MAUI Diving
Some of our favorite dive/snorkeling sites on Maui (some of which can be better than Molokini). (Italics very near or at Ka'anapali. Listed north to south)
West Maui Sites:
Honolua Bay (marine reserve)
Mokule'ia Beach (marine reserve) (a.k.a. Slaughterhouse Beach)
Kapalua Bay
North Beach (Diamond Ka'anapali Beach Resort) - An interesting (LONG) dive is to enter at Diamond and exit at Westin
Kahekili Beach (Old Airport- Westin Vacation Resort)
Black Rock (Sheraton)
South Maui Sites:
Keawakapu Beach (south end) - Morning
Ulua Beach - Morning
Wailea Beach (Four Seasons/Grand Wailea) - Morning
Polo Beach - Morning
Five Caves/Makena Landing
Maluaka (Maui Prince) - Morning
Ahihi Cove (marine reserve)
Nothing personal, but as for mile 14, we'd have to go with the Maui Revealed authors that say "14 mile marker on hwy 30 is ridiculously overrated" unless you are offshore on a boat. It does keep the better sites less crowded though.
A good descriptions of the sites are here:
