Brown Water Advisory: Maliko to Waihe‘e and Honolua to Honokōwai

Posted on November 5, 2021

Updated: October 1, 2022

Maui Now. Brown Water Advisory.

A Brown Water Advisory has been issued for the North Shore of Maui from Maliko to Waiheʻe, and West Maui from Honolua to Honokōwai.

The state Department of Health, Clean Water Branch reports that high surf has resulted in coastal waters reaching into foliage and other areas above the normal high-water mark, including roadways.

According to the advisory, the public is advised to stay out of coastal waters that appear brown “due to possible runoff containing pesticides and other chemicals, animal fecal matter, dead animals, pathogens, and debris that might be in the water.”

Not all coastal areas may be impacted by runoff, however, if the water is brown the public is advised to stay out.
