Maui Magic: Not Your Average Molokini Snorkel Tour

Snorkel Cruise | 5 hour snorkel | 7:00am – 12:00pm daily (6:30 am Check-in)

Skip the slow tours — this is snorkeling for thrill-seekers! Join us aboard the Maui Magic for a high-energy adventure built for ocean lovers who want more than the usual. This isn’t your average Molokini snorkel trip — we’ll get you to the reef fast and ahead of the crowds, so you can dive into crystal-clear waters before most boats even arrive.

But the adventure doesn’t stop there. After exploring the world-famous Molokini Crater, our captain will take you to a second snorkel site where you’ll have the chance to spot Hawaiian green sea turtles in their natural habitat.
