About this activity

Enjoy our brand new "2025 Model" vessel. Maui's newest raft boat. Comfortable seating and shade area for everyone.

Beat the crowds and tick off both Molokini Crater and Turtle Town on one easy 3‑hour cruise. We cast off at 7 a.m., when the water is glass‑calm and visibility can reach 150 ft—perfect for GoPro‑worthy shots of 250+ reef fish, 38 coral species, and the occasional manta ray or monk seal. Then hover beside green sea turtles at their famous cleaning stations.

• Small group—19 guests max on a roomy vessel

• Concierge crew fits your premium snorkel gear

• All gear, float belts, beverages, snacks & light lunch included

• Marine‑life briefing and strict “look‑don’t‑touch” ethics support reef conservation

Check in 6:30 a.m.; back at the dock around 10:00 a.m.—leaving the rest of your day free for Haleakalā or beach time. Book now to lock in Maui’s earliest, most uncrowded Molokini combo!
