If you're looking for an intimate, small-group sailing experience to Lanai, Paragon is the real deal. Unlike larger catamarans, Paragon takes you on a proper sailboat with a small group — meaning more personalized attention from the crew and a quieter, more relaxed day on the water.
Departing Lahaina Harbor at 9:30 AM, you'll sail across the Auau Channel to the waters off Lanai for snorkeling. The crew knows the best spots and will get you in the water where the fish, turtles, and spinner dolphins tend to gather. Breakfast and lunch are served on board, and you'll be back in Lahaina by 2:30 PM.

Absolutely incredible. The water clarity at Molokini was unlike anything I've ever seen — you could see the bottom 150 feet down. We spotted three sea turtles at Turtle Town and caught a humpback breach on the way back. Worth every penny.

The crew was so knowledgeable and made everyone feel safe, even nervous swimmers. Breakfast and lunch were surprisingly good for a boat tour. My kids (8 and 11) are still talking about the turtles.

We did this on our honeymoon and it was the highlight of the trip. The catamaran is comfortable with plenty of shade. Go early, the morning light on the water is magical.
