Kamaole Beach Park
Kihei has a string of three marvellous beaches worthy of the best tropical destinations.
These all have powdery white sand and are delimited by volcanic outcrops with tidepools to explore. Not only are all three well-served by restaurants and food trucks, they’re also equipped with facilities like lifeguards, showers, grassy picnic areas and grills.
The longest and broadest of the three is Kamaole Beach Park I, to the north, which normally has superb conditions for swimming.
“Kam III”, at the south end, is the smallest and rockiest of the three, but has a generous grassy space and is bathed by lively waves, ideal for activities like boogie boarding.
In between, “Kam II” is loved by swimmers and snorkelers for its sandy bottom and light surf.
And as you laze on the sand, all three beaches have phenomenal views over the channel to the Molokini crater and the Kaho’olawe and Lana’i islands.
