Join us for an exhilarating snorkel aboard the all new REEF EXPLORER, Maui's only luxury SUPER RAFT and snorkel the world famous Molokini Crater. Enjoy a full hour of snorkeling in this partially submerged volcanic crater, and view over 250 different species of reef fish and coral formations.
REEF EXPLORER is a state of the art, 60 ft Super Raft, which arrives to Molokini Crater in less than 30 minutes. This allows guests more time to snorkel in a private setting, away from crowds.
Our second snorkel stop is at our favorite "Turtle Cove", where we swim and observe the abundant population of Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles that make this cove home.
Tour includes pastries, deli wrap lunch, chips, granola bars, bottled water, sparkling water, Aloha juice, soft drinks, all snorkel gear and flotation devices.

We loved being on a small boat where individual questions could be answered
and the crew paid close attention to the fit of the equipment. The snacks and beverages were more extensive than advertised, and there was enough to take seconds. The 2-person crew was professional and personable. They were very upbeat, but they didn't display any of the hokey over-acting that many tour operators use.
We saw at least 20 of the 200 species that live in and near the crater. We saw several turtles, both at the surface and under the water. I was disappointed that they were small compared to others I've seen, but that's no-one's fault. The one suggestion I have is that the crew have pictures and give a little tutorial on the animals we're likely to see. I was able to ask a guy about what I had seen and get him to verify the species, but that's after the fact.

This was an incredible experience! We started in turtle town where we got to see MANY turtles. Then we headed to the Molokini crater, the conditions allowed us to snorkel the back of the crater which was super cool!!!! Felt like I was in an aquarium, crystal clear deep water that looked like it just went on forever. Unique fish all over. The inside of the crater was similar but not as deep, calmer water, still cool fish. We were lucky and saw many whales, we also had hundreds of dolphins swimming right next to the boat! The most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. (I added pictures but the videos I took can’t be posted on here) The crew was so fun and nice and knowledgeable. They really made the experience. Food was great, everyone was awesome. This boat is more intimate which is why we chose it as there are not tons and tons of people being packed on to the boat. We made friends with everyone sitting up front with us and overall had such an amazing day. This is a must do, I cannot wait to come back!!! (Bring a sweatshirt and towels it can get chilly)

The second stop with the coral with such a variety of fish swimming by and looking down into a blue abyss. That was the best.
We also liked the speedboat ride. That was fun.
The only thing I would recommend is to warn people to bring both a windbreaker and a fleece. I did and was nice and cozy but all the others in our group of eight and lots of other people brought either the one or the other and were freezing. That’s why a lot of people decided not to go into the water at the second stop and missed out on a wonderful experience.

We saw some whales, swam with the turtles, and had a great snorkel experience! The crew was knowledgeable and very helpful. We traveled with an 11-year-old as well as two adults. I highly recommend going!!

A perfect excursion! We saw the “trifecta” Sea Turtles, spinner dolphins/bottle nose dolphins, and a humpback whale! Ryan and Garrett were outstanding making my first timer 9 year old feel comfortable snorkeling and her shaky mama too! They entertained us with facts about the island, the crater, and the abounding wildlife. Incredible use of a Maui morning!

Garret and Ryan were fantastic host. The boat is great and they made the day as enjoyable as we could ever ask for. This is the TOP tour to do in Maui with this company.

They were amazing!! My 12 year old son got tired and cold after a little bit, but they were so kind and let him hangout on the boat with them, so I could snorkel longer. Which was so sweet of them!!
