Makena State Park in South Maui has a couple of the island’s bigger beaches (one is aptly named “Big Beach”) and definitely some of the island’s best sunset views. Looking to the west and south, from Makena there are views of Lana’i, Moloka’i, Kaho’olawe, and Molokini.
Depending on the time of year, the sunsets from Makena show between the islands or slightly behind them. Either way, though, the golden hues cast into purple skies are enough to keep us standing in awe.
