Dock wisdom

·

Makena Landing (south end) is the quietest Maui boat launch — closer to sea caves than Maalaea.

·

Morning trips have the calmest water; afternoon winds in the Alalakeiki Channel can create chop.

·

Monk seals occasionally rest on Makena beach — state law requires a 150-foot buffer. Enjoy from a distance.

·

Little Beach is 'clothing optional' by long local tradition — factor into your morning walk plans.
