Makena is a scenic coastal community located on the southwest coast of Maui, Hawaii, USA. The area is known for its pristine natural beauty and quality beaches, most notably Makena Beach State Park, which contains Big Beach and Little Beach.
Stretching nearly two-thirds of a mile, Big Beach's golden sands contrast with the clear turquoise waters, making it a popular spot for swimming, sunbathing and surfing. The adjacent smaller beach is more secluded, surrounded by volcanic rock and known for its relaxed atmosphere and occasional weekend drumming circles. The Makena area also boasts black volcanic rock formations and abundant marine life for snorkeling and whale watching.
As one of Maui's high-end resort areas, Makena boasts luxury resorts and golf courses. Visitors can experience world-class water sports or explore the eastern foothills of the nearby volcano, Ahuihina. The area is relatively removed from the hustle and bustle, providing an ideal habitat for travelers seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
