Anyone snorkel Black Rock Beach? - any good? - also Molakini Crater?

I'm in Kaanapali - How about the Public Aquarium - worth seeing?

Thanks

The aquarium is small but one of the best around. Yes, do it. I bought a week's pass when I was there and visited often. I recommend.

Molokini - if you have to ask that suggests you haven't been there yet. The answer is a resounding YES. The water clarity off this island is 100 times that of anything accessible by shore.

Black Rock beach - dunno, maybe someone else can chime in on that one. Generally speaking though it's hard to go wrong at any of the snorkel spots, unless you have a bad day and the water is murky.

If you don't have this book - http://www.hawaiirevealed.com/books-apps/maui-revealed - look for it, it will make a difference for your remaining days on the island.

Enjoy your time there! I'm jealous.. (although I guess I shouldn't be, we were on the Big Island a month ago. I'd rather still be there though than where I am currently, I'll just say that...)
