Kapalua Bay is a pristine golden stretch along the west coast of Maui with a spectacular view of Molokai and Lanai. It is protected in a natural lava cove. Kapalua Bay has been voted the "Best Beach in the World" by the readers of Conde Nast Magazine, "America's #1 Beach" on the very first annual list of Dr. Beach's Top 20 Beaches in America, and the "Best Beach in America" by The Travel Channel, among other honors.

Kapalua Beach was previously known as Fleming Beach, but was renamed when the Kapalua resort was built. Another site about a mile to the north was then renamed "Fleming Beach," ostensibly to divert tourists who had heard of the beautiful beach.
