Maha'ulepu beach and trail are one of Poipu's hidden treasures. The coastal trail begins at Shipwreck beach and takes one across a variety of terrain, from small sand dunes to sandstone pinnacles and even a sinkhole cave. The trail ends at beautiful Mahaulepu beach. Because there's a lot to explore along the way it typically takes 1-2 hours to reach Mahaulepu beach. The uncrowded beach sometimes offers snorkeling during the winter months (the south shore experiences calm seas during the winter). It's also possible to drive to Mahaulepu beach along a confusing dirt road that begins just past the Hyatt..
