D.T. Fleming Beach is a stunning white-sand beach on Maui's northwest coast, known for its powerful waves that attract bodyboarders and experienced swimmers. Part of the Kapalua Resort, it offers ample space for sunbathing and picnicking under ironwood trees. The beach's dramatic setting against the West Maui Mountains and its consistent surf make it a favorite for both locals and visitors. Lifeguards are on duty, and facilities include restrooms and showers. It's also a prime spot for watching the sunset over the Pacific.

Don't miss

  • Bodyboard or bodysurf in the strong shore break waves.
  • Picnic under the shade of ironwood trees along the beach.
  • Watch the sunset from the beach's western end.
