Mokapu and Ulua

Fodor's Review:

Look for a little road and public parking lot next to the Wailea Marriott. This gets you to Mokapu and Ulua beaches. Though there are no lifeguards, families love this place. Reef formations create tons of tide pools for kids to explore and the beaches are protected from major swells. Snorkeling is excellent at Ulua, the beach to the left of the entrance. Mokapu, to the right, tends to be less crowded. The Renaissance Wailea fronting this beach is scheduled to be demolished and construction of a new resort property is planned at some point in the future.
