During south and west swells excellent waves can be found in the immediate area. Watch for the shallow fish pond south of the park as water is shallow here even at high tide. Access to other locations both up and down the coast can be easily reached from this park and launching area, Particularly Waimahaihai Beach. It should be noted that the water in this area (from Kalama to Maipoina Oe Lau) can be nasty certain times of the year due to inland run off (brown water).

Why the Owner Chose Other Kihei Properties
What makes our vacation cottage "hale" so special and unique? The KanaKala Pacific 'Ohana hale is located in the sunny bay side city of Kihei. Our rental lies at the base of the majestic Haleakala Volcano, the world's largest dormant volcano, and at the shores of the white sandy beaches of the blue Pacific waters. Kihei is the fastest growing small island community in the Pacific. It lays on the seashore of the largest bay (Maalaea) in the world. The Hawaiian islands are the furthest islands from any land mass in the world. Maui has been voted the best island in the world year after year! All this and being surrounded by "Aloha" makes this place "Maui...No ka 'oi" (Maui is the best)
