Snorkel Maui’s vibrant reef with a marine biologist, spot sea turtles and colorful fish, and learn about conservation in a small group.

About this tour

Explore Maui’s colorful underwater world on a shore-entry snorkel at one of the island’s oldest and most vibrant reefs. On this Maui Marine Biologist Guided Snorkel Tour, a marine biologist leads a small group of eight or fewer, helping you spot sea turtles, bright fish, and beautiful coral while sharing insights into marine life and conservation.

The experience begins with a snorkeling lesson, then you head into the water with provided equipment, flotation, and reef-safe sunscreen. Clean, sanitized gear and a personalized pace make it easier to focus on the reef and the wildlife around you. Your guide also takes photos during the tour, so you can keep a record of your time in the water.

The tour lasts 120 minutes and departs from the Olowalu area near mile marker 14 on Honoapiilani Highway. You’ll receive the exact meeting pin and a photo of the company vehicle by text the day before. Basic swimming skills are required, and the experience is for ages 8–65. Join this Maui Marine Biologist Guided Snorkel Tour for a closer look at the island’s reef and the life it supports.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 219 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

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 9.5. Top 2% in Maui means it ranks in the top 2% of tours in Maui by this score.
