Kai Kanani's sunrise snorkel tours to Molokini Crater consistently deliver memorable experiences, with the crew earning special praise for their friendliness and professionalism. The early departure times mean you'll often be first at the crater, enjoying crystal-clear water and abundant marine life before the crowds arrive. Guests rave about the food service, from fresh cinnamon rolls en route to a full breakfast with drinks on the return trip. The crew clearly knows how to make everyone comfortable, particularly first-time snorkelers who appreciate the thorough instruction and attention to safety. The logistics run smoothly most days, though beach loading can be challenging in rough conditions. One cancellation due to unsafe waves highlighted the company's commitment to safety, though it revealed gaps in their backup plan for handling difficult conditions. A couple reviewers mentioned crowding on the sunset sails and slightly disjointed check-in procedures. These occasional hiccups aside, the overwhelming majority describe well-organized trips with attentive staff who go out of their way to ensure guests have fun. The GoPro rental option is popular since you keep the SD card, and the Wailea hotel pickup adds convenience for those staying in the area.
Hey this place Rocks. We got to see sea turtles and Parrot fish they were beautiful. The staff were really professional and knowledgeable. We had 18 of us out on the boat so it was a family adventure for us. I definitely would do this again had a blast, delicious food, and great memories. Thanks
