Waiʻānapanapa State Park
Admission includedStanding at Waiʻānapanapa State Park, the contrast is immediate and unforgettable. Jet-black volcanic sand meets the churning turquoise surf, while ironwood trees bend in the salt wind above the shoreline. The air carries the scent of sea spray and wet lava rock. Waiʻānapanapa State Park rewards those who linger with hidden sea caves, blowholes, and a coastal trail that winds through some of the most dramatic scenery on Maui.
