Itinerary
Snorkel the amazing blue waters around Molokini Crater, it's like swimming in an aquarium! (40 mins)
Pu’u Ola’i, also known as Red Hill, is a dome-like cinder cone backing Maui’s well known Little Beach. This is our half-way point and a great spot for a small break after exploring Molokini. Blue Lagoon is a protected cove great for hanging out and drifting before more adventures. Next, we’ll Seafari™ at a Pu’u Ola’i Cove, a shallow area where you’ll see shells galore amidst the crystal clear water. As we swim around Pu’u Ola’i Point, we’re often greeted by a gang of chub fish that call this area home. Then we make our way to The Cove and then to Coral Forest. These spots are filled with a variety coral and fish we don’t see anywhere else! Keep your eyes peeled for turtles, eagle rays and a variety of colorful fish. (30 mins)
As you’d guess from the name, Turtle Town, located along Maui’s south shore near Makena Landing, is known for its large population of Hawaiian green sea turtles, called ‘honu’ in Hawaiian. While the area is accessible from the beach, it’s quite a swim from the shore but our boat brings you right where the turtles hang out. (30 mins)
Along the coastline we find the turtles and we have some secret spots that have large groups of the sea creatures. (30 mins)
