Kam 2 (as the locals call it) is a great beach. In the morning, before the winds come up, it is also a great little snorkeling beach. Stay to your left and snorkel through several schools of fish. Go to the point and then towards the right side and you just may spot a couple of sea turtles that have... More

All the beaches are great...but this one is by far the most beautiful of the three. They are conveniently located right across the street from many condos including the Maui Banyan Resort. Family picnic...read a good book...great place to stay. More

We always go halfway between this beach & Kamaoli Beach 3. There's a bunch of rocks that stick out into the sea & if you get there at the right moment, you'll get a chance to swim with & photograph turtles. The snorkeling is wonderful here too! More

We stay right across the street from here, and have two little ones. This beach doesn't disappoint. Bring your chair, umbrella, and sand toys. Aloha! More

This is my fourth trip to Maui, so I can say I know this beach and its competitors very well. My husband and I are serious recreational swimmers, and we swim this beach every day we can in Maui because it is free of rocks, has good lifeguards, has interesting coral and occasional giant turtles that we pass in the...
