15. Wailea Beach
Framed by the manicured grounds of five-star resorts and incredibly lush tropical vegetation, Wailea Beach is a masterpiece of luxury and natural Hawaiian beauty. The beach features a wide crescent of exceptionally soft, golden coral sand that gently slopes down into a brilliant, azure-blue ocean. The waters here are generally very calm, making it an idyllic spot for leisurely swimming and stand-up paddleboarding. When the Pacific is flat, the rocky lava points offer fantastic snorkeling alongside graceful sea turtles and vibrant tropical fish.
