Molokini Crater Deluxe Snorkel and Sail - Half Day Excursion

5 star experience! Staff was very personable! Attention to detail was amazing! I loved watching the crew doing figure 8's around the vessel ....they were always doing something and helping someone. Food was delicious! I enjoyed the housemate ginger ale! The pineapple was a nice pass around treat! Cleaning my sunglasses at the end of our excursion was again 5 star service! Highly recommend Alii Nui

The crew on the Ali’i Nui was fantastic. They were informative, personable, and kind. They didn’t hesitate to help when needed. Instructions were clear and we spent an adequate amount of time in the water seeing plenty of fish and turtles! Service for drinks was quick, and the food was plentiful. I had a great experience!

We LOVED our day on Ali’i Nui catamaran. The snorkel trip to Molokini Crater was fabulous. Could see for 100ft clear water. All of staff were super friendly and helpful. Loved having a female captain. Jordan was awesome as was all of her crew. Food and drinks were great. We will definitely book with them again when we are in Maui.

This is our second time on this particular excursion, and the crew and the boat are fantastic. The initial stop was too murky to be able to really snorkel, so we sailed straight over to Molokini and got some extra time in the water. If you're thinking about doing a snorkeling trip on Maui, I can't recommend this more.

Amazing experience, from the food and open bar, to the clear blue water snorkelling. The equipment provided was very good, sealed very well against your face so you can relax and see all the marine life. The boat itself was very comfy and smooth. The buffet breakfast and lunch were very tasty. The photographer did an amazing job at taking beautiful photos. The crew were all super friendly and fun. Totally worth it and would do it again.

Our day aboard the Alii Nui was, without question, one of the highlights of our trip to Maui. From the moment we arrived, the entire experience was first-class. We were warmly welcomed, the check-in process was seamless, and the crew made us feel like valued guests from start to finish. A special thank you to Captain Tim, who did an outstanding job explaining the day’s itinerary, safety procedures, and the activities ahead. His professionalism, knowledge, and friendly personality set the tone for an incredible day on the water. The crew truly made this experience exceptional. Cat, Pedro, Trent, Timmons, Dustin, Alfie, and photographer Chloe were attentive, engaging, and always one step ahead of every guest’s needs. Whether it was helping with snorkeling gear, serving drinks, answering questions, or simply making everyone feel comfortable, their hospitality was second to none. The food exceeded all expectations. The freshly prepared breakfast and delicious lunch were outstanding, and the selection of drinks throughout the trip was excellent. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the breathtaking beauty of Maui. Even cleaned our glasses 🙂. The views from the yacht were spectacular, with crystal-clear water, stunning mountain backdrops, and an incredibly relaxing atmosphere. Every moment felt special, and Chloe captured beautiful memories that we’ll cherish for years to come. If you’re looking for a luxury sailing and snorkeling experience in Maui, Alii Nui is absolutely worth it. The exceptional crew, outstanding service, delicious food, beautiful yacht, and unforgettable scenery made this one of the best excursions we’ve ever taken. Mahalo to the entire Alii Nui team for creating memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t wait to sail with you again! 🌺⛵️🐢

We were in Maui with family and decided to do a snorkeling excursion. It was the best day of our entire trip. The crew was amazing, the service level was top notch and our snorkeling experience was excellent. Highly recommend!

All the reviewers said this was the best snorkel cruise. So we chose this one. We had a wonderful time! Breakfast and lunch, fantastic crew and beautiful boat. I live on the Big Island. This was the best snorkel cruise I have ever been on.

We toured on funday Sunday with Captain Luke and his fabulous crew including Justin, David, Kat, Anika and Nick. The breakfast was of excellent quality and plentiful. Our reef snorkel at Molokini crater was beautiful and Captain Luke gave us plenty of time to explore the reef. We picked up anchor and headed to turtle point. I had the greatest nose to nose encounter with a magnificent sea turtle - the turtle and I were just floating with the current staring each other - one of the nightlights of my entire Hawaii experience. Lunch was even better than breakfast. The catamaran was clean and had plenty of room for all in attendance. There was reef safe sunscreen to protect us and the water. The crew was so attentive, welcoming and helpful. The entire experience far exceeded any expectations we had. I have to really give shout outs to Nick and Kat in particular for their Aloha spirit (as we were heading to port, Kat ran the entire boat cleaning everyone’s sunglasses). Cynthia the photographer did a great job as well capturing the day. If you’re contemplating a Molokini reef excursion, the Ali’i Nui should be your choice.

We took a 5 hour private charter with Alex and Travis. This was by far the family favorite activity on our 10 day vacation... Both Alex and Travis were top notch captains/crew. I cannot express how magical this 5 hours was! From our snorkel time, to all the extra special wildlife we saw (Hawaiian monk seal, spinner dolphins, turtles and reef life) it was amazing. The boat was super clean and had plenty of room for our family. We will 100% book this again!
