This gorgeous 1.5-mile paved coastal path in Wailea connects five stunning South Maui beaches, winding past luxury resorts like the Grand Wailea and Four Seasons with spectacular ocean views. The narrow path gets busy (especially during peak hours), so be ready to dodge other walkers and joggers as you take in the lush landscaping and lava rock outcroppings. In winter months, this becomes one of Maui's premier shore-based whale watching spots — humpbacks breach and tail-slap close enough to see their details. The path is lit for safe evening walks, when you can peek into resort properties and catch their evening entertainment programs.
💡 Insider Tip
Walk south to north for the best sunset views, and don't miss the most scenic stretch between Grand Wailea and Four Seasons. In winter, bring binoculars and claim one of the benches to scan for whales — they're almost guaranteed.
