Paako Beach (Secret Cove) at a Glance
Paako Beach is located on Maui’s southern coast, just
south of Makena “Big Beach.” Even though this beach is
also known as Secret Cove, it’s actually not so secret.
It’s a popular spot for weddings. The beach probably got
this name because it’s hidden between homes in Makena.
To reach it, you have to go along a rock wall behind one
would never expect such a nice beach, if one doesn’t
know it’s there.
The sandy area is quite small and because many weddings
are performed there, you have to be lucky if you want to
have it for yourself. The lava rocks on the beach create
a nice scenery for picture-taking.
It’s not a good beach for swimming, but the snorkeling
conditions are good. There are also some shady areas.
You won’t find any facilities here. Most people come
here for the lovely scenery and nice views.
