History

Kapalua, loosely translated, means "two borders" or “arms embracing the sea” in the Hawai’ian language.

Kapalua’s modern history began in 1836 when Dr. Dwight Baldwin was rewarded a royal grant of 2,675 acres, the lands of the Mahinahina and Kahana ahupua‘a, for farming and grazing.

Between 1889 and 1902, Dr. Dwight Baldwin’s son, Henry, tapped the area's rich agricultural potential, with the help of David Fleming, and planted acres of coffee, taro, aloe and mango.

In 1912, Fleming and Henry Baldwin’s son, Harry, planted the first 20 acres of pineapple fields and over the next three decades, the Honolua Ranch became Honolua Plantation.

In 1932, Maui Pineapple Company was founded and Kapalua Resort was envisioned, along with the enduring legacy of Pu‘u Kukui Preserve, home to some of the rarest endangered flora and fauna in the islands

Kapalua Beaches

Kapalua

Kapalua Bay

Kapalua Bay gained worldwide attention by being ranked “America’s Best Beach” in 2018. This beautiful crescent-shaped, white sand beach is a perfect beach for swimming and snorkeling in the clear, azure waters that are protected by two headlands formed long ago by lava flows into the sea. This beach is also popular for weddings and receptions at Merriman's Kapalua Outdoor Grill.

Kapalua Ironwoods

DT Fleming

Located in front of the Ritz Carlton Kapalua, Fleming Beach was named America's Best Beach in 2003 and is a popular surfing and bodyboarding site, with public restrooms and picnic tables available for use. The beach is named after D.T. Fleming, the man who introduced pineapple to West Maui.

Famous 17th Hole Kapalua Bay Course

Oneloa Bay

Nestled between the Bay Villas and Ironwoods, Oneloa Bay is remarkably uncrowded and peaceful and is a popular spot for advanced surfers and bodyboarders. For those desiring a lovely scenic morning or sunset walk, the Kapalua Coastal Trail runs along the beach’s sand dunes.

Honolua Bay

With fishing strictly prohibited to protect the abundance of marine life, Honolua Bay is an excellent location for snorkeling and attracts top surfers from around the World.
