In 1998, Coral World International officially launched Maui Ocean Center, which is considered one of the premier aquarium centers in Hawaii.

Fondly known as the Hawaiian Aquarium, the Maui Ocean Center boasts of the state?s biggest collection of live coral displays as well as a sizeable collection of green sea turtles, which are considered one of Hawaii?s greatest natural treasures.

At the Maui Ocean Center, you?ll also be able to enjoy close encounters with fascinating marine creatures such as stingrays and sharks. The place, however, also offers opportunities to learn more about the state?s local history and culture.

For souvenirs, you can drop by at the Maui Ocean Center Store, where you can purchase island-inspired art and jewelry. Foreign visitors may hire guides who are fluent in Japanese and Spanish.
