Overview

Experience the rare opportunity to travel and see an entirely new Hawaiian island, Lanai, during this 5 to 6-hour adventure aboard a catamaran. Lanai is the Pineapple Island, and is home to incredible snorkel destinations and sea life. Passengers commonly see Spinner Dolphins, which jump and spin in the air! Lanai has a resident pod of over 100 Spinner Dolphins. Snorkel destinationsare beneath towering cliffs that climb to over 300 feet. The photo opportunities are unbeatable. You and your small group will be amongthe few people in the world to snorkel locationslike Shark Fin Rock and Manele Bay, each with up to 100 feet of visibility and in remote areas of Lanai. Breakfast and lunch isincluded.

Itinerary:


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.

    We had a great time on our snorkel trip. The crew was wonderful. We saw about 20 dolphins on our trip out to Lanai. We saw a large amount of really cool fish while snorkeling near Lanai. The food on the Quicksilver was also delicious. Thank you for making our trip one to remember. We hope that everyone from our trip is okay as we were there three weeks before the fire. Our prayers have been with the crew of the Quicksilver.

    The crew and the boat were great. The trip was not, but the crew could not do anything to change that. We were not made aware by the place where we booked the tour that it would take almost 2 hours to get to the snorkeling location at Lanai. We did see dolphins for about 10 minutes on our way there. At the location, we only saw individual fish with about a total of 8 or 9. It was a waste of time. The journey back was rough. Apparently, we were going through cross currents which rocked the boat enough that it made me nauseous, and my wife vomited 3 or 4 times. With the journey back also taking about 2 hours made it a very disappointing experience, and the people who take the bookings should state the facts about the journey time and the possibility of rough seas, as we know that other people on board had similar experiences we did.

    Beautiful home. Good location. Has all the things you’ll need to enjoy your stay. Beach towels, beach chairs, bodyboard, games, beach toys for kids

    Beautiful, very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Food was fresh and tasted excellent. Learning the history of the islands was interesting.

    Crew, boat, food were all excellent. But we didn’t go to Lahaina, just a place we could have driven to on Maui. And, obviously, no dolphins. Of course, snorkeling Maui is awesome too, but not what we paid for. They did throw in drinks for free, but that seems like just feeling guilty for a bad “No Refunds” policy, and doesn’t exactly work for kids. When you sell one thing and do another you should let people make the decision on whether they go or not. And offering to maybe reschedule when you’re on a short vacation doesn’t work, practically.
