You step onto the yellow hull at Maalaea Harbor and the ocean changes its mood. The REEF EXPLORER hums beneath your feet, a 60-foot super raft built to skim the blue—fast enough to make the shore shrink and the horizon expand.

Molokini is a volcanic tuff cone formed during explosive eruptions; historically the surrounding waters were important fishing grounds for native Hawaiians.
Molokini and parts of Maui’s nearshore reefs are managed to limit fishing and protect coral; visitors are asked to use reef-safe products and obey no-touch rules to reduce impact.
