I don't have kids, but my friend does, and they really liked snorkeling there. I can't remember the official name of the beach, but if you ask around about the beach near that mall, you should be able to get directions. A really popular snorkeling spot was Black Rock, on the Kanaapali stretch of beach. It's crowded, though, and I didn't think the fish were all that exciting. But, it's a calm place to snorkel, and may be a good place to "get your feet wet." There are also spots to stop and swim on the road to Hana -- beautiful bays -- but I don't know how good the snorkeling is. We also drove along the coast for part of an afternoon, getting out at the look out points and watching the surfers! That's another way to find the "best thing to do in Maui" -- just let the wind, sun, and sand direct you :-) And, talk to your fellow travelers. Finding out what they did while they were there is a great way to discover the hidden treasures in Maui. Aloha!! By the way, I'm going to Hawaii on Monday (the day after tomorrow), and can't WAIT!!!!

We are a fairly adventurous and active family. This will be the kids' first time snorkelling (they have been practising in the bathtub and at the pool). I would like to know of some great (not so touristy) places where the kids do not have to go too deep but can still try out snorkelling and see lots of great fish. If you have any tips let me know. we do plan to do a snorkel tour to Molokini but would like to also find some cool places on our own. Thanks! Travelling to Maui in March with our two kids (6 and 8).
