About Sea Maui - West Maui Half Day Snorkel Adventure
Snorkel West Maui with Sea Maui on a half-day ocean adventure featuring reef snorkeling, snorkel gear, coastal views and a relaxed catamaran cruise.
Morning light, ocean breezes and the blue waters off West Maui set the scene for this half-day snorkel sail aboard Sea Maui. Departing directly from Ka'anapali Beach in front of Whalers Village, the catamaran follows the coastline while breakfast and coffee are served on board. Along the way, watch for Hawaiian spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins and green sea turtles. During the winter months from December through April, humpback whales may also appear.
The captain will choose the best snorkel destination for the day based on current ocean conditions. Possible sites include Honolua Bay, Cliff House, Oluwalu, Mala Wharf, Makulei'a Bay and Kapalua Bay. Once in the water, explore clear reef areas filled with colorful tropical fish, green sea turtles and vibrant coral.
After snorkeling, return to the catamaran for a delicious lunch prepared by Cafe Jai. Premium beers, handcrafted cocktails and other beverages are available during the sail back to Ka'anapali Beach.
