Scuba Diving

Scuba diving in Hawaii can be an exciting, wonderful experience. In Maui County, which includes the Islands of Maui, Lanai and Molokai, the diving is plentiful with a lot of variety. Just like anywhere else the local conditions will vary. Generally there is better visibility on boat dives rather than shore dives. However, with shore dives there is more variety. Most (but not all) of the dive boats go to specific areas, sort of a ''known quantity'' for diving. Some of the smaller operations will try to make the experience more memorable, often by being more flexible as to where to dive.

Mountain Biking

View a spectacular sunrise from the summit of the 10,025' Haleakala crater, then coast 38 miles back to sea level on one of our exhilarating bike tours.
