Located in a convenient area of Wailea and only a short walk from the most popular resorts, Wailea Beach is a beautiful option for relaxed swimming and family-friendly fun.
While it can get crowded due to its close proximity to resorts, it is a scenic beach and the perfect place to try scuba diving from the shore, stand-up paddle boarding and more. The resorts have lawn chairs and umbrellas available for those staying with them. You can also rent kayaks, boards and gear from the beach.
