What to Expect

The tour begins with a check-in at the Kihei Boat Ramp. After a short safety briefing by the captain, you'll board a speedy and comfortable vessel for a scenic 20-minute ride to Molokini Crater. Along the way, enjoy panoramic views of Maui's rugged coastline and neighboring islands as the crew prepares and adjusts your snorkeling gear.

Upon arriving at Molokini Crater, you’ll step into crystal-clear waters that reveal a vibrant underwater world. With visibility often exceeding 100 feet, Molokini is a haven for snorkelers. Encounter over 250 species of tropical fish, graceful manta rays, and even the occasional Hawaiian monk seal as you glide through this protected marine sanctuary. The crew will provide guidance and ensure your safety, making this experience both fun and relaxing.

After an hour of snorkeling at Molokini, the boat will whisk you away to the next destination: Turtle Town. Famous for its resident Hawaiian green sea turtles (Honu), Turtle Town offers a chance to swim alongside these gentle creatures as well as reef triggerfish, butterflyfish, and other marine species. Every encounter here is unique, creating lasting memories.

As you relax and refuel between snorkeling sessions, enjoy complimentary snacks and beverages, including sandwiches, chips, granola bars, and refreshing Hawaiian-made juices. The tour concludes with a scenic ride back to the Kihei Boat Ramp, leaving you with unforgettable views and incredible photos to treasure.
