Description
Honokowai Beach, meaning 'bay for drawing water,' is located in a heavily developed area in western Maui, Hawaii. Once an area where freshwater springs were found at the water’s edge, today the beach park is a welcome relief from a shoreline that's almost completely dominated by condo complexes. A short section of beachfront has been reserved for beach-goers and picnickers at the Honokowai Beach Park.
Although its rocky bottom doesn't lend well for swimming and water sports, the area does offer an opportunity for snorkeling. Along the reef, snorkelers may explore the nooks and crevices for coral shrimp, lobsters, small octopus, eels and crabs. Showers, bathrooms, picnic tables, BBQ grills and playgrounds round out the park amenities.
