Maui has a number of great options for snorkeling around the island. There are a variety of snorkeling spots in Makena like Palauea Beach. There are good places to go along Wailea’s beaches. Honolua Bay up near Kapalua is a fantastic summer snorkeling spot. One of the most popular and well visited snorkel spots is Black Rock at Ka’anapali Beach. The reef around the rock attracts all kinds of sea life. Here is a quick video from a summer snorkeling session.

It is usually a pretty safe bet that you will see sea turtles (honus) and a variety of fish. You may even get to see a Spotted Eagle Ray like the one who swam up to check me out.

The beaches of South Maui are world renowned for their beauty. These beaches offer golden sand, blue waters and great areas for swimming and snorkeling. A couple of weekends ago, I went snorkeling at Palauaea Beach (also known as White Rock Beach in Makena. There is particularly good snorkeling starting just about ten yards off the north end of the beach. Here is a quick video I shot of the snorkeling excursion using a Contour Roam camera.
