The island of Maui is home to a multitude of more amazing snorkeling locations to explore; interesting reef formations and lava fingers boast remarkable ocean wildlife. Surrounding the Valley Isle, we have a host of tropical fish species, Maui marine life varieties, and colorful reef configurations surrounded by some of the clearest tropical waters you have ever seen. Snorkeling in Maui is most definitely a world-class experience. You will surely enjoy observing the behaviors of tri-colored Moorish idols, rainbow and countless other varieties of butterflyfish, ornate angelfish, saddle wrasse, triggerfish, and more marine beauties while exploring your Maui vacation underway.

One of the most amazing fish is the flame angelfish which is a brilliant orange (glowing) fish with electric blue fin tips. Maui Snorkeling is an opportunity to explore the exquisite beauty of Maui’s underwater life.

Our expert and attentive staff is eager to share all of the beautiful aspects of snorkeling in Maui, with safety and service at the forefront of the experience. Snorkelers will experience opportunities to see a vibrant coral reef-laden sea floor, waters that reflect shades of bright blue and turquoise and some of the most beautiful Pacific marine life thriving in a natural environment.

Molokini snorkeling is snorkeling at its very best! There are significant reasons why Molokini snorkeling is so special. The conditions of the water around Molokini are unmatched and provide excellent water clarity and visibility most often around 150 feet. Snorkeling through the coral reef at Molokini is a Maui snorkeling experience for a lifetime. In addition to Molokini, there are other wonderful snorkel destinations with an abundance of striking marine animals and beautiful coral reef.

Exceptional Maui snorkeling is not limited to Molokini. While Molokini is certainly at the top of the list, another favorite snorkel location is Turtle Town. Here, our guests have a chance to swim with the fantastic Hawaiian green sea turtles. In Turtle Town, the local turtles are used to the frequent human visitor—they enjoy the experience as much as our guests! The friendly turtles are playful and swim close allowing for perfect snorkeling photo opportunities.

Fantasy Reef at Olowalu and Coral Gardens are two other excellent Maui snorkeling destinations. Separated by narrow channels and blue-tinted sandy bottomed ocean floors, both of these Maui snorkeling sites offer additional chances to explore Maui’s marine life. Guests will frequently see Hawaiian green sea turtles napping, and reef systems that are full of schools of fish, and brightly colored corals among lava shelves and overhangs. Tropical fish species seen will include jack patrol, yellow and silver striped goatfish and red squirrel fish.
