What To Expect
One of the most unique places you can snorkel on Maui is actually off Maui, on Lanai! Just 8.8 miles across the channel is the Pineapple Isle – Maui’s closest neighbor island. Lanai used to be agricultural land for the world’s largest pineapple plantation. Today, the Quicksilver catamaran’s Lanai snorkeling tour gives you the chance to visit this incredible place.
The nearshore waters of this island are home to sheer cliffs, craggy rocks, and coral reefs full of colorful marine life. A large pod of spinner dolphins lives offshore and spends a considerable amount of time in the channel. Whether you get the chance to see the wide-ranging coral reef of Manele Bay, or Shark Fin Rock, this Lanai snorkeling tour will leave you with lasting marine life memories.
This family-friendly Lanai snorkeling tour is sure to satisfy everyone, from first-timers to those more experienced with the thrilling sport. All snorkel gear, flotation devices, and snorkel instruction is included on Quicksilver. You can rent wetsuits and underwater cameras! There is also an exciting water slide, jump-for-joy from the second decks, and a freshwater shower to rinse off the salt.
