BLUE WATER RAFTING

Kanaio Coast

Your journey begins within the safe confines of the Kihei Maui Boat Ramp which enjoys the protection of the 10,000 foot volcano, Mt. Haleakala. Early morning departures are for the Kanaio Coast, where side vents erupted from the volcano as recently as 1790.

MAKING MEMORIES SINCE 1985

About Us

Blue Water Rafting has been offering a variety of high adventure snorkeling and sightseeing tours on Maui since 1985. Our tours are an awesome small group adventure! Climb aboard our fast moving high-tech Blue Water Raft and let the adventure begin! You will be snorkeling in the bay where dolphins spend a lot of their time, so there’s a good chance that you will be seeing pods of the spinner or bottle nose dolphins. Very cool!

South Maui is where the last volcanic eruption flowed, occurring a little over 220 years ago. It is a rugged area full of lava tubes, lava arches and sea caves. The Kanaio coastline is not accessible by car and only a few can hike the lava rocks surrounding this Coastline. As you travel around this southernmost tip of Maui , the ocean water seems more pristine, clear and beautiful blue-green! You will truly be amazed by the color of the water.

Our Blue Water Rafting adventure is snorkeling without the Molokini crowds. Guests can see dolphins and turtles in their natural habitats, volcanic lava in all it’s forms and enjoy a scrumptious lunch on board! Our friendly crew keep the party going! Snorkel gear, beverages and lunch are all included!

We love Maui, Hawaii

Maui has some of the most beautiful coastal scenery on earth. On a clear day, as many as 6 different Hawaiian islands can be seen at one time if you include Molokini (technically an islet). Join us soon for an unforgettable Maui snorkeling adventure.

Simply the best snorkeling/whale watching tour ever!! Joey and Angela were amazing! We saw so many whales during our trip. We even stayed out a little longer because the whales were putting on such a show. Angela’s enthusiasm for her job is contagious. She loved seeing the whales more than we did. 🐳🥰. If you’re looking for a great time, book this tour!

Get on the blue water raft for snorkeling

Great crew. Fantastic trip. Got to see whales as a bonus. Loved the snorkel, fab views of swimming with turtles and eels. Worth the dollars.

Amazing Day with Blue Water Rafting

This was a highlight of our vacation! Katy & Captain Joe were both very good guides to an amazing day. The tour of the coastline was epic and we saw whales, sea turtles and the snorkeling was truly incredible. I will highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Unbeatable Molokini trip

We have now done this tour twice and it was amazing both times. we saw more of the waters around Maui and Molokini than any other trip we have taken and the snorkeling was incredible. We only had 6 in this trip, just enough to go out. It made for a great time and wonderful views. Uninterrupted snorkeling in the Molokini is incredible.
