Mala Wharf

Mala Wharf at the north end of Lahaina is arguably the best shore dive on Maui. The collapsed pier, destroyed by Hurricane Iniki in 1992, has created an extensive artificial reef teeming with marine life. Multiple turtle cleaning stations and resting areas make green sea turtle encounters virtually guaranteed. White tip reef sharks are common residents, and the site is renowned for its nudibranch diversity. The combination of easy access, abundant marine life, and interesting underwater structure makes this a must-dive destination.
