The Kealia Coastal Boardwalk Trail at Kealia Pond National Wildlife
Refuge in Kihei, Maui is an easy 0.8 mile out-and-back walk that runs
between the ocean and Kealia Pond.
The trail leads out to a
couple different hut-like viewing areas where you get views of the
mountains surrounding central Maui (west Maui mountains and the
Haleakala range to the east), the beach, Kealia Pond, and the island of Lanai off the coast.
There are also several small spur trails that leads out to the beach, which is usually not crowded.
Dogs are not allowed on this trail.
Respecting the Land
Hawaiian land is considered sacred to native Hawaiians and many locals, so please stay on-trail, take nothing but photos, and leave nothing but footprints. Respect the locals - don't stay for long and have a backup hike planned in case the parking lot is full.
