Afraid of water? Don't want to get wet? No problem. There are ways to explore the depths of the ocean without holding your breath. Many unusual watercrafts are waiting to show you Maui under the sea in complete comfort. Aboard one of these boats, you'll find yourself eyeball to eyeball with the exotic denizens of the reef.
The Atlantis is the world's largest and most experienced passenger submarine fleet. On this voyage, you will journey to depths of approximately 100 feet in air-conditioned comfort and safety. During whale season, which begins in December, Atlantis passengers will see Maui's visiting whales from the shuttle boat as they cruise out to the submarine along the Lahaina coastline.
Seaview Adventures, a semi-submersible craft, is a glass-sided vessel that offers dry reef viewing. You're underwater in a spacious air-conditioned viewing area. When you're ready to get wet and become part of the underwater world, you can go topside to don snorkeling gear and jump in.
Reefdancer is a semi-submersible with a unique design that allows you to sit underwater in shallow water, while the upper portion of the boat remains on top the water. It's calm and comfortable down there, and what a view. The whole family can enjoy this adventure. The Reefdancer boards from the dock in Lahaina Harbor, just a few steps into the air-conditioned cabin. The company prides itself on its dive show, the only one on Maui. Divers will bring creatures right to your window, while another experienced diver explains the sights from within the cabin.
