    Tip I just learned that people who snorkel the first day are dying because of bends from airplane ride. So wait at least one day to snorkel.

    Not sure of the name, but the beach located behind the Azeka shopping center. There's a beach access off Ululani St. I discovered it on a solo day . Nobody there, one shade tree, calm waters and turtles! It was so peaceful! There was only one other lady, doing the same thing I was, and some dude running up and down the beach. No kids, no twenty something, rowdy beach goers. It was perfect!

    I've been going to Maui since I was a baby and can confirm that DT Fleming has great body surfing. A must if you love the waves!
    Also really appreciate you guys talking about reef safe sunscreen and ways to protect the reefs. I have to admit that the coral isn't what it used to be (I sound so old) when I was there as a kid 30 years ago.

    Aloha Jordan, Erica, and Henry, and to your fur baby. And big OH WOW.... I saw my vacation house on the Keawakapu Beach section of your vlog. I was so excited to see that. All the beaches on Maui are nice. I would have to agree you guys on the rankings of the beaches especially top 2 because its a coin toss between Napili Bay
    and Kapalua Bay. I will be in Maui tomorrow to celebrate Thanksgiving at my vacation house with my fiance and her parents. I really enjoy your vlog and news letters. I will be having some family and friends going to stay at my vacation house for Christmas vacation as well and have shared your YT Channel and itineraries on your website. Also glad to see Erica wearing her signature cap with the D on it. I kind of dub that as her signature cap cause I notice she wears it a lot on other video. One day I hope to run into you guys while I'm vacationing at my house there. Breakfast, lunch, or dinner on me for your family if I do. Have a wonderful Happy Thanksgiving.

    Great video and information as always. Love watching you, you do a great job. Only one thing I’d like to draw your attention to… I wish you would convey that big beach in Makenna can have a very bad Shorebreak and many people have been injured there. Residents referred to it as “broke neck beach”. Tourists popping in for a week don’t often realize it or the power of the ocean.

    I live there for a while Andrew most beaches you're showing and one thing I'm noticing that wasn't there and I was there, the people we're so many times I went to the beach and I was just nobody there especially like the cam 1 2 and 3 they were really local beaches like if they had something happening you would get crowds but normally throughout the week they're very few people down on the beach maybe more in the Parks connected to the beach or on the beach but not down on the sand are in the water. The 100 beats you showed I believe if I'm right that one hotels will take their guests to and drop them off and back when I was there they even had umbrellas beach chairs that hotel guests could get access to anyone could go to the beach but to get access to those amenities you had to be staying at the hotels.
