With a good sense of humor. Very user friendly with clear maps and directions. 10:10 would do it again!!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 910 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $55

Explore Maui Ocean Center’s 60-plus exhibits, live Pacific corals, sharks, turtles, touch pools, and 3D humpback whales.

“The grounds are well kept, the animals are beautiful but it’s a very small place. It took our group with four children less than an hour to go through and that was with stopping and watching the sharks for an extended time. Also children under 5 are not permitted to participate in the whale sphere which all of the children in our group are.not worth the price point in my honest opinion.”
