About This Beach
Punalau Beach is a secluded, rocky beach on the north shore of Maui, accessible via a challenging, steep, and rough road best suited for 4x4 vehicles. Known for its stunning coastal views, strong waves popular with surfers, and lack of amenities, it offers a tranquil escape from crowded beaches. The rocky shore and strong waves make swimming difficult, but it's perfect for those seeking solitude and scenic beauty.
