Comments We did one dive with Ed Robinson at Molokini, which was excellent as always. For the rest of the trip, our group decided to just rent tanks from Maui Dreams Dive Co. in Kihei and dive the beaches. We fouind the beach dives great, turtles on every dive, some approached us rather than the other way around. We found several frogfish, lots of eels ( this is Hawaii after all), and some interesting lava formations. Landside, The Shores of Maui is a quiet condo, walking distasnce from numerous stores and restaurants and it has a pool and BBQ area which makes it nice for large groups and families. Restaurants are the usual Maui expensive, but the food is good and you can cook in a few nights to save a buck. Maui beach diving is the best, if you go, don't miss it. I think it even has Bonaire beat.
