Located in central Maui, Ma'alaea is famous for its beautiful harbor, and is home to Hawaii's largest aquarium, the magnificent Maui Ocean Center. While this tiny community is often overlooked by tourists, it's an integral part of Maui's unique marine life ecosystem, and makes for an exciting day on the ocean.
Top things to do include learning about marine life at Maui Ocean Center, snorkeling, scuba diving, and snuba at the Molokini Crater, whale watching tours departing from Ma'alaea Harbor, surfing with Island Surboard Rentals, and rappeling down waterfalls with Rappel Maui.
Ma'alaea is a year-round vacation destination, but if you're particularly interested in whale watching, note that the whale season starts late November and ends in April.
