About This Beach
On Maui’s east coast near Hāna, Hamoa Beach is a crescent of silky sand bordered by lush cliffs and tropical greenery. Praised by travel magazines for its natural beauty, this spot offers excellent swimming and bodysurfing when conditions are calm. Restrooms and showers are available near the road, and the Hana-Maui Resort maintains a path to the sand.
The drive along the Hāna Highway is as famous as the beach itself—lush waterfalls, banana stands, and ocean lookouts lead to this idyllic coast. Bring snacks and allow time for the journey.
Best Time to Visit: April to September for warm, dry conditions.
