Itinerary
Start your day on the water aboard the Quicksilver, a spacious double decker catamaran designed for comfort and fun. This 4-hour morning snorkel cruise takes you to Coral Gardens, one of Maui’s most popular reef destinations known for clear water and vibrant marine life.
Mornings are the best time to be on the water in Maui, with typically calmer seas and lighter tradewinds—creating smoother cruising and better snorkeling visibility.
Snorkel clear Hawaiian waters and explore reefs filled with tropical fish, with frequent sightings of Hawaiian green sea turtles. The crew provides snorkel gear, flotation devices, and instruction for all experience levels.
The Quicksilver offers shaded seating, open-air decks, and ocean views. For added fun, race down the waterslide or take the “leap of faith” from the second-deck jumping platform.
After snorkeling, enjoy a casual onboard lunch featuring hot dogs along with refreshing beverages.
Actual snorkel locations are weather dependent and selected daily based on ocean conditions, swells, and years of experience in Maui’s waters.
