Amazing Tour! - This was a great, no-frills way to get to Molokini. We even got upgraded to also see Turtle Town, and we are SO glad we did. It is definitely worth paying to go to both locations. Thanks to our awesome Captain Matt and crew!

Nice to pause - Matt and Alex were just awesome and the smaller group is a better experience then the larger boats with 40-50 people, it was a perfect morning the weather was epic and the snorkeling was golden. Thank you for the memories!

Great experience, raccomanded! - Had a great experience! Makena coast charter's captain was waiting for us in the big free parking lot. Once on the comfortable boat he told us some safety measure cause is the most important thing for the crew to let us live a great experience, we did our smooth ride for the molokini Crater and then the crew gave us all the gear to snorkel taking care for the perfect fit. We snorkled in one eof the best spot ive been so far for more than half an hour and after we made safely our way back right after some snacks and drinks included in the experience. Also made some friends! Truly recommended and very good quality/price ratio considering also the perfect customer service that helped with my booking. Ill do it again if i will ever come back! Thanks again Lorenzo

Perfect for a quick trip - Perfect for a quick trip to get in some good snorkeling if you don’t wanna spend all day on one of the longer trips/larger boats. The smaller group size was nice. The faster more “speedboat” style trip out/back was fun too. Nice and knowledgeable captain and crew member, all equipment needed is provided. Good for any level imo. I’m a beginner and was totally comfortable. Fun time!
