Turtle Town Maui
★★★★☆
(269)
This is one of the best spots on Maui to see sea turtles. Just off Makena Beach off the southwest coast of Maui, this site offers a shallow dive perfect for beginners and also snorkelers. This is a turtle cleaning station so activity is high.
This site is all about the turtles. Mostly green sea turtles, many who are resident turtles, but keep an eye open for hawksbill turtle sightings as well. Lots of Hawaiian reef fish too.
