D.T. Fleming Beach Park is a world-class beach located next to the Kapalua Resort on Maui, named in honor of David Thomas Fleming, who first introduced pineapple crops to the island's western region. The beach, which spans half a mile along a crescent-shaped stretch of coastline, is richly populated with powder white sands and is significantly less developed and tourist-heavy than nearby Ka'anapali Beach, offering ample space for visitors to stretch out along the beachfront. Good surf conditions are offered for experienced surfers and boogie boards, though visitors should note that strong rip currents can make water conditions dangerous at times. Professional lifeguards are staffed on duty, with jet-ski lifesaving operations offered throughout the coastline. Many picnic tables and barbecue grills offer opportunities for relaxation, with full-service restrooms and showers available for visitor use.
