Review:

Charley Young Beach is relatively unknown to tourists because of its small and hidden location. With a humble 3-car parking space, the beach sees a relatively low number of visitors. The beach is located at Kamaole 1’s northern tip and is known for the high number of sea turtles that swim along the coast. Although it’s not the best beach for swimming or snorkeling, what Charley Young Beach has going for it is its natural beauty. It’s easily one of the most stunning beaches in Kihei, but it’s also a great beach for boogie boarding, and fishing. The surf at Charley Young Beach can get rough with high swells and strong currents, so visitors should swim with caution.
