Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Ulua Beach
Ulua Beach is one of the beaches in the Wailea resort complex development on Maui's south shore. The sandy beach is located between two rocky points. Ulua Beach is a bit more popular than neighboring Mokapu Beach, with which it shares a parking lot. When the surf is up, it is usually a little higher here than at other beaches in this area, attracting many bodyboarders who enjoy the waves. During calm days, the snorkeling and diving here is excellent. There are many colorful corals and fish. Ulua means `adult crevalle fish in the Hawaiian language.

A great beach to take your much-less-experienced buddy. Very easy entry, and great fish life; however, flora is a bit beat up. Not isolated, but not over crowded, and night dives are predictably safe. Do this as a first dive on the island, and you'll be off to a great start.
