Best Snorkelling & Boat Tours in Hawaii

Nā Pali coast sailings, manta night snorkels and seasonal whale watching.

Snorkel cruises in Hawaii are island-specific: nobody flies between islands for one. Group the decision by where you are sleeping and the choice becomes simple. Oahu is short, cheap turtle trips from Waikiki. Maui is Molokini crater, which needs an early start. The Big Island has the manta ray night snorkel and the Captain Cook monument. Kauai is the Na Pali coast, which is a five-hour day rather than a morning. Sunset and dinner sailings are compared separately.

What you are choosing

You are choosing a snorkel trip on the island you are already staying on — and then between a reef morning, a crater, a night dive with manta rays and a full-day coastal sail.

The main differences

  • Oahu — Waikiki turtle snorkels: Two-hour reef trips minutes from Waikiki, the cheapest snorkelling in the state.
  • Maui — Molokini crater: Early-morning crater trips before the wind, plus West Maui reef alternatives.
  • Big Island — manta rays and Captain Cook: The night manta snorkel and the Kealakekua Bay reef, both Kona departures.
  • Kauai — Na Pali coast: Five-hour raft and catamaran trips where the coastline matters as much as the reef.
