Napili Bay

Amazing small cove beach. Stunning views, calm waters and great snorkeling with a beautiful reef close to the shore. We saw a lot of different fish and also turtles! The beach is a bit hidden and make sure to enter via the public access path and not through the private properties that are on the beachfront. No restrooms or lifeguards but there was a small snack shop nearby. There is a Boss Frogs location about a mile away if you need snorkel gear.

Its a longer beach, and we loved swimming in the bay body surfing. Pretty sure we glanced at a sea turtle in the waves while we were out there. Just be safe! Stopped right into The Sea House, wet and sand from the beach without any issues. Sat at the bar there for Happy Hour and it was perfect!

We had a great time. My son loves snorkeing and there were many large green turtles, eels, the state fish with a funny name and other colorful fish. It was not overcrowded when we went later in the day and the water was delightful. The more you float and don't splash around the more you see.

This was our first beach in Maui and it did not disappoint. Super calm waters and lots of reef to explore so the snorkeling was phenomenal (we saw turtles). We did get here early at 8AM but at around 11AM it got pretty full so I recommend getting first thing in the morning.

Beautiful Beautiful beach. Street parking is there for the finding and a short walk. Lots of resorts that have food for purchase. You'll have to use a resort wash station for clean up. Water just has that Hawaiian Tropic oil sheen gleaming on the water which is not my kind of beach but maybe for others.

Absolutely stunning beach! So clean and clear. Kick up sand in the water and seconds later it's settled again. Snorkeling near black rock is fantastic. So many awesome creatures to watch from far away and close up. At sunset, the local resort has a loudspeaker and they play music and some hula dancing happens that you can sort of see from the beach. At the end, as the sun sinks below the horizon, people dive off of black rock. It is a great beach to visit! I love going around 4 or 5, when I can skip the sunscreen and swim without worry.

We got to do snorkeling 🤿 in this bay! Twas a bit of cloudy weather but the despite of it we enjoyed seeing all kinds of beautiful sea creatures like fishes and a sea turtle 🐢! Twas a definitely beautiful and highlight of our trip in Maui! Love to do snorkeling when the weather is beautiful as well!

Beautiful! Incredible snorkeling. If you get there before noon, part of the beach is fully shaded.
