turtles frequent the area for a swim .

Sam S

Great waves but when they say dangerous shore break, they mean it. You might get tossed around a bit if you're not careful.

Nico Pitney

"1.5 mile paved beach walk lets you stroll among Wailea's prettiest properties, restaurants , and rocky coves. Teems with joggers in the AM. Landscaped with exceptionally rare native plants."

Great beach to spend the day. Beware of the monthly jellyfish (Box & Man-o-war) swarms around 7-10 days after the full moon each month. See 808jellyfish.com for more info. Aloha!

This is the best beach . Quiet , chill , great water and view . ❤️

John R.

Great public (free) beach with easy access to awesome snorkeling . Look along rocks to south for lots of stuff. Saw a turtle there that had to be 5 ft long and a few hundred pounds.

Kelsey Follett

Rented paddleboards ($20/he from Four Seasons). We had never paddleboarded and it was a blast. Takes a lot of balance. We saw lots of turtles and sting reys. Really awesome.

Amy Chan

Don’t need to go far out just stand in about 4 feet of water and the turtle will swim by. Just have goggles so you can dive under to look at them!

Tammy Ash Perkins

This beach is smack dab in the middle of the Grand Wailea Resort and the Four Seasons Resort . The parking lot is tiny - only enough for about 15 vehicles.

Rick Bucich

Lots of fish and sea turtles right off shore. Very mild waves , kid friendly beach . Try paddle boarding, it's just challenging enough to keep it interesting. Strong winds in the afternoon so take advan

Allison Abbott-Kline

September is perfect - no crowds and gorgeous views !

Be sure to ask for a complimentary umbrella & lawn chair if you are a hotel guest (based upon availability)

Public beach with restrooms , limited parking (about 20-30 spaces). You can use the showers of grand hotel Wailea.

Great beach . And snorkel trips stop here for sea turtle sightings.

Awesome!!! Waves are 8 to 10 foot w/ Huge tidal surges!! Not many in the water but fun to watch the pounding surf & the few brave body boarders!

Seriously the best sand ever! Go early in the day when the waves are calm . Love it!

Softest sand we have ever felt anywhere. That includes other beaches on Maui, Kauai , Florida, Key West as well as Italy, Tahiti and all the West Indies.

When the waves are crashing, it's definitely worth grabbing a floaty. Especially late night . The ocean water stays warm!
