What we say
Maui's nude beach is very gay popular.
Little beach is in Makena State Park, which is south of Wailea, just about as far south as you can drive. One mile past the Maui Prince Hotel, turn right at the sign for Makena State Park. It's easy to miss, so be on the lookout and turn into the parking lot. Walk towards the water and the "Big Beach". Walk to the right (north) all the way to the end and hike up and over the lava-flow trail to get to the beach (you'll usually see other people doing this). Little beach is a nude beach and the far side is the gay part.

Little Beach is the local name for the part of Makena Beach that is clothing-optional. After you park and walk to the beach, you will find yourself on Big Beach, which is the mainstream portion, and a beautiful beach in itself. Then walk to the right and hike over the lava formation to find yourself at Little Beach, which is the clothing-optional (and HOTTER!) area of the same beach. Since Makena Beach can be a little bit hard to find, it's handy to be able to consult their website (yes, a nude beach with a website!) to be sure you know where you're going. The website, LittleBeachMaui.com, provides directions as well as beach etiquette hints! I like to spend an afternoon on Little Beach every time I go to Maui, or my trip just doesn't seem complete!
