OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Said to be the
longest beach on Maui, Sugar Beach - also
known as Kealia Beach - is considered one of
Maui’s most magnificent stretches of
oceanfront. At 5 miles long, it’s perfect
for a long beach stroll.
A pristine beach with sand like soft brown
sugar situated in Kihei on Maui’s south
shore, the shoreline is also a popular
launch beach for kayaks and canoes.
Snorkeling is also good here, with crystal
clear waters showing off sea turtles and
eagle rays, and both windsurfers and
kitesurfers take advantage of breezy
offshore winds.
Sugar Beach, stretching from Maalaea all the
way to North Kihei is located near resorts
and condos, but the beach itself s rarely
crowded. |

While
Hawaii's beaches can bring much enjoyment,
it is always a good practice to use common
sense while visiting them. Please be aware
of the wave & wind conditions before going
into the water. Mornings are usually best
for swimming, snorkeling or diving. Have
respect for the strength of the waves and be
aware that high surf can come up at any
time. NEVER turn your back to the ocean.
Be careful when exploring any rocky
shorelines. Waves can crash on the rocks and
knock you over easily, and the rocks may
also be sharp when walking on them.
When snorkeling or scuba diving, please have
respect for ocean life, and remember that
the coral reef is alive too. Avoid standing
on or touching if at all possible. |
