A Quiet Afternoon

(Makena, HI) – If you would like to pretend for a while that you are some kind of explorer who discovered a spectacular island somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, drop by Makena State Park.



To get there, you pass through Wailea, which features luxury accommodations, fine homes, upscale shops and several high-end golf courses. When you arrive, you find the largest undeveloped white sand beach on Maui.



We spent most of an afternoon there, walking the beach, sitting on some rocks and just staring out at the ocean. As the sun began to set, we found our way back to civilization. But this was a great little stop because for a few moments late in the day, it seemed like we had the world to ourselves for a few stolen moments.
