Kahului, Maui

The Kahului Boat Ramp provides easy access to the Pacific Ocean from Kahului Bay on the north shore of Maui. This well-equipped boat launch features a dual-lane ramp and loading dock, making it convenient for launching kayaks, canoes, and small powerboats.

Situated amidst the stunning Hawaiian scenery, the Kahului Boat Ramp offers an ideal entry point for exploring the bay and beyond. The protected waters of the bay can be a great spot for paddlers to leisurely navigate, while those seeking more open-ocean conditions can venture out into the glistening Pacific. Nearby, the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary provides the opportunity to potentially spot these majestic creatures during the winter months.

For boaters, the Kahului Boat Ramp serves the Kahului Harbor, which is primarily used for commercial cargo and cruise ship operations. However, recreational use is permitted, allowing access to the broader coastal and offshore areas around Maui. Paddlers and boaters should be aware of any harbor traffic and use caution when launching and navigating in the vicinity.
