Some of Maui’s top attractions are: Maalaea Harbor - 6 miles - Many boats leave from Maalaea on snorkeling trips, deep sea fishing, scuba diving, whale watching (in season), sunset cruises, and more. It is much faster to leave from Maalaea Harbor than Lahaina Harbor when taking trips to Molokini Crater and Turtle Town. Other attractions include Maui Ocean Center, Haleakala Volcano, Shops at Wailea, Iao Valley, Wailea Golf Club, King Kamehameha Golf Club, Maui Tropical Plantation, and the Whale Sanctuary. The town of Kihei is a quant, laid-back beach town boasting some of Maui’s most pristine stretches of white sand and turquoise waters. South Maui is fun for couples and families alike.

There are several shopping areas with familiar grocery stores such as Safeway and others with local markets like Hawaiian Moons Natural Foods. Maui’s south side offers calmer ocean conditions than the North Shore making it great for swimming, boogie boarding, stand up paddle boarding, snorkeling, scuba diving, sailing, tide pooling, surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing, and whale watching (in season).
