Where To Stay In Maui For The Best Snorkeling?

Honolua Bay is a popular snorkeling spot on the west side of Maui, offering calm waters and sea turtles. The majority of good snorkeling is in south Maui, around Kihei, Wailea, and Makena, but there are some good spots around Kaanapali, Honokowai, Napili, Kapalua, and Honolua Bay. The area is known for its calm waters and coral reefs brimming with marine life.

The best snorkeling in Maui transports visitors from scenic tropical beaches to a vibrant underwater world full of sea life. One of the top Black Rock (Kaanapali Beach) is one of the best beaches in Maui not only for snorkeling but also for a whole host of other fun activities. Molokini Crater, an underwater volcano islet approximately 2.5 miles off Mauis south shore, is like no other snorkeling location in the world.

There are several resorts for Maui snorkeling, including Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa, Fairmont Kea Lani, Hotel Wailea, and Wailea Beach Resort. The Westin Villas, Maui Kaanapali Villas, and Sheraton Maui offer the best snorkeling and by far the most extensive reef. Honolua Bay is a marine life conservation district, which means fishing in the area is possible.

The Sheraton Maui Resort Spa, Maui, Hawaii, is a favorite resort for snorkeling, with many guests observing fish, dolphins, rays, and sea turtles. Black Rock is located on Kaanapali Beach in West Maui and has won numerous awards as one of the best places to visit in Maui.
