Water in Maui takes multiple forms, from mist to ocean swells.  Maui has fine freshwater waterfalls and pools, but here we're focussing (so to speak) on the ocean as seen from shore, from shore-line froth to rolling walls of green water.  The ocean's constant motion can entertain and mesmerize. It can also threaten. 

Endlessly entertaining with their variety, riffing on shore-side themes, waves and wavelets roll up the beach and against the shore, sometimes frothing like egg whites and sometimes spreading crystalline, like glass, over sand and the shadows cast as the water refracts sunlight.

and create back-lit spikes of spray when they strike rock facets they can't roll over.  EF4A2135 EF4A2168

The Pacific's big swells carry vast volumes of water surging with kinetic energy. At its most primal, when its waves begin to crest and break, the ocean is vivid green.

Even when they are close to an observer, the waves can be transfused with enticingly vibrant green. EF4A4028 EF4A4734
