This is adventure snorkeling at its best! Get access to some of the most amazing reefs and tropical fish. This faster paced trip arrives quickly out to Molokini crater (before the crowds), then on to explore the Maui Coastline. We visit spots where you can see and snorkel with Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles (all snorkel spots are weather permitting). Our morning adventure snorkel tour serves up a tropical breakfast, grilled hot BBQ lunch, and drinks (including beer and wine after snorkeling). All your snorkel gear, floatation and instruction are provided. We also offer SNUBA if you would like to take your adventure to the next level (additional $59 per person). The Maui Magic limits the passenger count to 45 and children under the age of 5 are not recommended.
4. Mystery Maui Escape Room
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 33 reviews
Private rooms only (you won't be paired with strangers!) with original-themed, 5-star-rated games. Family-friendly, plenty free parking available. Located in Wailuku, Maui - about 15 minutes from the Kahului airport. An escape room is a live, indoor physical adventure where players find clues, solve puzzles to open locks and help solve the mystery to escape the room. Great for couples, families and friends to test their teamwork and communication skills.

We did the Ramen room with 2 experienced and 4 new players. Some of the clues were really creative and things we’d never seen before, but most were reasonable enough that the people who’d never done one before could figure them out. The game master kept us on pace, otherwise we definitely would have run of time, but if you are up for the challenge she gave us the option to go until we asked for clues. We figured with newbies we should have her prompt us if we were struggling. Everyone had a great time! The bonus 10min escape game they let us do afterwards was super fun also and a great free bonus. We competed in 2 teams for the best time. Really enjoyable escape room that was cleverly done!

Brought my elderly mom to Maui for her first-ever Hawaiian vacation and we did plenty of restaurants, boat cruises, pool and beach days, etc...but our day at the Maui Tropical Plantation really stood out from the rest! The grounds are lovely and filled with historical pieces from the bygone sugar cane industry, and the tram ride through the groves of banana, coconut, mango, and pineapple really showed a unique side of the island. Everything was wonderful!

7. Iao Valley State Monument
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 2,119 reviews
Reviewed By Toyota1994 - Chicago, United States
Iao Valley State Monument provides lush green scenery not to be missed when visiting Maui. The hike from the parking lot to the lookout is pretty short (less than fifteen minutes) but requires stair climbing (135 steps according to the brochure). It is an awesome view of the valley and the ‘Needle’ from the lookout, well worth the effort. Along the paved path are two worthwhile short side trails, one to a garden of Hawaiian plants and the other closer to the Iao river. The park also has historical significance due to a deadly war fought here. The parking fee of $5 is well worth the convenience of starting the hike from the parking lot.

This is a nice aquarium. The staff are very knowledgeable. We had a great day here. There is a playground for the little ones and a restaurant, which was pretty good.
