What To Expect
Molokini Crater
Discover the beauty of Molokini Crater on an unforgettable snorkeling adventure! Your experience begins with check-in alongside our friendly captain and crew at Maalaea Harbor, Slip #80. From there, we set off across Maui’s scenic coastline, keeping an eye out for marine life along the way. Upon arrival at Molokini, you’ll receive a full snorkel briefing before jumping in to explore the crystal-clear waters of this world-famous volcanic crater. Beneath the surface, you’ll encounter vibrant coral reefs, tropical fish, and some of the island’s most stunning underwater scenery. From December through April, your trip may also include the incredible bonus of humpback whale sightings during peak season. Please note that all snorkel destinations are weather dependent, and while we always aim for Molokini, locations cannot be guaranteed for safety reasons.

Great experience for families

5.00We had a great experience! Everything was very streamlined. We took our three kids who are 6, 8 and 10 and they had a blast! They had several different flotation devices to choose from - life jackets, float belts, kick boards and the sea board, which my 6 year old LOVED. The underwater viewing area on the boat and the slide were big hits with our family as well. We all really enjoyed the food, and the adults enjoyed a few drinks on the way back. The underwater photos were a nice touch and I did end up purchasing the photos that were taken of our family in the water and on the boat. On our way back we encountered a pod of spinner dolphins which was so cool to see! I highly recommend this tour and would do it again.
Great but curb turtle-sighting expectations

5.00Absolutely amazing experience! This was a mother daughter trip with myself, sister, and 82 year old mom. The crew was fantastic, very helpful with our mom who has never snorkeled and was nervous about getting in & out of the boat. The young men assured her that they would be right there with her. They were so sweet! The photographer was hilarious, got some memorable shots for us. Food was delicious. An added bonus was not only did we see a dolphin, but a mama whale with her calf, & they really put on a show for us! Our captain was thrilled that we got to witness that, as it’s very rare this time of year. We were so thrilled to have had such a positive experience, and to have made a lifelong memory. Thank you to the wonderful staff that made that memory possible!
Awesome experience
