class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Not only does Maui have the highest number of tiger sharks in the state, the area also sees the most shark attacks, according to local scientists who have tracked and studied Hawaii sharks for decades.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-type-of-sharks-are-in-maui\"><\/span>What type of sharks are in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The 10 Different Sharks in Maui<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-tiger-sharks-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Are tiger sharks in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Tiger sharks have been found to navigate between the main Hawaiian islands, and thus appear to occupy home ranges much larger than had been previously suspected. Tiger sharks are often attracted to stream mouths after heavy rains, when upland fishes and other animals are swept out to sea.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-shark-attacks-common-in-maui\"><\/span>Are shark attacks common in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>So beware of palms and angry dogs. What are the chances of being attacked by a shark? There are usually 2 to 3 attacks around Hawaii per year, but almost always non-fatal. With the millions of people in the ocean around Maui every year, your chances of being attacked are slim to none.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"where-do-most-shark-attacks-happen-in-maui\"><\/span>Where do most shark attacks happen in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Makena Point has the highest number of sharks sightings, followed by Kalama, according to local scientists who have been tracking and documenting shark movement and behavior for decades. Next, is Palauea followed by Olowalu.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-it-safe-to-snorkel-in-maui\"><\/span>Is it safe to snorkel in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Snorkeling in Maui is very safe, though, because of how many beaches on the island offer protected waters. The beautiful sights and fish you&#39;ll see are what make snorkeling in Maui so popular!Jun 13, 2019<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-close-do-sharks-come-to-shore-in-maui\"><\/span>How close do sharks come to shore in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This shark bite took place a great distance from shore\u2014180 feet: Most snorkelers in Maui recreate in the ocean at a distance of between 30 and 45 feet from shore.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-there-any-great-white-sharks-in-maui\"><\/span>Are there any great white sharks in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Great white sharks are not native to the waters of Maui, but there is always a chance that there may be one lurking just offshore in the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean. Don&#39;t let that fact turn you off of scuba diving or snorkeling while vacationing in Mau.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-peeing-in-the-ocean-attract-sharks\"><\/span>Does peeing in the ocean attract sharks?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>No reaction. From a scientific standpoint, Esbaugh says that it&#39;s \u201cdefinitely not true\u201d that sharks are attracted to urine, and he assumes the rumor got started because many animals use scent to track their prey. But he says this doesn&#39;t hold up because humans aren&#39;t the most common meal for sharks.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-it-safe-to-snorkel-at-night-in-maui\"><\/span>Is it safe to snorkel at night in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We asked at a local dive shop in Maui, and they said not to do it. Divers make noise underwater, but snorkelers &#34;look like food.&#34; The Hawaiian Islands, Maui in particular, have had many shark attacks in the day time of swimmers and surfers, especially in recent years. I would not night snorkel there!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-should-i-avoid-in-maui\"><\/span>What should I avoid in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Body Surfing at Big Beach.

In 2019, of the 5,433 Index Crimes reported: \u2022 Property crimes accounted for 91.7&#37; (4,984). Violent crimes accounted for 8.3&#37; (449).

While its sting lacks the powerful neurotoxins that cause severe health risks, it still packs quite the punch, causing intense pain and swelling similar to a wasp sting.

It has a few condos and one hotel. But Kapalua gets more rain and wind than any other part of West or South Maui, so I would not recommend this area. Although some people disagree, in my opinion, this is not the best area to stay in Maui.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"when-should-you-not-go-to-maui\"><\/span>When should you not go to Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>For instance, whale-watching season is mid-December to mid-May, with the peak months being February and March. During whale season, some ocean activities are prohibited, such as jet ski and parasailing operations. So if either of those two Maui activities is on your bucket list, don&#39;t visit during whale season.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-many-days-in-maui-is-enough\"><\/span>How many days in Maui is enough?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If Maui is the only Hawaiian island you&#39;ll be visiting, you&#39;ll want at least 7-10 days to explore the island. That will give you enough time to do some day trips, take a few tours, check out the beaches, and have plenty of time to relax and unwind.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-month-is-best-in-maui\"><\/span>What month is best in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The best times to visit Maui are April through May and September through November. The spring and fall shoulder seasons provide the pleasant weather Hawaii vacationers seek without the high rates and heavy crowds that accompany the summer and winter.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-maui-famous\"><\/span>What is Maui famous?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Maui, known also as \u201cThe Valley Isle,\u201d is the second largest Hawaiian island. The island beloved for its world-famous beaches, the sacred Iao Valley, views of migrating humpback whales (during winter months), farm-to-table cuisine and the magnificent sunrise and sunset from Haleakala.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-side-of-maui-has-the-best-beaches\"><\/span>What side of Maui has the best beaches?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Maui&#39;s leeward side inarguably presents the best beaches on the island\u2014if by \u201cbest\u201d you mean golden sand, perfectly-swimmable waters, outstanding snorkeling opportunities, lulling waves gentle enough for first-time surfers, and sunshine in spades.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"which-side-of-maui-is-the-warmest\"><\/span>Which side of Maui is the warmest?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Leeward West Similar to the South of Maui, most of the leeward side of West Maui is located on lower ground near the coast. This area is warmer, sunnier, and drier than the rest of the island.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-tap-water-safe-to-drink-in-maui\"><\/span>Is tap water safe to drink in Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Water from the tap on Maui is completely safe to drink. All of the federal and state standards for safe drinking water levels have been met, according to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Hawaiian State Department of Health.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-it-get-cold-in-maui-at-night\"><\/span>Does it get cold in Maui at night?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>An evening on Maui is never likely to get cold (unless you&#39;re having dinner on top of Haleakala). But that doesn&#39;t mean it&#39;s as warm as it is during the day. Expect temperatures to chill to around 60\u00b0F as the night sets in. Having a jacket or sweater on hand means you don&#39;t have to cut your evening short.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-long-would-it-take-to-drive-around-maui\"><\/span>How long would it take to drive around Maui?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>About 9 hours<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-maui-worth-the-money\"><\/span>Is Maui worth the money?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Maui is definitely worth a visit.
