Sometimes you want to do something a little bit different than the standard fair. Here are activities that do not fit well into other categories. Maui has plenty of things to do.

• Check out shows and exhibitions at the Maui Arts and Cultural Center – Scores of venues year round.
• Maui Scuba Diving – Review descriptions and maps for dozens of Maui scuba diving locations in Maui. Find out why the islands that make up Maui county are world famous for scuba diving.
• Maui Ocean Center – The Maui Ocean Center is host to exotic and mundane samples of the many varieties of sea life found in the Hawaiian Archipelago. It is the perfect place to take the kids or to enjoy alone. The main feature is an under-water tunnel where manta rays and tiger sharks swim above, below and sometimes directly at you. The jelly fish room is also a special treat. The few shops included are tasteful, featuring the work of select Maui Artists.
• Maui Fun Factory’s – There are Fun Factory’s in Kukui Mall in Kihei and in Kaahumanu Mall and Maui Mall in Kahului. The Kaahumanu location is the largest. Fun Factory’s offer video games and carnival type games to win tickets to get prizes. They are especially fun for the youngsters but adults may enjoy competitive driving games, horse racing or some of the games of skill. You can never have to many plastic tiaras or sticky frog props! The Kukui Mall location is not listed on the website but I assure you it is there.
