Offered to children 5 to 12 years of age, this year-round program takes kids on exciting outdoor adventures and allows them to experience memorable Hawaiian activities, including arts & crafts, lei making and hula lessons. The program is offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.

Mondays, kids board a trolley and take a ride to the Maui Ocean Center where they learn about Hawaii's marine life. Wednesdays, the keiki (children) enjoy a fun-filled day of Hawaiian arts & crafts, such as making Hawaiian friendship bracelets from raffia and creating sand art. Fridays, kids can look forward to an unforgettable cruise on the "Reefdancer," a glass bottom submarine boat.

"Kaanapali Kids is more than a child-caring service," said Mahealani Tabuya, supervisor of recreation at the resort. "Children take part in culturally inspired programs that teach them the value of the Islands and leave them with lasting memories."

For $45 per child per day, parents give their children the opportunity to experience the splendor of the Islands and the Hawaiian culture. Lunch and transportation are included in the fee. Reservations should be made by 7 p.m. the night before due to limited space availability.

Adding to the fun at the Maui Marriott, the new 3.5-acre "super pool" includes a waterslide and sandy beach with shipwreck playground.

Located just steps away from the famed Kaanapali Beach, the Maui Marriott also features exciting outdoor activities for families, including snorkeling and scuba diving, as well as ocean-coastline kayaking tours.
