The Maui Ocean Center integrates the
intricacies of marine life with the gentle balance of the ocean and features the special flavor of the Hawaiian culture and its age-old link to the sea.
Come along on a discovery journey - an experiential adventure in which you descend from black lava shorelines and white sandy beaches, underwater past colorful corals and unique fish, through lava tubes and sea caves, and deep into the open ocean.
The Maui Ocean Center is located at Ma'alaea Harbor Village overlooking Ma'alaea Small Boat Harbor on the southwest shore of Maui. The site's near-shore location lends a superlative visual setting to the aquarium experience.
The Center's open-air design and lush tropical landscaping, complete with outdoor water displays, enhance the natural beauty of the site.

Experience Dozens of innovative exhibits and habitat galleries welcome you in Hawaii's underwater world.
Meet eye-to-eye curious garden eels, unusual frog fish and the shy octopus. Marvel as a giant stingray glides by, or feel the smooth spines of a bright orange slate pencil urchin in the Touch Pool.

The Whale Discovery Center pays tribute to the wonder, majesty and mystery of the
humpback whale - Hawaii's State Marine Mammal. From the depths of the ocean, you follow a pod of humpback whales halfway around the world as they mate, feed and migrate across the vast Pacific. Descend into the deep blue and gain a spectacular glimpse of the open ocean. Translucent and delicate jellyfish dance in front of you. Awesome sharks, and colorful schools of jack and spotted eagle rays pass above and below as you stroll through an acrylic tunnel right through the middle of an enormous 750,000 gallon tank.
You don't go hungry at Maui Ocean Center - Enjoy the best in Pacific Rim cuisine with spectacular ocean views in the Seascape Ma'alaea Restaurant.
