Kahekili Beach Park
West Maui Beaches
Kahekili Beach is the Northernmost beach in the Ka'anapali Beach Resort area, directly in front of the Westin Ka'anapali Ocean Resort Villas. It is often less crowded and commercialized than nearby Ka'anapali Beach.
Kahekili Beach is long and has soft sands, there are facilities - and like most beaches in the Ka'anapali area, Kahekili does not disappoint. There is a reef just offshore that parallels the shoreline.

To access the water for the best snorkeling, head from the parking lot and enter in front of the pavilion. The beach itself is sandy and easy on bare feet, but once you enter the water the rocks and reef begin rather quickly, so you'll probably want your fins on so you can float over the reef without stubbing your toes.
