Join a two-hour shore snorkel at South Poipu, led by a certified guide. After check-in, receive a safety briefing and snorkel lesson. Enter the water directly from the beach and spend up to one hour exploring calm reefs, observing tropical fish, sea urchins, and the occasional green sea turtle or monk seal. You’ll learn about Hawaii’s marine ecosystem, local species, and conservation practices as you swim. All gear is provided; flotation available for beginners.
