  • Great way to get from one beach or resort to another. This is much quicker than driving to the shops or restaurants.

  • This beach is pretty cool for sunsets and to hang out with the kids. The waves are not very high and have seen lot of families with kids hanging out here. Right across the road there are ton of amazing food options to explore after spending some time at the beach. Must visit!
  • GREAT SPOT FOR SUNSETS AND PHOTOGRAPHY Amazing Views . If you were to Avis it one beach then I would suggest this one . There is a beauty beachside path which goes behind many resorts. This area is well maintained. You can easily spend 2 to 2.5 hours.
  • Beautiful beach to watch the waves rush in. We were even able to make a few whale sightings. Just don't make the mistake of thinking the beach chairs and umbrella are there for public use. After you get settled in a nice man will come and tell you they are for resort guests only, or you can rent them for $45, even though there are no signs posted. Guess we should have known better. 🙃
  • Wailea beach is beautiful and honestly it's got to be one of thr safest beaches I've ever been too. The water is a great temperature and it gradually gets deeper the further out you go but very moderately. It's safe because there is just fine sand on the bottom as if it were the beach with water, there are also no coral or rocks unless you to the far right where there is a rock formation. On this day the waves were very small and safe as well. Great spot for sunset.
  • Great beach. Super sandy, no real rocks and the waves aren't very big. The public beach access is right after the Grand Wailea. There's a good amount of parking, a restroom and a shower pole. There's a paved path and steps down to the beach.
