Tour Overview

A Molokini snorkel experience is unparalleled and an absolute must when visiting Hawai’i. We know your time on Maui is precious, so we have designed this 3.5-hour experience for those that want to fit more exploration into their day. We will have you back to the harbor and off to your next adventure before the morning is over!

Aboard our Wikiwiki (Hawaiian for quick) Molokini snorkel we’ll dart off to Molokini to maximize our water time for a relaxing hour or more of snorkeling. Molokini is a Marine Life Conservation District and a Seabird Sanctuary; our crew is ready to share their knowledge about all of the marine life you’ll see above and below the surface.

After you’ve explored all that Molokini offers, warm up on deck with a warm freshwater shower, a grilled BBQ lunch and a local Maui Brewing Co. beverage for the ride home. Join us for a morning of Molokini magic!
