He says lifeguards treated the woman before she was taken to the hospital.
The woman says a shark bit her about 40 yards offshore from Kamaole Beach Park. Authorities have not yet confirmed whether the bite came from a shark or another sea creature.
An official has gone to the hospital to interview the victim.
The woman's name and condition were immediately available. Maui County posted shark-warning signs along the beach.
