Kapalua Coastal Trail & Beach
One of West Maui’s most scenic walks, followed by snorkeling and a waterfront lunch.
Best Time to Go
Arrive by 9 AM — free parking fills fast and there’s no shade on the trail at midday.
Kapalua Coastal Trail
3.5-mile out-and-back along the coastline. Mostly flat and unpaved. Optional side trip to Dragon’s Teeth — stay back from edges and wet rocks, waves are unpredictable.
