Mokulau is a small town in Southeast Maui. Past the official end of the Hana Highway, there isn't much to do in Mokulau except take in the expansive scenery. Haleakala lava outcroppings are everywhere along with beautiful coastal views. The turn-off to Mokulau is just before mile marker 35 (makai side) and before the town of Kaupo.
Turn left onto the dirt road leading toward the ocean. You will pass Hui Aloha Church and cemetery. Park along the road and then walk to the shoreline. From here you can get some of the best views of the southeast Maui coastline. Hawaiian Monk Seals are known to hang out in this area. Do not swim here.
