All Reviews for Maui Ocean Center

It's an aquarium in Maui where you can only see small and medium fish. Despite the high admission fee, there are few exhibits that are particularly impressive or captivating. If the price were a bit lower and parking were free, I think it would be a good place to learn about Maui's fish.

マウイにいる小魚、中魚を見るだけの水族館。
入場料が高い割に、感動する特別魅力的な展示が少ない。
もう少し値段が安く駐車場も無料なら、マウイの魚を知るには良いと思う。

I didn’t think the under water tunnel to be the same as the advertised.
Everything else was very informative

Purchasing tickets was very cumbersome. Why do we need a user name and password for something I may never use again.

The aquarium is beautifully designed and very well maintained, with exhibits that showcase Hawaii’s unique marine life! Our family had a grand day here.

Compared to the scale of various aquariums in Japan recently, it was quite compact. If you are proficient in English, you might be able to read the explanatory texts, but having a Japanese audio tour or QR codes for Japanese explanations could make it more enjoyable.

最近の日本に有るあちこちの水族館の規模に比べると、かなりコンパクトでした。
英語に堪能であれば解説文も読めるでしょうが、日本語オーディオツアーとかQRコードで日本語解説とかが有れば楽しいかも？

I had an absolutely wonderful visit at the aquarium! It is beautiful, well kept up, and affordable for all! My only problem was with the parking, to me it was confusing! I would definitely go back, beautiful!

We loved the place , everything is so interested and educational, our only complaint is parking is a little expensive…

Really enjoyed the fish and the fish tunnel, corals were awesome. Learning new things about fish I thought I knew about was amazing. The little alcoves you turned into was interesting.

Beautiful place. Very educational and interesting experience I very much enjoyed it. Price to get in was a little high but for me the whale experience made up for it

We really enjoyed our visit to Maui Ocean Center. The displays were very educational- we learned so mych about Hawaii’s marine eco system. And the fish and aquatic tanks were AMAZING! We will definitely return on our next trip!

Beautiful setting for a Maui experience! A chance to see all of those native Hawaiian creatures you might have not seen on a snorkeling adventure. Nicely positioned in the Maalaea Harbor which includes shopping and dining experiences and is the departure point of many of Maui's tours.

The aquarium is nice,but I had to wait 15 minutes for a Supervisor came to verify my digital ticket.The perdon at the desk couldn't find it.

There was so much to do and see in one day, our kiddo loved this day on our trip.

We had a late flight our last day in Maui so we wanted something fun and easy to do after we checked out of our condo. The MauI Ocean Center was a really fun time and educational to boot. There is a mix of outdoor and indoor spaces, an interactive show on feeding the sharks and rays, and plenty of exhibits that allow you up close views of the fish and turtles we saw while snorkeling.

The 3d video on whales was well done and the crowds were light enough to allow us good access to all the different viewing areas.

Awesome exhibits and great presentations on sharks and coral reef fish! Interactive tide pools for all ages. Left appreciating ocean life more!

We enjoyed it immensely. We got to see things not available in the natural habitat. We found the demonstrations to be very good and informative. The seven day pass was a terrific value and we used it 3 times.

The tour was amazing and very informative!! Probably the best $15 we spent on maui!

Pleasant and informative venue. I went with a lifelong friend of mine and we enjoyed every moment of it. All of the displays were well thought out and enjoyable. I bought the CD so I could review it when I get home and share it with my nine-year-old grandson.

Wonderful way to spend a few hours; the displays & sea life are awesome, the grounds beautifully maintained. Perfect for families; the young and the older will be delighted.

We had the best time. So much to see and do.
First time visiting the Ocean center, we did lunch as well. Food was excellent

Not only visually great but also quite informative. Would be a great time for families.

The display/aquarium was lovely and entertaining. The staff in the aquarium was knowledgeable and friendly. However, we went to the Seascape restaurant and it took about 5 minutes for the server to acknowledge us, with the acknowledgement being cold and mediocre. We then noticed that they quickly greeted and offered service to a caucasian family as soon as they walked in the door. After waiting another few minutes for the server to come back and take our order, we decided to eat elsewhere. Never been treated like that at a facility before. Terrible impression of the Seascape restaurant, which ultimately spilled into the mood of the aquarium trip. Shame on those servers for making anyone feel like that... Will never return when we visit Maui again.

Great place to learn about Sea Live detailed information great exbit very clean place.

The center had great sea life tanks. We saw sharks, turtles and all the types of fish you see in the ocean around the island. the staff was very informative and knowledgeable.

I purchased in advance despite the lack of discounts because I was supposed to receive a souvenir coupon and a ceramic mug coupon. However, I found out that I needed to spend over $35 on souvenirs to qualify.

There was a priority entrance lane for advance purchasers at the entrance, but it wasn't functioning, and the list verification took a long time. I don't think there are any benefits to purchasing in advance.

　記念品クーポン・セラミックマグクーポンを貰えるようので、ディスカウントがないにもかかわらず事前購入しましたが、土産物を３５ドル以上買わないと対象外とのこと。
　入口の掲示には事前購入者の優先入場レーンがありましたが機能しておらず、むしろリスト照合で時間がかかるので、事前購入するメリットはないと思います。

I didn't know what to expect before I got there, but they surprised me. The facility was very clean and organized, and the exhibitions were great. I learned so much about Hawaii's marine life, and they had a lot of unique species that only available in Hawaii.

I was impressed by the shark exhibition. I could be there all day watching these magnificent creatures. A perfect for everyone who is interested in the marine life. I went to the snorkel tour the next day, and I got to see some of the fish I saw at the Maui Ocean Center so it was very educational.

Very enjoyable day at Maui Ocean center. Always good to see marine life.

I expected it to be bigger & have more to it but the experience was still really nice & you get to see some really interesting species along with a hammerhead shark, turtles & the tunnel where they fish, stingrays & sharks swim all around you.

The Hawaiian Aquarium was cool, admission was cheap and we got to see a lot for what we paid. You can stay as long as you like but we saw everything in about two hours and took our time. We recommend this especially if you have children.

Our kids loved this ocean center, after a few days of water activities (snorkeling and surf lessons), it was great seeing them learn about some of the ocean habitats that make Maui such a special place to visit. Very informative and such a fun day.

I have actually visited the Maui Ocean Center a few times and i enjoy it everytime.
