Maui: Molokini Half-Day Snorkeling Tour From Maalaea Harbor
From Maalaea Harbor, board a 55-foot, glass-bottom catamaran for a half-day Molokini snorkeling tour. During the cruise to Molokini Crater, take in the views of Haleakala volcano, and try to identify the four other islands that are scattered across the horizon. Along the way, listen to commentary from an on-board naturalist who serves as your guide. Upon arrival at Molokini Crater, dive into the tropical waters, which teem with thousands of fish, and cruise over one of Hawaii’s healthiest coral reefs. With its deep sand channels, shallows sections, and wealth of colorful marine life, Molokini Crater is an exceptional outing for experts and first-timers alike. If you'd like to see the marine life without getting wet, peer through glass panels on the bottom of the boat, where children and families can watch schools of fish. Once you've finished snorkeling in Molokini Crater, enjoy a delicious, savory lunch (vegan and gluten-free options available). When everyone is done snorkeling, enjoy the on-board bar before cruising back to the harbor.
