Maui Swap Meet  in Kahului, Saturdays from 7:00a.m.  until 1:00p.m. ~ Fresh food and great souvenirs! 

The Maui Swap Meet on Saturday morning is not free, but the entrance fee is only $0.50 ! It is a wonderful place to find a wide selection of small outdoor vendors. They sell very affordable jewelery and island knick-knacks, as well as having a large produce aisle! There are a variety of different food stands and desserts offered. We recommend going early in the morning rather than later because it gets hot, especially in the summer in the open sun. If you choose to go in the afternoon or late morning be advised, sunglasses are needed!
