Description

If you’re interested in pristine coastal reefs and a magical coastline without the Molokini crowds, book this one!

Snorkel remote coves, pinnacles and bays experienced by few and inaccessible by car. Sightsee the crystalline volcanic formations of Mail’s most recent lava flows. Trip includes breakfast (consisting of a muffin and fruit platter), snorkeling at dolphin and turtle habitats, lunch (individually wrapped ham and cheese, or turkey and cheese croissants and nut free chocolate chip cookie, water and Hawaiian juices. Vegan or gluten free option available if requested in comments section when booking), beverages and snorkel gear.

The Kanaio Coast Tour offers an opportunity to explore a rarely seen part of Maui, The Volcanic Kanaio Coast and a variety of remote exotic snorkeling sites, including both spinner dolphin and green sea turtle habitats.

The Kanaio Sea Caves… Passengers can expect a rare treat as they tour along Maui’s Gold Coast past Wailea and Makena to a remote and inaccessible coastline with spectacular views of the slopes of Mt. Haleakala. About 200 years ago at Kanaio, molten lava exploded from a side vent and poured into the ocean forming incredible lava arches, grottos and sea caves. Photographers will delight with the array of unique formations that await at every turn.

Dolphins Dead Ahead!… Following Kanaio, you will cruise to the protected waters of La Perouse Bay, frequently encountering a school of spinner dolphins, including babies, along the way or in the bay it’s self. Named for their acrobatics, these playful mammals will frolic in the wave produced by our boat sometimes only a few feet from the bow!

Green Sea TurtlesOn many occasions our snorkelers have been approached by the dolphins while in the water. This experience has been described as spiritual and is a visual and auditory experience that one never forgets.

One of several remote snorkeling sites may be offered (time and conditions permitting) such as the La Perouse Pinnacle, which is teaming with fish. Each site has a unique underwater terrain and a variety of marine life.

Turtlely Cool!… Departing La Perouse Bay, we make one more stop in Makena where we serve lunch and snorkel with sea turtles and spotted eagle rays near pristine lava fingers. these turtles, although endangered and protected, are accustomed to seeing snorkelers and do not mind being photographed as they surface for air just a few feet away.

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.

Book this tour today!

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!

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.

Unforgettable experience!

Kanoe & Mike were amazing! Celebrated my 23rd birthday with them, and didn’t regret any of it. The tour was so informative, memorable, and most importantly, fun! 10/10 would recommend 100%!

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.
