On clear days, snorkelers at Molokini Crater can enjoy underwater visibility of up to 150 feet, making it one of the best snorkeling spots in Maui. Thanks to the crater’s crescent shape and protected waters, the snorkeling conditions remain calm and crystal-clear year-round.

πŸŒ‹ 2) A Geological Wonder – Formed 230,000 Years Ago

More than just a Maui snorkeling destination, Molokini is a geological marvel! Scientists estimate that Molokini Crater was formed 230,000 years ago after a volcanic eruption beneath the ocean. Today, it stands as one of only three volcanic atolls in the world, making it a must-visit spot for a snorkel tour in Maui.
