Location
Wailea is on the south western
slope of Haleakala bordering the ocean, just south of Kihei.
Information & History
Wailea is one of Hawaii's
best luxury beach resort destinations; it is literally an
oasis of greenery in a semi-arid climate. A series of five
pocket beaches bounded by black lava points provide for
great swimming conditions in the calm water. Enjoy all the
white sandy beaches, which are connected by a coastal walk
and landscaped minipark that stretches for two miles.
Strolling along this palm-lined shore, you may see humpback
whales breaching or enjoy a beautiful sunset. Ulua Beach,
the middle beach at Wailea, has the clearest and best waters
for snorkeling, and it is the favorite of Hollywood movie
stars. While these beaches are open to the public, the rich
and famous frequent Wailea's elegant beachfront hotels.
