Governor Josh Green told CBS News it could take up to 10 days to learn the full death toll.
The number of missing now stands at around 1,300, he said.
He later told a press conference that 25% of the area affected by the fire had been searched for bodies.
Nearly the entire town of Lahaina was destroyed in the fire.
"There is nothing to see except full devastation," Mr Green told CBS, the BBC's US news partner, on Sunday.
