Maui Beaches: Fleming Beach

D.T. Fleming Beach Park on Maui D.T. Fleming Beach Park on Maui was rated as the best beach in America in 2006 for a good reason. Combine the park facilities with a lot of sand and you have the perfect vacation beach.

With sunbathing, swimming, surfing, and bodyboarding (boogie boarding, Fleming Beach offers many of the amenities minus the crowds of Kaanapali Beach.

But what makes this a great beach for us is all the extras that come with being part of a park - parking lot, easy beach access, restrooms, fresh water shower, picnic tables, barbeque grills, shaded area, grass area, lifeguards, and seaside grill. And we love the ocean view of the nearby island Molokai.
