Maui is the second
largest island in the chain that makes up the Hawaiian Islands. It is
also, in geological terms, the most recently created. Even in the
snorkeler’s paradise that is Hawaii, Maui snorkeling stands out. Though
some of Maui is better suited to surfing than to snorkeling, the clear
waters here make for an unforgettable experience. Molokini is widely
regarded as one of the top snorkeling and diving locations in the world
and it is something not to be missed when snorkeling in Maui. Maui
snorkeling doesn’t end with Molokini, however. One of the best aspects
of snorkeling in Maui is that there are a wide variety of companies that
can take visitors on organized trips to some of the best locations,
making it a whole day experience. Turtle Arches is one spot they often
visit for the rich abundance of coral and tropical fish. Maui
snorkeling offers other delights that vary from season to season. Some
of these include dolphin encounters, the possibility of whale spotting
or even a chance to see the rare green sea turtle. The guided tours can
range from an hour or two, to full day excursions and the added benefit
of having a qualified guide to show you some of the hidden secrets in
Maui snorkeling more than off-sets the cost.
