Slaughterhouse Beach (Mokuleia Bay)

Slaughterhouse Beach, officially named Mokuleia Bay, is a secluded sandy beach on Maui's northwest coast near Kapalua. It lies directly east of D.T. Fleming Beach and west of Honolua Bay, tucked below sea cliffs along Route 30. The beach forms part of the Honolua-Mokuleia Bay Marine Life Conservation District, making it a protected snorkel area with coral reef and abundant fish. Access requires a short trail down the cliffs; the name derives from a former cattle slaughterhouse that once operated nearby.
