Kahakuloa Bay
5.0FreeA dramatic, scenic coastal cove along Maui's rugged northern coastline.
Kahakuloa Bay is a secluded, picturesque cove nestled along the remote northwest coast of Maui near historic Kahakuloa Village. Framed by towering emerald cliffs and the prominent Kahakuloa Head, the bay offers breathtaking panoramic views of the island's untouched northern shore. Due to strong ocean currents and a rocky shoreline, it is best enjoyed as a scenic stop rather than a swimming area.
