If you prefer to break away from traffic in the Wailea area, you can break off onto the Wailea Beach Path (also known as the Wailea Oceanfront Boardwalk) a beautiful 1.5 mile boardwalk stretching along the sea in the premiere resort area of the island. It’s one of the best running spots on Maui. The path runs between Polo Beach Park and Mokapu Beach Park, alongside no less than five crescent beaches. You can also add by running on the beach, though we note that Wailea Beach area is better for shore running, as the sand in Makena is a little softer. The boardwalk path is easy, yet one of the most beautiful running routes you’ll find on Maui.
Pro tip: Can be crowded, as there are numerous resorts in the area. Best to go early to beat the crowds and before it gets hot.
Add-On: You can continue for another 1.5 miles or so north toward Kamaole Beach Park. It’s a bit of a hodge-podge of sidewalks, trails, and beaches that is OK for running.
