Great trip for beginners. SO MANY FISH! Quick boat ride. The guide was very safety and environmental focused.

It was excellent! The snorkeling is amazing. The staff was very accommodating & great communication.
Romano_C, May 2026
Great experience on this trip! The meeting spot was only about a 10 minute drive from the hotels in the area and being on the 7am boat meant that we were the 2nd boat out there and had the Crater to ourselves! Chase and Jake were great guides. They quickly gave us a tour around the crater and then tied up on the best snorkel spot. Was supposed to only be to the crater and back, but we had some extra time so did a quick stop at turtle town too! Would definitely recommend for anyone who gets seasick as it’s a quick boat ride out and most of the time is spent snorkeling, then we’re able to get back to shore by 9am to enjoy the rest of the day!

This is perfect to fit into a short time schedule. Had a great experience and the crew was wonderful, informative and safety was the number one. Snorkel and fins included and if you need a floater they have that too. Next time hoping to do their 5 hour tour
Jennifer_T, May 2026
Very fun, uncomplicated and beautiful experience. Clear and friendly before boarding, good and comfortable motor boat ride (so note, a bit bumpy and wet due to type of transport), and clear instructions and advice on snorkeling. And….we saw a whale shark!!! Told that was like seeing a unicorn. And a ton of other beautiful sea life. Just what we wanted- a good snorkel experience and appreciation of nature.
Grace_B, Apr 2026
Such a fun time!!! Everyone onboard was professional and entertaining. The captain pivoted and brought us to a different part of the island to snorkel due to the currents. And it was incredible! We saw a ton and had a lot of time uninterrupted in the water!
Xavier_P, Apr 2026
The company and staff in the boats were the best!! Tim and Jaime were so amazing and treated everyone like ohana! Went the extra to make someone very nervous about the water very comfortable and stayed with them until they felt ready to go alone! One of the best experiences!!
Leahe_M, Apr 2026
It was so enjoyable to go out to the crater and see the marine life below the water, the 2 hour experience was the perfect length
Luke_R, Apr 2026
You want a fun experience? Well than you've clicked the right snorkeling company. Speed boat, good vibes and a fun level of professionalism. These guys clearly enjoy what they are doing and it shows. Would highly reccomend 10s across the board.
Christian_H, Apr 2026
Great tour, perfect amount of snorkel time and great information. Great for all five levels. Guides are very knowledgeable.

Super great experience! The boat was quick and even left a little earlier since everyone showed up on time. Lara and Tony were great hosts. The Crater is beautiful and loved that we got a full 2 hours of snorkeling to take our time. Would recommend this tour to everyone, the boat is very fast and a fun ride. I tend to get seasick but did not experience any extreme symptoms. Must see in Maui!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
We’re so happy to hear you’d recommend our tour! We’ll be sure to let Lara and Tony know of your praises, and how awesome that you were able to enjoy the ride without any seasickness, what a win! It sounds like you caught Molokini at a beautiful moment and really got to take your time out there, which is exactly what we hope for.
We hope to adventure with you again someday and see you back at Molokini!

Julia_M, Apr 2026
Booked this just a couple days before our trip as we were snorkeling other places and really wanted to see Molokini. So glad we added this adventure! Snorkeling was some of the best - felt like you were inside an aquarium! Loads of fish!! Quick boat ride to the spot. Crew was great
Rebecca_V, Apr 2026
The zodiac tour to Molokini was awesome! It's the fastest way to get there and so much fun. The snorkeling was fantastic, water is so clear. Our crew took great care of us, I dropped my phone in the water and a crew member dove in and retrieved it for me!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Oh how great we were able to retrieve your phone, what a save!! We’re so glad we could help avoid that loss!
We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to the crew, they’ll love hearing it!
We hope to adventure with you again another day!

Super efficient snorkeling. 2hrs out and back float and see all the amazing sea life! They were great with talking you through what to expect, what to do, what not to do. We saw a humpback whale and gave us facts about them, and facts about the surrounding islands near Molokini.
Laura_B, Mar 2026
Our guides were friendly, informative and gave clear instructions. First time snorkeling and had a delightful time
Matthew_B, Mar 2026
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.!
Kirstin_M, Mar 2026
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
Stephen_H, Feb 2026
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.
Karyne_B, Feb 2026
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%
CHRISTOPHER_V, Feb 2026
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
