OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Hanakaoo or
"Canoe Beach" is a favorite of many locals
on Maui. The canoe clubs use this beach as a practice site. This
beach is also the beginning of a huge stretch of shoreline
which extends all the through Kaanapali and on to Honokowai.
It's basically the south end of Kaanapali
Beach. The beach is not to crowded if you don't come on
a canoe practice or race day.
The swimming and snorkeling a pretty good
here. And watching the canoe clubs practice
is entertaining as well. A jet ski company
is offshore, so watching the wave runners
can be exciting to.
There are only bathrooms and showers at this
beach. |

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. |
