About This Beach
Kaulahao Beach, also known as Tavares Beach, is a small, relatively secluded beach on Maui's north shore renowned for its abundant sea turtle population. Visitors can observe turtles basking on the sand and swimming in the water, but maintaining a respectful distance is crucial. While parking is available, it can be limited, especially during peak hours. The beach offers easy access but lacks amenities like restrooms and lifeguards.
