SNORKEL SAIL IN WEST MAUI

Lana'i Coastline and Cliff House
These two snorkel destinations offer different, unique experiences. The Captain will choose the best snorkeling destination for that day.
Cliff House and Kapalua
A hidden gem best reached by boat, "Cliff House" is a bay in Kapalua with a small house perched on a cliff above. This spot offers incredible visibility, vibrant coral, and a variety of reef fish that will captivate you throughout your snorkel experience.
The Lanai Coastline
Lana’i is home to some of Hawaii’s most renowned snorkel and dive spots. On prime days, we’ll explore one of these spectacular sites: Kaunolu, Manele, Fish Rock, Cathedrals, or Kahalepalaoa (Club Lana’i).
Olowalu Reef
Olowalu is known as Maui’s Mother Reef, boasting an impressive 1,000+ acres of tropical reef, and containing corals over 1500 years old. Snorkeling Olowalu truly offers guests some of the best visibility right off the coast of Maui’s West Side.
Underwater Cleaning Station
Referred to locally as Turtle Reef, Olowalu is home to a manta ray and honu (Hawaiian Sea Turtle) “cleaning station”, which provides guests the unique opportunity to watch as friendly tropical fish clean algae from the shells & backs of these majestic creatures.

Description
Maui is known for its stunning beaches, but another world is waiting to be explored beneath the waves. West Maui is a sun-soaked coastline that once served as the capital of the Hawaiian Kingdom and a retreat for Hawaiian royalty. During this 5-hour excursion, we’ll snorkel some of Maui’s top destinations—from *Olowalu (Maui’s “mother reef”) to Kapalua and across the ‘Au‘au Channel toward Lana’i. This half-day snorkel tour departs around 9 am. Once on board the beautiful and sleek catamaran, you and your fellow guests will be treated to a continental breakfast featuring cinnamon rolls, tropical fruit, and an assortment of hot and cold beverages.
Upon reaching the reef, it will be time to don your snorkeling gear and jump in the water! Watch for the amazing tropical fish and turtles that call this reef home. After spending time in the water and working up an appetite, you will be served a gourmet meal. Enjoy a delicious teriyaki chicken lunch as you sip on a cocktail and prepare to sail back to the harbor around 2 pm.
