Little Beach (Makena State Park)

Little Beachin

Has to be one of the best beaches I have ever been to! The Sand is pristine and I’m not sure what people are talking about but it’s very clean! Rather easy to get to, just up and over a little lava flow trail. Just go slow and where shoes/Flip flops and don’t be a pussy. Most gay people off the the right of the beach, but everyone is friendly. The surf is wonderful, but again be carful! Especially if your new or not use to it. There are trails that lead into the ..backwoods (need I say more) You can swim, snorkel around the beach just watch out for minnows in the water. Enjoy one of the best beaches ever!

GO AT YOUR OWN RISK! To get to this beach you must climb an EXTREMELY treacherous and narrow path up a high, jagged, volcanic-rock cliff that separates the small beach from the larger one next to it. I am not aware of any other way to get there. It is VERY dangerous for older or unfit men or women. I suggest wearing hiking boots or water shoes if you must go up there. DO NOT TRY TO CLIMB UP WITH FLIP FLOPS it's suicide!!!! I would even bring gloves if you don't want cuts on your hand from grabbing the SHARP volcanic Rock as you ascend. There's only one way up & down and it's barely wide enough for one person. I saw a man bleeding from a fall and turned back, for me it was not worth the difficult trek, or risking an injury while on vacation; then dealing with stitches, broken skin, limbs etc. Not worth it just for the ability to go naked. If you go, bring a back-pack with LOTS of water, sunscreen, food, small umbrella and wear hiking boots while going up and down. Bring some kind of gloves that have a well padded grip. I wish they would create a safe way to get there, but then it would lose it's cash'e I suppose and get crowded. Anyway, you have been warned...

A Maui Must

I believe any visit to Maui is not complete until you make a day at Little Beach. Pack-up your beach bag, plenty of beverages and make the walk over from Big Beach. This small stretch of sand is worth the trek over and is a great place to unwind and enjoy the Hawaiian sun either with your speedo on or off. No one will judge as this beach welcomes all. Maholo!

Nice

Great Sun & Surf... boogie boarding or body-surfing. Spent our 25th anniversary in Maui. Little Beach was the best!
