Maui Ocean Center, The Aquarium of Hawaii

A Low-Key Aquarium Perfect for Toddlers

This compact aquarium, located a short drive from Maui's resort areas Wailea and Lahaina, offers families a great two-hour excursion. Indoors, toddlers will appreciate the numerous jelly fish, green sea turtles, and riot of tropical fish and living corals. Older kids will appreciate the 54-foot acrylic tunnel, where rays and sharks swim above as you stroll through. There's a small tide pool where visitors can touch the usual array of anemones and starfish.
