The Olowalu Turtle Reef, also called "Turtle Town," is home to the Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle, which is accustomed to human proximity here and will often swim close to snorkelers. The cruise also offers an upgrade that includes a scuba diving tour with instructors for ages eight and up. Snorkel destinations are reached by cruise ship, and breakfast and lunch are included onboard the ship.
