Best Beaches in Maui — Ka’anapali, Wailea, Big Beach & Hidden Gems

Maui has over 30 miles of beaches — from wide resort sands to hidden coves accessible only by trail.

Ka’anapali Beach

Maui’s most popular resort beach — a 3-mile stretch of golden sand fronting the major Ka’anapali resort hotels. Excellent swimming, snorkeling at Black Rock (the lava cliff at the north end where cliff divers jump at sunset), and the Whaler’s Village shopping center. This is where most visitors spend their beach time.
