Maui
★★★★☆
(233)
The island of Maui offers excellent diving opportunities, mostly on the north and western side of the island where the water is calmer. Maui’s neighbors, Lanai and Molokai also offer pristine, excellent diving.
Maui pretty much has it all from turtles and tons of reef fish to manta and eagle rays, eels galore, and sharks.
