Sharks in the spotlight at Maui Ocean Center

There’s still a little time to catch Shark-tacular at the Maui Ocean Center, which is underway for the month of July. Guests can dive in and separate fact from fiction about sharks, one of the ocean’s most amazing yet often misunderstood marine creatures. The centre has exciting shark-themed activities in store, designed to reveal truths and dispel myths about the apex predators. Daily presentations have fascinating shark facts and a Shark Tour package adds an Ocean Naturalist guide to the experience. Guests go behind-the-scenes of the Deep Reef Exhibit, home to blacktip reef sharks, and participate in a supervised feed of sharks, surgeonfish and other Deef Reef animals. Cost of the tour is US$15 p.p. plus admission, and includes a lunch or snack option from the Reef Cafe. (http://www.mauioceancenter.com)
