Polo Beach Review

Somewhat less crowded than Wailea Beach, Polo Beach is formed from two sandy crescents in front of the Fairmont Kea Lani and Polo Beach Club.

This gorgeous, rocky beach is a favorite for locals and visitors on Maui and offers excellent sunset views and snorkeling when the conditions are calm.

Highly recommend for a relaxing day with friends and family.
