Places to Eat
Great food on the beach! This is a must breakfast/brunch spot. They’re popular for their pineapple banana macadamia nut pancakes tipped with coconut syrup 😋. Get their early or around 11 am for decreased wait times.
The Gazebo
This place is a vibe! They have THE BEST Mai Tai’s and poke tacos. A must stop when in West Maui.

Beaches
One of my favorite Maui beaches. It’s very kid friendly, GREAT snorkeling, calm waves. And The Gazebo is located here which is a fantastic breakfast/brunch spot.
Napili Bay
Snorkeling
This is a small beach but very calm waters and lots of fish to see with plenty of coral!

Don’t let the name fool you. This is a great beach for swimming and snorkeling. Although you do have to go on a non-windy day and early in the morning for the calm snorkeling waters.
