About
Gemini’s primary destination during most of the year is ‘West Maui’s’ Marine Preserve Honolua Bay, renowned for its superb snorkeling. Alternative snorkeling locations include Cliff-House, Lanai and Turtle Town in Olowalu.
While snorkeling along West Maui’s coastline, experience warm waters abundant with sea life. You will see a variety of tropical fish including Hawaii’s State fish, the Humuhumunukunukuapua’a, and if you’re lucky an endangered Hawaiian Green Sea turtle ‘Honu’.
After snorkeling a hot buffet lunch is served and our complimentary bar is open. During the summer months the crew set sail into the trade winds always on the lookout for spinner dolphins ‘Naia’. During the winter months Gemini sets off to look for Maui’s annual visitors, the humpback whales ‘Kohola!’
