Kai Kanani Molokini Snorkel Tours
Kai Kanani has the shortest ride to Molokini of any big boat: its 65-foot catamaran loads right off the sand at Maluaka Beach in Mākena. Choose the Sunrise Deluxe, which aims to be at Molokini first thing, or the mid-morning Signature Deluxe, which adds a gourmet lunch. Both add a second stop at Turtle Town along the Mākena coast.
