I thought the responses to your inquiries of June 18, concerning luaus, and August 25, concerning snorkeling, were excellent, and, in the case of luaus, were exhaustive.

Tammy if you want to see what people posted to your luau or snorkeling questions click on your name and all your prior questions will be listed. On the other hand you may be looking for new responses to this question.

Tammy,
Be sure and determine WHAT TYPE of Luau you want. The Feast at Lele is good, and showcases the various island influences in the Pacific. The Old Lahaina Luau is more JUST Hawaii's own stuff. The one's at the Marriott are really good, but pretty expensive. Be sure and get a bunch of coupon books at the airport. BE SURE that youo challenge a vendor who may help book you. They often, as we found, will match prices, or offer a freebie to go with booking one or more events through them. Lastly, the snorkel dives to Molokini, Turtle Town, Lanai and Coral Gardens are fine, but I found three FREE places that were equally great: 1) Black Rock at the base of the Sheraton Maui, Napili Cove, and D.T. Fleming Beach. Actually, my favorite, was when I walked South along the beach from our hotel, the Aston Kaanapali Shores, three properties to the beach zone that has trees lining it. Right in front of the newly being developed Westin property, there is a BEAUTIFUL coral garden there. The water is crystal clear, and there are as many fish and turtles aas I saw anywhere else!! Good luck. |

They often, as we found, will match prices, or offer a freebie to go with booking one or more events through them. For example, we got a free snorkel dive to the Coral Gardens with a Parasail through Boss Frogs. Lastly, the snorkel dives to Molokini, Turtle Town, Lanai and Coral Gardens are fine, but I found four FREE places that were equally great: 1) Black Rock at the base of the Sheraton Maui, Napili Cove, and D.T. Fleming Beach were great, but actually, my favorite, was when I walked South along the beach from our hotel, the Aston Kaanapali Shores, three properties South to the beach zone that has trees lining it.

The water is crystal clear, more than the other named places, and there are as many fish and turtles as I saw anywhere else!! Good luck. |

They take day and sunset trips to Molokini Crater and Turtle Town. Lots of marine life and turtles. Great family experience. |
We've been twice to the Sheraton Maui luau and we loved it both times.
