Stopped here while walking the trail. The little bay is very protected, and the reef on the left side of the bay has a lot of pretty coral and fish. If you've never snorkeled before, or if you're intimidated by the open water, this is great place to view the fish and turtles.
From our Golf Villa it was about à 10 minute wali. Its free to go on the beach. There are snorkal rentals and a shower. We snorkaled à few times.We saw lots of turtles and all kinds of fish. If you are staying nearby I would recomend going.
Nothing nicer than watching sunset from Kapalua Beach. Tranquil bay perfect for swimming, snorkeling, sun bathing. Finish the day with a drink or dinner at Merrimans.
For those who don't like agitated waters / surf (my case!). Excellent for kids, snorkeling and watching the turtles early morning and late afternoon.
This beach offers plenty to see in the way of fish marine life and turtles on either the left hand side or if you are willing to swim a little further out on the right. The right hand side had a bit of a current so best for those comfortable in the water. Choose your spot when entering the water to avoid the rocks/coral.
we had about a 2 hour swim in this bay and saw beautiful corals and tons of fish plus three or four turtles. It was slightly rough when we were there so it was not at its best but it was still really nice easy sandy entrance and a nice place to relax after the swim. PSM
if you want to go paddle boarding or floating around this is the place for beginners. It's calm and beautiful! A bit rocky compared to Napili Bay but still amazing
Great place to watch surfers (waves can be very large), or surf yourself! We have also seen Spinner Dolphins in the area.
Very nice sheltered beach for snorkerling from high surf advisory warnings. We saw turtles on this beach. Great beach for beginner snorkelers and young children. It has showers to wash off sand and clean bathrooms. Good parking and can rent surf boards,kayaks and uptight paddle boards. Downside it is a small beach and gets crowded fast.
I prefer this bay for snorkeling to Napili just to the south. It's very easy to access just to the south. There's a small parking lot that's often full and parking along the main road. The beach is wide open and easy to get to. Best snorkeling is on the ends of the bay.
