Little Beach (Makena State Park)

Sunday is the best....

...add to all the other reviews that on Sunday (at least when I was there) people brought their drums and there was a neat sound of tribal drumming throughout the day. At dusk some guys were twirling fire batons like you see at the luaus. Very cool. Make a day of it, pack a little cooler with some treats and drinks and you'll never want to leave.

nothing here

No doubt about it, we were at the right place. I wanted to get a little naughty with my bf, until he looked over and saw people at the golf course standing on a deck and peering in our direction. Nope, not at all the experience one would expect based on previous reviews. It may have been fun then, but certainly not that way when we were there.

Paradise

This beach really is like you are in a tropical paradise. The parking lot is a good size,the walk is not to far,as you cross over big beach up and over the lava rocks, to a secluded smaller beach.Un like the nude beach in Miami, you can not see or hear hotels or traffic around you.You can snorkel along a section of lava rocks,or stroll into the wooded areas for a little fun .A must do in Maui at least once.

Voyeur? Exhibitionist? This Place is for YOU!

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!
