The water at Kaanapali is amazingly clear. We saw schools of glittering fish and while watching the cliff jumpers. Superb!

Kaanapali Beach is probably the best beach destination on Maui if here on vacation with kids. The beautiful, long beach has all the famous hotels and condos but it is never crowded.

A beautiful, clean and uncrowded beach at the front of the many Ka'anapali Beach resorts. It is a steep beach which must be entered with care and between the red flags (surf life savers on patrol).

Ka'anapali Beach is a wonderful beach. My husband, our son and I used to snorkel there (we no longer snorkel as my husband can't be in the sun).

It seems a bit busy with heavy crowds but clean water and nice beach where you can have a great time!

Wow this Beach was fantastic what a beautiful way to see the Hawaii Maui coastline. We would definitely visit this area of Maui again it was beautiful spectacular sunsets and the food was incredible. This is one of the finest islands in Hawaii for sure.

I was there in late September, and the beach was great. The only drawback -- a lot of people. But, early mornings were serene and refreshing.

Please snorkel near the black cliff rocks! Excellent beach & snorkeling. The Sheraton Maui is your best bet to stay!
