Information
Makena Beach is known as one of the best beaches on Maui. It
is long, wide and very beautiful. Even if it is crowded, its
so big you can always find a nice spot with hardly anyone
around you. Beware of the dangerous shore break when the
swell is up. Many people have been hurt not paying attention
to the waves.
Directions
As you enter Kihei, take Piilani Hwy. 31 till you get to
Wailea, go down the hill and turn left at the light. Go
through Wailea to Makena. About two miles past the Makena
Prince Hotel you will see the entrances and parking areas
for Makena Beach (The first entrance, a dirt road, is Oneuli
beach, the black sand beach).

these activities.
