Pohaku Park is located in Napili-Honokowai. if you’re staying at any of the resorts or condos just north of Kaanapali, then this lovely little beach is a short walk away.

This is a great low-key spot to catch the sunset, get a view of Molokai, and maybe catch some turtles swimming around. The beach itself is a nice little cozy spot, with a few picnic tables and benches. There is a small parking lot here and most of the time you will have no trouble scoring a spot. The park has a place to rinse off and one porta potty.

In the winter, you can watch surfers right out front, although the break is pretty far away from the beach.

After catching sunset, head over to one of my favorite little gems on the island – Dollie’s Pub. Maui Brewing Co. is right around the corner as well.

Napili Bay (Napili Beach) is located right by Napili Kai Beach Club. It is a breathtaking crescent shape beach with soft sand and crystal clear blue water.

You can walk the Kapalua Coastal Trail from Kapaula Beach to Napili Beach.

Kapaula Beach was rated the most beautiful beach in America just a few years ago, and it’s easy to see why. The snorkeling here is amazing, it feels like you are swimming in an aquarium.

If you are nervous about being in the water but are still looking to get one snorkel session in during your Maui vacation, this is the beach for you. It’s fairly sheltered so the water is usually calm.

Watch out on low tide for shallow reef as you are getting in the water.

Keep an eye out for turtles!
