Snorkeling at Honolua Bay, Maui - Hawaii

Honolua Bay is located on the west side of Maui and has some amazing snorkeling!

There is free street side parking. There are two trail entrances. One on the south side and one on the north side.

We took the south trail. We crossed an empty stream bed, but sometimes during the year it is flowing with water.

As we got to the beach area, it is all rocks. We set our backpacks down and got into the water to do some snorkeling.

We had an amazing time snorkeling and would highly recommend Honolua Bay!

We entered on the southern trail to Honolua Bay after parking on the side of the street.

We followed this trail all the way to the bay.

There was an empty stream bed that can have water flowing at other times of the year.

As you walk out to Honolua Bay, it is all rocks.

Here are some pics of our snorkeling.

This is the view of the rocky beach as we got out of the water.

Overall, we had an amazing time snorkeling and would definitely come back to snorkel again!
