Since we can't dive for 24 hours after diving, we had a whole day to do whatever we wanted that didn't involve diving or going above 4000 feet. We decided to check out the Maui Ocean Center and the Ioa Valley.

The Maui Ocean Center was a fairly small aquarium, at least compared to the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. What it lacks in size it certainly makes up for in quality! They have exhibits with local fish, live coral, MANY sharks, Spotted Eagle Ray, etc. They also have a large educational exhibit about Whales, but that was obviously tailored to small children.
