Things to do in Lanai

The primary destination during most of the year is Maui’s Honolua Bay Marine Reserve, renowned for its superb snorkeling. Alternative snorkeling locations include Cliff-house, Lanai and Turtle Town in Olowalu. While snorkeling along Maui’s west coastline, experience warm waters abundant with sea life. You will see a variety of tropical fish including Hawaii’s state fish, the Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, and if you’re lucky an endangered Hawaiian green sea turtle. After snorkeling, a hot buffet lunch is served and the complimentary bar is open. During the summer months, the crew sets sail into the tradewinds always on the lookout for spinner dolphins. During the winter months, the crew sets off to look for Maui’s annual visitors, the humpback whales.
