Snorkeling Tour with Magic Merman

Take your Maui snorkeling adventure to a higher level with Magic Merman. With a custom-built boat, designed from bow to stern with snorkeling in Maui in mind, the Magic Merman creates a comfortable and fun Maui snorkeling adventure. With a much smoother ride than a catamaran or sailboat, you will enjoy the benefits of arriving quickly to the snorkel site and a less bumpy ride.

Built at 40 feet in length, the Magic Merman is as comfortable as it is fast. Padded seats, backrests, and personal storage are just a few of the features that stand above the competition

As you race across the water heading to your Maui snorkel site, view the incredible West Maui Mountain, Lanai, and Molokai across the channel. Along the way, you may encounter the Spinner Dolphin playing in the swells or the wake behind the boat. Smile and have your camera ready to capture some awesome pictures to remember your adventure with.

Honolua Bay Snorkel Stop

Honolua Bay is the primary snorkel site on Maui that Magic Merman visits. Rich in coral reefs and teeming with marine life, you will understand why taking a Maui charter boat to Honolua Bay is so much better than trying to snorkel it on your own. IT’S FANTASTIC!

All I can is WOW! It was the perfect day on the water. We saw multiple sea turtles and dolphins and the snorkel sites were great. Makiya, Shasta and Emma were nothing short of fantastic. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this tour to anyone looking to snorkel on Maui in the Ka’anapali area. ❤️

This was a completely unforgettable experience and I would highly recommend this local, small business. The smaller group (we were a group of 11 total and 2 of Austin’s crew) setting and boat made for a much richer and informative experience. We were fortunate to see spinner dolphins on our trip as well as amazing reefs, ocean life and an abundance of sea turtles within arm’s reach. Our last stop even had a reef shark. Shasta was super helpful and informative both in the boat and in the water. It was our last excursion of our two week vacation and definitely one of our most memorable. Highly, highly recommend and a huge thanks to Austin and his crew for giving my family the best experience.

I was very skeptical of the fact that their reviews are all 5 starts, but booked it anyways. Now having done the tour I fully understand and agree with their deserving rate!Not only we had to deal with rescheduling the tour, but l got very seasick during the snorkeling trip. And all of them were absolutely helpful, friendly, prepared and very good at what they do.When rescheduling, I was surprised by their professionalism and commitment to helping find a solution.During the tour, Derek was absolutely ready to assist (had all tips and tricks to make me feel better and it worked!)And Emma, was amazing! Her customer service and assistance (in and out of the water), as well as her knowledge of the all the fish and dolphins we got to seeA well deserved 5 out of 5 starts!

One of the best snorkeling trips I have ever been on!!!! Professional, courteous, and flexible. This was smaller boat that seated about 20 which allowed the captain and two crew (call out to Shasta) to make sure we saw everything and always made sure we were comfortable, safe and fed. On our trip not only did we go to two sites to snorkel, but we saw lots of dolphins and a family of whales

We had the best experience on our Magic Merman snorkeling adventure! Over 2 hours of snorkeling time, tons of beautiful fish, and dozens of sea turtles spotted. Our staff were extremely friendly, informative, and fun. You could snorkel independently, or follow the guide. The food and drinks on board were also delicious! You can tell its a smaller company because of the amount of time and care they put into making your experience great. Highly recommend!

I did a 4.5 hour snorkeling excursion with the Magic Merman and it was the greatest experience! There was a small group of us which felt nice not being on an overcrowded boat. Derek and Sarah were the best! They took us to 3 different snorkeling spots on Maui, each one better than the last. We had fresh fruit for breakfast, banana bread and cookies, and wraps for lunch. All together we saw about 10+ sea turtles, a puffer fish, eels, and so much more. We even had dolphins chase the boat which was a great surprise! Can't say enough great things about this trip. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.
