$\"\"$ Makena Beach (Big Beach)
\n<\/strong>Whether you take an excursion or stay on land, whale watching in Maui December to April is an incredible lifetime experience and a must while vacationing in Hawaii. The closest you can get to the humpback whales that swim from Alaska to Maui is 100 yards away. Pack a picnic at this beach in Wailea and sit back for a stunning view of the whales, possibly dolphins and the islands of Molokini and Kahoolawe.<\/p>\n

McGregor Point Lookout (Papawai Point)<\/strong>
\nLocated near Ma\u2019alaea, this wildly adventurous spot includes a beckoning lighthouse and jagged coastline. McGregor Point is located off Honoapiilani Highway (Highway 30), just past Mile Marker #8. Winding paths, coral reefs and deep blue waters mark the setting as you watch whales, optimally at dawn or dusk.<\/p>\n

D.T. Fleming Beach Park<\/strong>
\nThis popular West Maui beach in the Kapalua area is known for surfing. It has all the facilities you\u2019ll need to enjoy a day at the beach, so plan on a barbecue, watch the waters and spot the humpback whales. D.T. Fleming Beach Park is located at the Ritz Carlton resort area and is a great family beach surrounded by ironwood trees.<\/p>\n

Pohaku (S-Turns) Park<\/strong>
\nThis park in West Maui is a great local hangout located at mile marker #27. In addition to seeing whales, you\u2019ll see Lanai and Molokai in the distance. Picnics and sunsets are what S-Turns is for and early morning is a good time for whale watching, particularly for an abundance of whales.<\/p>\n
