Kahului Harbor is on the north coast of the island of Maui on the southern side of Kahului Bay. The harbor is just two miles from Wailuku, Maui’s largest town and the county seat of Maui County.
The harbor’s three piers total over 3,019 linear feet. Pier 1, which handles both cargo and passenger ships, is 1,332 feet long with an alongside depth of 34 feet. Piers 2 and 3 accommodate barge activity.
Primary cargo handled at Kahului Harbor include container and general cargo, automobiles, lumber, bulk cement, petroleum products, liquefied petroleum gas, produce, steel, coal, dry and liquid bulk fertilizer, bulk and raw sugar and molasses. Pier 3, with 500 feet of berthing space, is a roll-on/roll-off facility designed for inter-island and overseas cargo. Pier 3 also berths commercial fishing boats. Adjoining lands were recently acquired for the expansion of the harbor back-up area. Cargo handling and storage space at the harbor totals over 827,000 square feet.
Two breakwaters protect the harbor which has a basin 2,050 feet wide by 2,400 feet long and a depth of 35 feet. The harbor’s entrance is 660 feet wide. Anchorage is limited to outside the harbor and is further restricted by the prevailing northeasterly trade winds.
