69’s Wailea Beach
Just a few minutes away from Hapuna Beach Park is 69’s Beach, a beautiful beach. This beach is perfect for those who like to read a book and surf the high waves. Mile 69 is where 69’s is located on the island. To get to the parking lot, you will have to drive down a dirt road. If you’re lucky enough to go in good weather, it’s best to arrive early. The parking lot can fill up quickly, so park on the road and walk a short distance to the beach. This beach is great for snorkeling, surfing, and skimboarding.
