    Hiking

    Kaihalulu is a unique spot on Maui and only one of very few red sand beaches in the world. The red sand is a result of the iron-rich volcanic cinder cone that surrounds the beach. The deep red sand, contrasting with the blue waters of the ocean, make this a really special place. And even though its beauty, it is still a hidden gem of the island.

    Hiking

    Here, too, it is worth making the usual stops on the Road to Hana on the way back to the beach.

    Hiking

    In the water about 5-15 in front of the beach there are protective rocks. A refreshing bath is therefore possible.
