Molokini and Turtle Arches Snorkeling Trip from Ma'alaea Harbor

5 h

Om den här aktiviteten

Your adventure begins at Ma'alaea Harbor, where you'll board the Ocean Odyssey. This eco-friendly and smooth-riding catamaran features a galley bar, two bathrooms, a water slide, freshwater shower and snorkel platform for easy entry into the water. The experienced crew will get you professionally fitted with snorkel gear.

As you cruise to Molokini, your ship crew will serve you a tropical style continental breakfast accompanied by freshly brewed Maui coffee and tropical juices. Along the way, Certified Naturalists also offer a complimentary learn-to-snorkel class and educational talks about Hawaii's reefs and fishes. In the winter, whale sightings are an added bonus.

You'll moor at Molokini with plenty of time to explore this remarkable mid-ocean oasis! The wide swim steps and water slides make it easy and fun to get right in and explore. Your ship crew will provide all of your snorkel gear and flotation devices, plus plenty of encouragement and support if you're new to snorkeling.

Next stop is Turtle Arches, a beautiful reef known for its underwater lava arches and abundance of green sea turtles. Enjoy a free guided reef tour led by one of our naturalists, who will point out sights you might miss on your own.

Once you're done snorkeling, you can relax and enjoy a delicious lunch of grilled teriyaki chicken, garden burgers, hot dogs, potato salad, corn and bean salad, and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. Unlimited water, juices and sodas are provided throughout.

Hotel pickup and drop off services are not available.

Good local food for breakfast and lunch, free drink and the snorkeling spots were pretty dope. Didn’t see any turtles myself but many others on my boat including my husband saw them!

Excellent. Crew was great, food was good, boat was comfortable. Only problem is you couldn't really hear what they were saying over the system.

Molokini was great but Turtle Arches was a waste of time. The boat crew, service, and food were very good.

After heading out to Molokini we arrived only to turn back because of poor ocean conditions. This was a major selling point for me and I was disappointed not to see the crater up close. The crew then took us to a spot on the west side for us to snorkel but I found the water visibility not great and the coral and fish average at best. I could tell the crew did what they could to make everyone happy including free drinks, but I just didn’t see what I was looking for after allocating half a day for this trip. Weather plays a huuge factor here, proceed only if you’re okay not seeing what you want.

My wife and I had a great time! We were able to see few green sea turtles, it was so awesome seeing them swimming around us. The lunch that was provided was delicious, chicken teriyaki, bean and pasta salad. Everyone on board was incredible knowledable and helpful. We had a great time listening to Erin out in the water telling us about and showing us the sea life. We were able to see humpback whales on our way back also, we rented a go pro for $40, it was worth it, we were able to get amazing video and photos. Thank you very much to all the crew!

Couldn't get on the boat until posed for a photo with a life saver ring (not allowed to skip it).Also the fee includes a dontation to the Pacific whale foundation, would have been good to know this up front.Lunch was pretty good as the general helpfulness of the crew.The snorkling was ok but now as good as some other Pacific islands like Fiji and Tonga.

The boat was very clean. The crew were very helpful, friendly, attentive, and generally awesome. They push the environment stuff a little extra, but not where it was in your face. They are doing the right thing. Would be good if they could go a little further south for turtles (Makena landing) instead of Wailea where reef is a little more dead (bleached).

My family of seven went on this tour during our stay in Maui and everyone really enjoyed it. I've only been on a handful of snorkeling tours and this is one of the best so far. It's hosted by a conservation group called the Pacific Whale Foundation and all the money paid for the tour is given back to help protect and save the reefs. Also, all of the staff on the tour are college level marine biologists or have marine studies backgrounds so during the boat rides to and from the snorkeling spots there are two they host talks and information groups. You can learn about what you are seeing while enjoying the amazing views of Maui from the decks of the boat. The tour starts early but it's worth it for the clear waters. They feed you a small breakfast banana bread, pineapple and melons, yogurt and beverages as you travel to Molokini crater. After that they take you to Turtle Arches to see the sea turtles. While there they host a guided snorkel reef tour which was informative and fun. Once you are back on board the boat a buffet lunch is served, everyone gets a plate and then there are seconds for what is left. There was definitely enough food and you can enjoy the views as you travel back to the Pacific Wale Foundation docks. They provide: reef safe sunscreen, snorkels and flippers, noodles/flotation devices, food, beverages and water. They also have buyout rash guards for 10 which are worth it for the sun protection and help floating. I found with the rash guard I didn't need the noodle and the sun protection is worth it especially if you burn easily. Definitely one of the better snorkel trips I've been on and felt nice to help protect the gorgeous reefs and fish you are enjoying.

Excellent snorkelling, seen many beautiful fish, calm waters. We missed out on turtle arches as it was too rough, our guides made up for it with some whale watching and a cruise around the back of Molokini. Guides are knowedglable, love that this tour benefits non-for profit. Great food and drinks.
