OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Ukumehame Beach
is a very uncrowded narrow sliver of beach
on the way to Lahaina. There is great
surfing for longboarders in front of the
beach park. It is located right next to the
highway, contributing to the lack of crowds,
plus the fact that there are nicer beaches
on Maui. But there are great views and
sunsets from this beach. Watching the
surfers is entertaining also.
There is decent snorkeling in this area when
the waves are down. The surfing is good.
The only amenities are at the park section
of this beach. There are picnic tables and
BBQ pits, but no bathrooms. You could go
down to Papalaua Beach located just south to
there portable bathrooms if you feel the
need. |

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. |
