Ho'okipa Beach is the windsurfing and kitesurfing capital of the world — on any afternoon with trade winds, dozens of colorful sails dance above massive waves. The clifftop parking lot is an ideal spectator perch. Pair the visit with a stroll through Paia town, the hippest two-block stretch in Maui, full of eclectic shops, galleries, and cafes.
Tip: The windsurfing action is best from noon to sunset. Walk into Paia town for lunch or shave ice afterwards — Mana Foods natural market is great for healthy snacks.
