Snorkel Molokini Crater and Turtle Town from Maui with breakfast, lunch, gear, crew support, and scenic whale watching.

“If you want picture package for 125 then make it known so you have more & better shots. Crew was great, I've seen better fish on other snorkeling islands, but the crater is unique spot. Makena turtle town was Worth the whole deal seeing sea turtles super close up!”

Review of Redline Rafting’s five-hour Maui snorkeling trip to Molokini and Turtle Town, with early access, small groups, meals, and expert guides.

“I had an absolutely wonderful time on Redline Rafting’s Molokini snorkeling tour. From the moment I checked in, the crew made me feel welcome and excited for the adventure ahead. Their friendly service set the tone for the whole morning—warm smiles, easy conversations, and the kind of hospitality that instantly puts you at ease. The ride out was full of laughter, great music, and just the right amount of adventure to get everyone hyped for the day. Once we arrived at Molokini, the team really shined. They were incredibly knowledgeable about the reef, the wildlife, and the island’s history, and they shared it all in a way that was fun…”

Fast, small-group Maui snorkel trip to Molokini Crater and Turtle Cove, with gear, lunch, turtle sightings, and possible whale watching.

“Esteban and jay, turned a crappy weather day into a good one. We traveled all around looking for a spot but the winds wouldn’t allow molokini or turtle area. We were taken to the best spot weather would allow and boy was it awesome. Without them it would’ve been a long, wet miserable adventure.”

Review of Maui’s Molokini and Turtle Town yacht snorkel, with food, open bar, luxury amenities, costs, weather risks, and booking tips.

Boat beautiful new and clean. The equipment for snorkeling was new and very good too. They offer ginger laced sprite to calm stomachs. Definitely a great trip. We highly recommend this trip and crew!”
