Snorkel reefs near Lanai or West Maui, spot marine life, and enjoy island meals and an open bar aboard a Lahaina catamaran sail.
About this tour
Set sail from Lahaina for a day of reef snorkeling, coastal scenery, and open-ocean views aboard a premium Gold Coast catamaran. This Lahaina snorkel sail to Lanai pairs time in the water with a relaxed cruise and thoughtful onboard comforts.
The crew chooses the day’s snorkel destination according to weather, tides, and ocean conditions, exploring reefs near Lanai or the West Maui coastline. Along the way, take in Lanai’s dramatic sea cliffs and Puʻu Pehe, also known as Sweetheart Rock, and keep watch for dolphins, sea turtles, and tropical marine life. Premium snorkel gear, flotation devices, and crew assistance help you make the most of your time in the water.
Start with island-roasted coffee, fresh seasonal fruit, croissants, and gluten-free banana muffins. After snorkeling, enjoy an island-style lunch, then unwind with the open bar as trade winds carry the catamaran back toward Lahaina Harbor. With a group capped at 49 passengers, the experience balances reef time, sightseeing, and sailing. Book your Lahaina snorkel sail to Lanai and spend five hours exploring Maui’s beautiful Pacific waters.

How the score works and rating distribution in Maui
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.6. Top 13% in Maui means it ranks in the top 13% of tours in Maui by this score.
