Turtle Town Beginner Snorkel Tour with Free Photos and Video

Overview

The Turtle Town beginner snorkel tour by My Splash is a 1.5-hour guided shore snorkel from Makena Landing Park with mask, fins, wetsuit top and photos included, from $129. It suits first-time snorkelers aged 5 and up who can swim with a vest; it demands stamina for extended swimming and we have not yet read reviews of this exact tour.

Highlights

• Cheapest of the operator's 9 products at $129 per person on to-hawaii.com, $20 less than the sea scooter version.
• Guided shore entry at Makena Landing Park, the Turtle Town reef where green sea turtles, goatfish, octopus and parrotfish are listed as likely sightings (Greetwell).
• Ocean safety and snorkeling basics are taught on the beach before entering the water.
• Mask, snorkel, fins, wetsuit top, reef socks and an optional life vest are included, plus photos and video from the guide's camera.
• Free cancellation up to 24 hours ahead for groups of up to 4.
