Review:
If you're a wildlife lover or nature enthusiasts, Kalepolepo Beach Park is quite simply the best Kihei beach location for you. This beach is part of the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary, meaning that beach-goers will have a chance of spotting some whales with a little luck.
Even if you don't see the whales, a fascinating feature of this beach is the presence of an old fishpond that has been around for several centuries and was once used by royalty. The pond has been lovingly restored and maintained by local volunteers and is fed by natural hot springs, creating a warm, safe little swimming area, just right for families with young children. You’ll also find a few educational plaques and posts around this beach to learn more about the local history and culture.
