Molokini Crater
Molokini Crater is one of the world’s most unique snorkeling destinations and is high on the list of Maui must-dos. Located off of Maui’s south coast, this crescent-shaped crater rises from the deep to form a natural marine preserve, home to an array of corals, tropical fish, manta rays, and even the occasional reef shark. In the winter months, you might even be able to spot a few whales from the boat!
Performance Sailing
Departing out of the blustery Ma’alaea Harbor, the 55-foot Akialoa uses Maui’s consistent tradewinds to its advantage. Here you’ll enjoy a leisurely morning sail through Ma’alaea Bay as you make your way towards Molokini Crater. Snorkel gear, flotation, and reef-safe sunscreen are provided onboard. This is one of the best trips for Maui snorkeling.

Both breakfast and lunch are provided on this tour. Enjoy a continental breakfast on the sail to Molokini and a full buffet lunch after snorkeling. A variety of beverages are provided as well, including wine and local beer.
