Molokini Crater

Molokini Crater is a tiny volcano islet that is located a few miles off of Maui's leeward coast. In 1977, Molokini was declared a Marine Preserve, which makes it a great habitat for the abundant aquatic life and the most beautiful coral in Hawaii. Unlike shore dives in the surrounding islands, visibility at Molokini typically exceeds 150 feet, leaving you delighted and amazed.

On your dive, you will encounter thousands of reef fish, eels, and if you are lucky, White Tip Reef or Gray sharks, Manta Rays or a Whale Shark!
