MM Maluaka Beach
Directly in front of the Makena Beach and Golf Resort, Maluaka Beach is everything
you've ever wanted in a beach. Locals refer to it as Prince Beach, since the hotel used
to be called the Maui Prince. There's good snorkeling around the north end of the beach,
fun waves for boogie boarding during the summer, ample parking, restrooms and showers,
a grassy area for relaxing, and a beach activity stand right on the shoreline for renting a
stand-up paddleboard or snorkeling equipment. This beach is perfect. Mornings are best at
this beach for a couple of reasons, but mainly because during summer the wind can turn
the sea to whitecaps. The afternoons can also be overcast when you get this far south, as
Makena sits directly beneath a cloud that forms every afternoon across the slope of Haleak-
ala.
Maluaka Beach is a favorite of island locals.
