It may be hard to believe, but Maui was once heavily dependent on whaling and that is evident at the Whalers Village Museum. You can learn an abundance about the whales themselves as well as about the lives of whalers. The village where the museum is located also offers fun rainy-day activities like lei making and hula lessons.
