Charley Young Beach Sunsets are absolutely sublime. I have been to the state of Hawaii about a half dozen times and Charley Young Beach in Kihei Maui is my favourite spot to stay for several reasons; beaches, snorkeling, local vibe, photographic opportunity and more. While Charley Young and Kamaole Beach Park I (and II and III) are super for families with young children, with a little bit of exploration can offer a stunning foreground for those amazing Maui sunsets.
If you are staying in Kihei, there are several wonderful viewpoints that you can enjoy an amazing Maui Sunset. For inspiration, I have several examples in my Photo Galleries page or you can see on composition from Kama’ole Beach Park here.
