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.
