Introduction

Hāna Red Sand Beach is located in Maui, Hawaii, specifically in the southern part of Hāna Bay on the far side of the Ka'uiki Head. This beach is relatively narrow and secluded, making it an ideal spot for people to enjoy nude sunbathing. When overlooking Hāna Red Sand Beach from a higher vantage point, you will see a magical world of rust-colored sand. This color is due to the high content of iron oxide in the sand - the sand of the red sand beach is eroded from an inland volcanic cinder cone. With every powerful wave brought by the Pacific Ocean, the rust-colored sand takes on a richer reddish-brown hue under the influence of seawater.
