Rainy Day on Maui

I created this image and I release this image ...Image via WikipediaWe have very few rainy days on Maui especially during the summer. As we head into the winter we will see alot more on the east side and a bit more on the south and west side. As an activity concierge many people ask me what they can do on a rainy day.... I have made a list -

  1. Visit the Maui Ocean Center. This aquarium does a great job of introducing you to the fishes of Hawaii. They have some great exhibits on the humpback whales that visit Hawaii’s waters each winter. (Admission fee is required.)
  2. Tour the Alexander & Baldwin Sugar Museum. (Modest admission fee required.)
  3. Learn about Maui’s whaling history at Whalers Village Museum in Kaanapali. (Free)
  4. Shop at the Lahaina Cannery Mall. (Free) or the Maui Mall in Kahului.
  5. Tour the historic Baldwin House in Lahaina. (Currently open daily from 10 – 4. Located at 120 Dickenson Street in Lahaina. Modest admission fee of $3 for adults, $5 for families, and $2 for children is required.)
  6. Admire 100% locally made crafts at the Maui Crafts Guild in lovely Paia. (Free)
  7. Schedule some pampering time at a spa. Maui has an abundance of top rated spas. (Be sure to check out our popular suggestions for maximizing your Hawaii spa treatments.)
  8. Drive through Iao valley and take some hikes the rain is always warm and refreshing.
