Snorkle with your favorite animals at Turtle Town
As suggested by its name, Turtle Town is teeming with marine life, specifically Hawaiian green sea turtles.
Visitors to Maui must go, whether they choose a full-day tour that includes lunch and a stop at the Molokini Crater or go alone (maybe for a peaceful kayak trip or a day of tanning on the beach).
A trip to Turtle Town at Maluaka Beach, one of the best sites to see the intriguing Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles, is one of Maui's Must-Do activities. In many ways, Turtle Town is a unique location. It is made up of a number of lava structures that are now home to a flourishing coral reef and a plethora of vibrant fish. The friendly and inquisitive sea turtles are, however, its "famous residents." They will frequently swim right up to you to inspect if you are calm, swim gently, and respect their space—a truly amazing experience!
Although Turtle Town is reachable by land, we do not advise doing so since you risk accidentally harming the extremely sensitive coral reef (and injuring yourself in the process).
