Waikiki small group turtle snorkeling & sailingOʻahuFree cancellation

Waikiki small group turtle snorkeling & sailing

Witness the brilliant colors of a sunrise over Diamond Head crater. Ideal for early birds, couples or families who are up at the crack of dawn during their Hawaiian vacation due to time zone changes. As we start out our tour from Alawa’i boat harbor towards Diamond Head alongside of the Waikiki coast, it will be a short boat ride to reach the Turtle Canyon snorkeling site. This spot is known for the large numbers of sea turtles that float above the reef while the reef fish swim around them and clean their shells. When the turtles come up to breath, they can even be seen by our guests relaxing on the boat! After our snorkeling adventure we head towards Diamond head, these early morning hours are the best chance to see the Hawaiian spinner dolphins playing and swimming around the boat.

Maui: Kayak Whale Watch & Turtle Town Snorkel with Free PhotosMauiFree cancellation

Maui: Kayak Whale Watch & Turtle Town Snorkel with Free Photos

This is an intimate, owner-operated expedition led by a guide with over 10+ years of experience on Maui waters. Unlike the large harbor boats with huge crowds, our kayaks allow us to spend time with the whales without the loud motor sound-allowing us to hear the rhythmic breathing of the whales and the mesmerizing whale song that you just can't get on a larger boat. Experiencing these gentle giants at water level is a total game-changer. There is nothing like the experience of being right next to a whale just inches above the waterline. It makes the encounter feel incredibly personal and puts the true scale of these creatures into perspective. This ensures a five-star, intimate journey that you just can't get on larger boats. As we transition to the shoreline to visit a turtle cleaning station you will swim alongside Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles (Honu) and explore the volcanic coral reefs of South Maui. You stay present in the magic; I'll handle the rest.
