Maui's Diverse Collection Of Beaches

By Ella Hemmings


Whether you love sitting by the waves and bathing in the sun or you want to take a look at the life that lives under the sea or perhaps ride a few waves on a surf board, it's also possible to do in Maui. With 120 miles of coastline, there's a special place for everyone to enjoy their favorite activity.

Hawaiians love to surf which isn't surprising considering that their Polynesian ancestors invented this popular sport. There are plenty of great surfing spots on Maui, although some do tend have the big waves more suitable for experienced surfers. If you crave the adrenaline rush of big waves, head to Honolua Bay or perhaps Peahi, which is a fantastic tow-in spot. If you are just starting out, the milder waves at Kaanapali Beach will be a much better option and a lot less intimidating.

Kayaking is a popular way to enjoy the ocean and an alternative view of Maui. Kihei is an excellent spot for kayaking and many tour companies are based here. La Perouse Bay is another option offering kayak treks suitable for beginners as well as more advanced kayakers. Other options include kayaking in Honolua Bay or perhaps on Makena Beach. Hanako'o Beach Park is a more remote spot, popular with locals, who have nicknamed the area as Canoe Beach.

If you love swimming in the ocean, Maui has plenty of options. DT Flemming has several coves ideal for those who just want to splash around and enjoy the water. Kahekili Beach Park is another option and is a popular option for families as the waters are fairly shallow. Along with swimming, many people love snorkeling and diving in Maui and there are plenty of good spots to consider. One of the top snorkeling spots is actually just off the coast of the island at the Molokini crater. The aforementioned Kahekili Beach also has a beautiful reef on its outer shore which attracts many snorkelers.

One of the reasons why many couples choose Maui as their destination is because of its romantic nature. Maui is a destination wedding hotspot and thousands of people head here to marry or renew their vows. Kapaula Bay is a great spot for a beach wedding, particularly in the late afternoon. Makena Cove is a romantic wedding spot or you could opt for the scenery of Napili Bay, DT Flemming or even Keawakapu Beach.

A Maui destination wedding is far easier to plan than a traditional wedding because you simply leave the majority of the details in the hands of your Maui wedding planner. The wedding planning experts at Love Maui Weddings can take on everything from finding the perfect beach and acquiring a beach permit to finding a minister and even hiring traditional Hawaiian musicians and dancers. They offer an assortment of Maui wedding packages that range from simple elopement ceremonies to grand affairs and every size in between.
