Leave life on the surface behind as you descend into the pelagic realm with our Ocean Experts, where you’ll initiate a lifetime of respect and appreciation for the revered sharks of Hawaiʻi.

Shark Dive Maui is more than a thrilling experience to check off your bucket list — it’s an opportunity to understand the profound connection between the ocean’s top predators and the native people of Hawaiʻi. During this cage-free dive into our 750,000-gallon Open Ocean exhibit, everything you thought you knew about sharks will dissolve and transform into deep respect and an urge to protect.

Reserve your spot today for an intimate experience with over 20 sharks, hundreds of fish, and rays.

Great aquarium! My gf and I had a wondering time. The whale exhibit was pretty cool and they even had a tiger shark

The visit to the Maui Ocean Center was one of the highlights of our trip to Maui! My husband and I had a great time and learned a LOT - it wasn’t just looking at pretty fish. My only notes are you do have to pay to park, it’s both indoors and outdoors so bring sunscreen, and we missed every single presentation in each exhibit because of the time we visited. I didn’t see the timing posted online - maybe the are and I just missed it? Otherwise it would have been great to time our visit around those so we could learn more. But they do have QR codes you can scan to learn more in lieu of the actual employee presentations (which we took advantage of).
