LIVE CLOCK

Dock wisdom

·

Book Molokini snorkel trips the night before — early morning (7 AM) has the best visibility and calmest water.

·

Whale watching (Dec–Apr) is best from Maui's west side; the humpbacks breed and calve right in the Au'au Channel.

·

The Black Rock free snorkel directly off the beach rivals any boat snorkel — enter from the Sheraton side at high tide.

·

Lahaina Harbor boats sometimes depart from Ka'anapali directly — confirm pickup location when booking.
