Nick and Jake were great. We have a 26-year-old son with autism, nonverbal. The crew was great with him helping make sure he had a great time! We also got to see whales, dolphins, and sea turtles on the way back from the snorkel spot.I highly recommend this snorkeling experience.!

Had a great time. Boat ride was smooth and fast. We saw humpback whales, a sea turtle and our hotel from a far
Great morning

This is a small, fast red boat. You get to Molokini quickly for maximum time snorkeling. On the way there and back, we saw whales (February). Snorkeling is sweet and we were lucky that few boats were there. Would book again if friends want to go. Leaves from Kihei.

A bumpy, fast raft ride out to thd crater, music going, great vibe. If you can get Dani and Josh… score! Informative, professional, fun and eager to please. And we were so happy to have booked a 2 hour cruise as opposed to the typical 5 hour cruises. It was enough!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Music up, wind in your hair, a fast and splashy ride out to the crater, it sets the tone for such a fun start to the day! We love that you leaned into the vibe!
And we’re so glad you had a great snorkel and felt the 2-hour trip was just right. Dani and Josh will be stoked to hear this!
Mahalo for riding (and snorkeling!) with us!

We got to see a beautiful sunrise and snorkeling was amazing, lots of fish! We even got to see whales, I definitely recommend
Constance_B, Feb 2026
Super fun trip! Get ready for some splashes, a fun and exciting boat ride, an amazing snorkeling at the crater. Saw tons of whales on the ride to and from the snorkeling site. Guides were professional and knowledgeable. Would do this again 100%

We got to experience the extended snorkel tour with a few stops, including Molokini Crater and Makena (Turtle Town). The rafting itself was a great adventure, with a couple of stops to see whales swimming by or jumping out of the water (winter whale season). The 2 person crew gave excellent advice on how to make the most of our time in the water and BE SAFE. With a smaller tour group, the guides were able to keep track of us well and assist with any requests. We brought our own snorkel gear but they have everything you need if you don't. This was our second time going with them and will gladly join them again if we go back!

Great trip! Beautiful snorkel site and super friendly and helpful staff.
We saw several whales back and forth from the snorkel site. Unforgettable experience.
Nick_M, Jan 2026
Our guides Danny and Jake were very efficient, knowledgable, and fun. Best snorkel site ever! Incredible experience!
Chinglan_L, Dec 2025
We went the 2 hr snorkeling tour. The tour was excellent. Visibility was 10/10. Tony was our captain. Very attentive. We opted out turtle town.
Philip_P, Dec 2025
The check-in was simple, the boat crew was friendly and helpful, the guide was great. Equipment worked very well. Lot's of fish and coral and things to see. We even had a surprise guest, a Monk Seal which was a total thrill for everyone.
Aditya_S, Dec 2025
This was a perfect trip for a quick snorkel experience. I’ve done snorkelling twice before (Mexico and Greece). This was a great experience because the captain was patient and took the time to step by step teach everyone how to snorkel safely. The waters were not calm but it was relatively easy to snorkel. Plenty of fish and lots of corals.
Length of the tour was also perfect. For a casual tourism-only snorkeler, an hour is sufficient. Not sure what’s the added value in 3-5 hour tours.
Malvina_F, Dec 2025
Met my expectations and friendly people (we did the 7am 2 hour Molokini snorkel tour on December 21, 2025). I wanted a quick ride out to Molokini crater, as to spend most of my time in the water snorkeling. Redline was just that. They provided insight on Molokini, tips on where to see activity and safety info. The snorkel equipment was great, and we got to see lots of activity on the reef. I would recommend this tour
Heather_H, Dec 2025
Amazing! Amazing crew - so much fun. Boat ride was a blast and beautiful snorkelling! Highly recommend this adventure - 2 hours was perfect.
Stephanie_J, Dec 2025
I was a first timer and once I got the hang of it, it was a magical experience! Nick and Tim were patient, knowledgeable and made it a safe and fun experience! On our way back, they stopped the boat so we could enjoy watching the whales play and then again to check out a sea turtle! Highly recommend Redline Rafting!
Alexandra_L, Dec 2025
The perfect amount of time on the water. We get very sea sick, but still wanted to snorkel. This 2 hour tour was perfect. Our host Tim is very capable and kind - we had a wonderful time with them.
Shawn_T, Dec 2025
Great crew. Very attentive to first timers. Go with them. Made our first timers very comfortable. Great boat. Great fun.
K_G, Dec 2025
Tim and Josh were fantastic!! This was my second time on this tour and I highly recommend! It is a perfect 2 hour tour and we watched whales on our way out last week!! Amazing and so fun!
Margaret_S, Dec 2025
Trip was on a raft type boat. I was a little nerveous but it was easier than I thought and the speed was fun.
Theadora_H, Dec 2025
Tim and Serena were fantastic guides. We had a great time overall at the crater, but the catered experience the crew provided is truly what made the whole thing memorable. They provided clear communication, were aware of anyone’s concerns, kept everyone safe, all while keeping it jovial. The on-theme music while boating in and out of the crater was the cherry on top. As someone who is not a strong swimmer, I felt like my safety concerns were addressed, without making me overly worried. Loved the whole experience and would 100% book again.
Hana_B, Dec 2025
Wonderful snorkel tour; responsive and professional guides. What a great way to snorkel with the fishes! The trip over to Molokini is zippy and you can get right to snorkeling! Saw a whale on the way over.
Allison_M, Nov 2025
Look no further, book with this company! Everything was perfect… All of the equipment was good quality, knowledgeable and friendly captains, amazing snorkeling experience (even saw mom and baby humpback whale on ride out). A small amount of people allowed on their boat is a plus!
Katherine_M, Nov 2025
Tim and Josh provided an excellent experience. Tim should do some stand-up comedy on the side because he was cracking jokes and bringing levity to an already wonderful adventure! The crater provides a deep-water experience and a variety of fish to float around with-we even spotted a bottlenose dolphin on our return. The boat ride itself is a lot of fun, and Tim made our day with his adventurous spirit! Just go for it if you want to change things up one morning during an already epic vacation! Redline rafting offers a no frills, straight to the point experience! And in our opinion, it is the only way to do it! In and out with the rest of your day to enjoy!
Cristina_B, Nov 2025
We had such a great time! Our captains were super friendly and fun, and they made the whole experience even better. We saw so much marine life! Everything was really well organized, and we enjoyed it a lot. Highly recommend!
Michele_B, Nov 2025
Fun, efficient 2 hr adventure. Professional fun crew, good equipment, exciting bumpy fast boat ride, one hour of snorkeling. All we needed!
Fern_S, Nov 2025
Great trip, crew was informative and did a great job. We even took a tiny detour back to the boat ramp when the captain saw a whale nearby (we went in November, which is way early for whale season). The trip to Molokini was quick and comfortable and we got there after the big boats left and pretty much had the place to ourselves. Highly recommended.
Heather_P, Nov 2025
The guys were great! So helpful and explained everything so that it was easy to navigate as a first time snorkeler. I would definitely do it again!
Hannah_G, Nov 2025
It was so much fun. The ride over was just as exhilarating as the snorkel. The reef itself was gorgeous. There were so many unique fish to see.
