Small, interesting, self guided, not too pricey ... Worth the time and they have some great old photos and historical items on display. Something for the hubby to do while wife or girlfriend shopping.

My wife enjoyed visiting the Whalers Village shop and I enjoyed the small but interesting museum, which adequately explained the whaling history in Hawaii.

The Whalers Village Museum is extremely interesting, with great exhibits. We attended the lecture at 11 a.m. The lecturer was a wealth of knowledge and quite easy to listen to.

All you need to know about the whaling industry that was once in the Hawian Islands. Whale skeleton hangs above you shows just how big they are! Good place to relax out of the sun. Located in Whalers Village shops at Ka'anapali Beach.

Nice little museum on the third floor. It closed early so keep that in mind. This little place is not a destination stop. I was surprised how small it was...I expected this huge room with whale skeletons. If you get bored...go.....
