Recreation
In addition to beachcombing, sunbathing and relaxing, Wailea and Makena beaches provide magnificent starting points for ocean sports and activities. From snorkeling to sailing, surfing to kayaking and whale watching to diving, the variety of ocean activities you can enjoy during your Wailea beach resort vacation is virtually limitless.
On the Wailea coastal walk, you can look for whales through the telescope installed by the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary. For a closer look, take a whale-watching cruise out of either Lahaina or Maalea harbor. To get up close and personal with these 40-ton gentle giants, take a whale-watching kayak or raft excursion out of Lahaina Harbor.
Even if you're not usually the sporting type, you don't want to miss the chance to try snorkeling on Maui. The waters offshore are so clear that snorkelers are guaranteed to see tropical fish in every color of the rainbow.
As the ultimate way to explore the underwater world of Hawaii, scuba diving enables you to see Maui's more than 100 tropical marine species, investigate sea caves, and swim with sea turtles and monk seals in the clear tropical waters off the island. The most popular spot on the island is Molokini, a marine-life park inside a crescent-shaped crater that has three tiers of diving: a 35-foot plateau inside the crater basin, a wall sloping to 70 feet just beyond the inside plateau and a sheer wall on the outside and backside of the crater than plunges 350 feet.
To really appreciate Maui, you need to get off the land and onto the sea. Trade winds off the Lahaina Coast and the strong wind that rips through Maui's isthmus make sailing around the island exciting. Many different boats, from three-masted schooners to catamarans and spacious trimarans, offer day cruises from Maui.
Maui has Hawaii's best windsurfing beaches, thanks to brisk winds and dependable waves. In winter, windsurfers from around the world flock to Paia to ride the waves. Hookipa Beach Park, on Maui's windward side, attracts top windsurfers from around the globe. The best place to watch these athletes leap over the waves is on the grassy cliffs above the beach. They take to the water after noon (board surfers claim the waves in the morning).
