This place is only a beautiful 20 minute drive from my house. You sit outside in their very comfy chairs in a huge open grassy area taking in the view of the island/ocean. Great drinks and food. Perfect place to go for food and drinks to watch the sunset. Last call 6:45pm.

Sightseeing
Book a trip to Molokini Crater on a boat. Amazing place to snorkel because it is safe and very clear. Next, the boats take you to Turtle Town to snorkel here as well to see the turtles. I usually use Quicksilver company. Yummy burgers on the grill and a fun water slide on the boat.

Gotta go do a boat snorkel tour to Molokini. They go to two places and do the best barbecue lunch with mai tai and such. Must do the early morning tour otherwise half the time they go to Coral Reef not Molokini which is not nearly the same.

Wonderful snorkelling to see all kinds of colorful fish and maybe a turtle too in a protected bay. Nice to stroll along the path to get views as well.

Spend the Day
Wonderful beaches with easy access and parking, close restaurants, stores, food trucks, and shaved ice.
Most of the beaches in South Kihei are great to hang out and boogieboard (which I have some for loan next to the driveway back steps) or sunbathe at the beach. Walking distance to restaurants. Good snorkeling and beach volleyball.
