Teralani Snorkel Sail charters offers two different tours that depart directly from Kaanapali Beach. The Teralani 2 and the Teralani 3 are beautiful 65′ x 35′ sailing catamarans with a covered salon and bar, indoor and outdoor seating, two spacious restrooms and fresh water showers. The tours are limited to 49 persons (although the capacity is 125)…so there is plenty of room to stretch out and relax.

The experienced captains will take you to two of the best snorkeling spots (locations vary depending on weather and sea conditions). Snuba is an on board option. While you explore the amazing underwater world, the friendly crew prepares your lunch and the tour turns to pure relaxation. The bar opens and you sit back and enjoy the views as you sail back along the scenic west Maui coast to Ka‘anapali.

Cruise Ship Passengers

NCL Pride of America cruise ship passengers who come into Kahului are able to do the 5 hour premier snorkel on their second day in port, but a drive of an hour is required. We recommend that you do a Molokini snorkel tour instead as Maalaea Harbor is much closer to your ship. Lahaina cruise ship passengers can do either Teralani snorkel and a short cab ride of 10 minutes is required.

Activity Tips

Kevin Ditamore – Owner / Manager

Teralani II and III are both beautiful sailboats that are meticulously maintained and offer a quality premium snorkeling experience on Maui’s west side. Capacity on these boats is 49, which is less than half of the people you’ll find on most of the Molokini snorkel tours. People also appreciate the mid-morning check-in times … this is a good choice for people who don’t want to get up at 6am every day on their vacation. In the wintertime Honolua Bay isn’t available as a snorkel destination … winter swells make Honolua Bay a surfer’s paradise but those waves make snorkeling impossible. The water becomes murky and you can’t see a thing. In the wintertime this boat’s destination is the south shore of the West Maui Mountains … the added bonus during this time of year is the numerous whale sightings on the way. The Teralani boats also offer two different Maui sunset sail experiences, one with dinner and one with heavy appetizers. All drinks and food are included with the published rates for the Teralani.

Teralani boats pull right up onto Kaanapali Beach for boarding … you take your shoes off and walk across the sand to get on the boat. You will likely get your feet wet as the first step onboard will either be on wet sand or in a few inches of water (you could even get splashed up to your knees if a wave hits while you are boarding). Occassionally we have someone who just can’t load this way … if that’s the case consider doing a Sunset Dinner Cruise out of Lahaina Harbor instead.

Another Kanaapali Snorkel option is Hula Girl.
