Pacific Whale Foundation Molokini  & Turtle Arches


Pacific Whale Foundation - Molokini & Turtle Arches Snorkel

Double Your Fun Promotion!  If you're booking the Lanai Snorkel & Dolphin Watch and also booking the Molokini & Turtle Arches snorkel call for a combo rate!

Snorkel at the two most popular areas for Maui visitors. Includes all snorkel gear, flotation devices, optical masks and guided reef tour. Also includes a continental breakfast and a BBQ lunch buffet & refreshments.

This tour is offering alcoholic beverages after snorkeling.

No other cruise compares! You'll be among the first to arrive at Molokini, when the snorkeling conditions are at their best and the reef is less crowded. Slide into this dazzling world on our water slides, or enjoy the easy access of our swim-on, swim-off snorkel platform.

Next, head over to Turtle Arches, known for its diversity of fish and coral - and for the many Hawaiian green sea turtles seen here. Join our marine research naturalists on a guided snorkeling tour of this fascinating site. Discover the clever cleaner wrasse, the parrotfish that manufactures sand, and the famous humuhumunukunuku‘apua‘a (Hawaii's state fish).

We often encounter humpback whales in winter or spring, and wild spinner or bottlenose dolphins may approach the boat at any time of year. This snorkel tour is led by experienced marine naturalists who get into the water with you for a guided tour of the reefs.
