Which beach is better waikiki or maui?

CORRECTED: Aloha: Maui is not a beach, it is an island, and is known for having some of the most beautiful beaches in HI.

Waikiki is nice; lots to do and see, lots of fun, and beautiful sunsets, but it is, in essence, right in downtown Honolulu. Literally, right across the street are business complexes like you would see in New York or Los Angeles. In fact, we who live on the other islands call Hono L.A. West.
