Slaughterhouse Beach

Awesome beach for snorkeling, body surfing, and just lounging on the sand. Pretty limited parking, which keeps the beach from getting too crowded. Rented some snorkel gear in town and swam with a turtle within 10 minutes of getting in the water. Tons of fish to see and the water was perfect and not too choppy. I would definitely recommend this beach if you want to find some awesome sea life on your snorkeling adventure!

Fantastic! Great for snorkeling and not too crowded. We went in the morning and had some great weather. There is a long staircase to get down to the beach, but easily done.

It was really windy but we saw a turtle 🤩 And lots of fishes:)))Very nice beach , you can spend a lot of time. Lots of wild chikens and hens🤣 be careful while you eat something 🤣🤣🤩

We love coming here when we're in Maui. Every time I've been there are very little people. It's a hidden gem. Very limited parking off the side of the highway but we've never had any issues. We have seen honu every time we've gone. The waves aren't too rough but also not the smoothest. But still friendly enough to get in. FYI there is stairs to get down to the beach

Amazing snorkeling spot. Small beach, but will get busy. Go early in the morning to secure a good spot on the beach and parking, as parking is sparse. Wild chickens running around.

Decent snorkeling, especially on the east side around in the cove, there are a bunch of little tunnels and ruts to dive down in. We saw an octopus, so that was exciting.

Slaughterhouse Beach is a stunning, more secluded spot in Maui, perfect for snorkeling and body surfing when the conditions are right. The beach is accessible via a set of stairs, which might be challenging for some, and parking is limited along the road. It's less crowded due to the limited access, which makes it an ideal escape. The clear waters and nearby reefs offer great snorkeling, especially on calmer days. However, be mindful of the rocks in the surf and check the tide times before visiting.

Maui’s best kept secret! Great place to snorkel. Beautiful sunset. Every now and then you’ll have a turtle sighting either on the beach or while snorkeling. Parking is limited. You may need to park on the side of the road. Bring a chair and umbrella. There is barely any shade except close to the cliff which can be very rocky. Take all necessary items (sunblock, towels, drinking water, snacks, snorkel gear, etc) with you the first time around. The stairwell to the beach can be quite tiring. Where sturdy sandals as you don’t want to slip and fall. Don’t feed the chickens or they will bug you for food.
