Maalaea Small Boat Harbor

Thursday, July 26, 2012

With only 89 slips and so many good reasons to take people out on the water, this active little harbor needs to be expanded. There was a plan to do so, but surfers argued that would have destroyed their surf breaks. In fact, the surf here is world-renowned. The elusive spot to the left of the harbor called "freight train" rarely breaks, but when it does, it's said to be the fastest anywhere.
