Snorkel Molokini Crater on a small-group Maui boat trip, with expert guidance and a quick ride from Kihei to clear waters.

About this tour

Explore Molokini Crater’s clear waters on a small-group Maui Molokini snorkel trip, with a quick boat ride from Kihei and an expert guide to help you make the most of your time in the water. The crater is one of Maui’s best-known snorkeling destinations, and the trip takes about 15 minutes to reach it.

Once there, snorkel with the provided equipment and take in the underwater scenery. With a maximum of 14 passengers, the outing offers a more intimate feel than a large boat excursion. Choose an early departure to be among the first to snorkel, or opt for a later trip after the crowds have eased. The ride can be wet and bumpy, and guests need to climb a vertical ladder to get back aboard after snorkeling.

Meet at Kihei Boat Ramp 30 minutes before departure. Bring your own towels, sunscreen, and water, as these are not provided. Book your Maui Molokini snorkel trip for a close-up look at the crater’s inviting waters.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.90 from 964 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Maui
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.4. Top 18% in Maui means it ranks in the top 18% of tours in Maui by this score.
