This about 5-hour snorkeling trip from Ma'alaea Harbor visits two prime spots on Maui. The tour begins with snorkeling at Molokini Crater, a crescent-shaped volcanic islet located in the ʻAlalākeiki Channel between Maui and Kahoʻolawe. The crater’s clear waters host over 250 fish species. Afterward, the boat moves to Turtle Arches, a reef known for its underwater lava arches and green sea turtles. All snorkeling gear is provided, including flotation devices and optical masks for those who wear glasses. The trip includes a learn-to-snorkel class and a fish identification session guided by the crew. Boarding and entering the water are made easier by wide swim steps and a water slide. A continental breakfast with banana bread, pastries, and fresh island fruit is served before snorkeling, followed by a BBQ lunch featuring teriyaki chicken breasts, hot dogs, garden burgers, potato salad, corn and bean salad, and chocolate chip cookies. Refreshments such as sodas, tropical juices, and filtered water are available throughout the trip. This wildlife-focused tour is operated by PacWhale Eco-Adventures, which draws on over 40 years of marine research and sustainable ecotourism. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not offered, and gratuities and souvenir photos are not included in the price.
