An amazing day exploring the Molokini Crater with Captain Tim and Kelly. These two were especially spectacular in that they were extremely informed on the geology, history, biology of this rare area. They provided great local insight into the culture of this area, were so much fun to be around, and overall made the experience extra special. Fantastic personalities that were positive, uplifting and professional. Great tunes too. Feeling grateful to have booked this trip with them! Would 100% come back with friends.

Fantastic company. I have done quite a few different snorkeling companies on this island, from here on out, this will be the only one I use. The rafts arent necessarily as fun to cruise around on as a catamaran, but the MUCH smaller number of people you go out with is really fantastic. The 2 running the boat were so great, super kind, helpful, and knowledgeable about things, it was part snorkeling part tour. Multiple locations, early hours meant to utilize the best part of the calmer waters. Definitely recommend.

We did the 5 hour tour w/ 4 stops and it was awesome. Our captain was great as was the deck hand. Highly recommend! Leaves from Kihei so you get there faster than if you left from Lahaina & they also visit the backside of the crater. Which while there wasnt much to see...was really cool just to say we did it! Aloha! Enjoy!!

Quality experience. The Redline team is knowledgeable, safety conscientious, and looking to show their customers a great time. We decide to take the tour that went to multiple locations. Beautiful reefs and sea life including dolphins and sea turtles.

The Redline guys did a great job for us on 2/26/2020. There were 4 of us in our party and all were pleased. Captain John and the naturalist did a great job in finding whales, keeping us dry(as much as was humanly possible) and teaching us a lot about whales and their near lives. We will definitely come back for whale watching and snorkeling in the future with Redline Rafting.

We enjoyed our Redline whale watch so much that we booked a second during our stay - and it was even better! Captain Tim was terrific. The little raft was stable and secure, but loads of fun. And the whales were amazing! The crew did a good job of finding the whales and then deciding how long to stay with each group (there were a LOT of whales). We got to watch a group of humpbacks and dolphins interact for a long time, which was really special. The music was fun, the commentary was helpful and amusing, and our shipmates were a good bunch - both times. Well be back!!

Chase and Katie were awesome captains, this is the best company to go with for your Molokini Crater snorkeling. We were at the crater quickly and had a great time. I was nervous about the whole thing and Redline made me feel more comfortable. Then we swam with turtles which is life changing! Enjoy the music and dive in

Great whale watching outing. If your looking at different options save yourself some time and just go with these guys. Smaller boat/group size makes it easier to move to where the activity is and Chase and other guy(tavani or something like that-sorry!) were awesome. Already referred a few people their way and will continue to.

Awesome staffs. Sean and Kate were super helpful explaining every detail. We stopped at 4 places to snorkel. The boats are smaller than most boats so you get more mobility. Awesome experience and would definitely recommend to anybody looking to snorkel.

Review №13

Excellent trip all around. Seth and Kelly where very entertaining and educational as well. Learned quite a bit about the local underwater life and history of the island. Breakfast was light but enough to get you through until lunch. They set up a sandwich line on the back of the boat and it was all very tasty and filling. The last stop was amazing. We got to swim with wild sea turtles which is almost always a guarantee that they will hang out in the same spot according to Seth. Definitely worth every penny!!!

Awesome time!! Well worth the money and time. Unfortunately I cannot recall the name of our captain and deckhand after a long week of vacationing and boozing, but had an absolutely wonderful experience. They were very informative, helpful, and funny. So glad we decided on doing a raft boat over the giant tour boats as we had the opportunity to snorkel at a variety of spots and were granted much more in-water time than the other tours!

Review №15

We joined a two hour whale watch and couldn’t be happier we did. It was the perfect amount of time on the water and the whales were very active. Because it was a smaller boat we were able to get really close without disturbing the whales. The tour left for Kihei which is much more convenient than the marina if you are staying in Kihei or Wailea.Jonathan and Katie were great - they got us to the right spots and they were very knowledgeable.Be sure to book in the morning to avoid winds and choppy water.

Review №17

This is one of my best adventure I have ever done. Its not about snorkeling, it is Redline which makes it special. The whole 5 hours were super fun. The staff was very friendly and was having fun with us. The highlights of the tour were the Rafting experience in the middle of the ocean with amazing music and 360 degree turns, the backside of the Molokini Crater snorkeling, the sea turtle snorkeling and surprisingly the food. People have written about the food being limited but we felt it was very good quality and fresh food and was enough. Thanks Redline for the amazing experience.

My wife and I did a 7:00am Redline Whale Watching trip and the guys did not disappoint. Both the captain and the naturalist onboard were fun, knowledgeable and kept it light and easy going. Yes we saw many whales and some came right by the boat. Absolutely amazing to have a 45 ft whale swim within 10 feet of the boat, blowing air as he passes by. And the experience being so close to the waters surface makes it unique compared to the larger catamarans, which we also did. So if you are looking for a close encounter, right at the waters edge, I would highly recommend.

I have taken Redline tours on multiple occasions and every trip has been fantastic! The guides are fun, funny and they know so much about the animals that inhabit the Maui oceans. I cannot recommend them enough! If youre thinking of a whale watching or snorkel excursion while visiting Maui, use Redline Rafting. They dont disappoint.

Tim and chase were awesome! They were friendly, great sense of humor and knowledgeable. They made my wife and I feel comfortable and we enjoyed our time while being with them. Snorkeling was fun, saw an eel, octopus, and Spinner Dolphins came up next to the boat. Loved riding the elevator at the Maui Crater. Fun morning with Redline! Thanks guys.

This tour was amazing. They were at the boat launch early with coffee, first in the water and first out to the crater which was epic. Mike and Johnny were full of information and genuinely great guys. The boat was not over packed so lots of space for a comfortable ride. Delicious cinnamon buns served with fresh fruit and then lunch to end after turtle time. Perfect snorkel spots where we were either first to get there or the only ones. Highly recommend and will definitely do it again when we are back!

Amazing experience!! Very funny, helpful and nice crew!)) there are 3-4 stops for snorkeling, depending on weather conditions. Cris and Kate will take you to the best places to see the underwater life and make sure you have everything from this trip)) also includes fruits and cinnamon rolls for breakfast and sandwiches for lunch. They depart at 7am on a small boat carrying 20 people, so you will arrive before big boats. Which is really cool. Recommended

This snorkeling adventure was easily one of the best things we did on our entire trip to Hawaii. The water at each of the stops, especially Molokini Crater, was so clear and filled with fish! Part of the fun is definitely the boat ride and the views along the way might be worth the money alone. We went during whale season and got to see some whales 100 yards or so off the boat on a few separate occasions. We got to see 2 hunting bottle nose dolphins, several green sea turtles, an eel, butterfly fish, humuhumunukunukuapuaa, and lots of other fish, coral, and sea urchins. The crew was also awesome and fun - they played fitting music, gave us lots of info about the area, answered everyones questions, and helped us have a great time. They also provided a fruit platter and some delicious cinnamon rolls for breakfast, and a self-serve sandwich spread with pasta salad for a much needed lunch. This has to be the best snorkeling adventure on the island of Maui! Would HIGHLY recommend this snorkel adventure!

I did the snorkel tour which starts at 7am. It was so much fun! They had yummy cinnamon rolls for breakfast and sandwiches for lunch. We went to a total of four snorkel tours and they let us stay as long as we want. The best part were the giant sea turtles. Along the way, we got to see many whales. The crew would stop the raft so we can see the whales. I liked that it was not a rushed tour and just so much to see!

Highly recommend! Our group of 6 did a snorkeling trip to Molokini Crater and a few other spots and had an absolute blast. The guides made the entire trip a breeze and are probably moonlight as stand up comedians somewhere else on the island (absolutely hilarious), the equipment was in great shape, food was good. Overall, had an amazing experience and would absolutely do it again in the future.

Review №29

This was an incredible tour and a true highlight for our trip! The team was incredibly organized and briefed us with all the information we needed prior to departure. The tone on the boat was jovial and sincere. It is obvious the crew absolutely love their job and the beautiful environment they were sharing with us. The first stop at the crater was wonderful. The coral is so beautiful and teaming with wildlife. The other stops were also fantastic, we saw dolphin turtles and were lucky enough to see the occasional whale. Redline also provided a nice light breakfast to start and an awesome spread for lunch. We did so much on the few hours of the tour it felt like a full day! We highly recommend!If you are not a competent swimmer I wouldnt recommend. They do provide floaties but some of the currents can be powerful so you do need to be able to swim. We had a couple of people on our boat who clearly overestimated their swimming capacity in the ocean (which is obviously very different to the pool). If you can comfortably swim a lap of a 50m pool then youll be fine.

My partner and I took the Molokini Crater and South Maui Coast in February 16th. Our guides were safe, knowledgeable, and fun. We had an incredible time, the food was filling and we would definitely recommend Redline Rafting to others. Thank you for one of the most memorable days of our trip!

Excellent trip. I don’t live on Maui but my parents have for 10+ years and I’ve been coming here for 15+ years, and this company was one of the best excursions I’ve done on island. Staff was great, saw amazing fish and turtles, and lots of local knowledge. Small groups which is lovely. Do be aware that if you get seasick, this might not be the trip for you.

We had a fantastic snorkeling trip with Redline Rafting. The staff was excellent. We stopped at four different snorkeling locations, all a bit different and all great. We saw lots of fish, listened to the whales sing, rode the elevator on the backside of Molikini, swam with turtles and as a bonus watched a baby whale learning how to breach! If you are looking for a snorkeling experience that doesnt include 100 other people this is the trip to book!

Booked at snorkeling tour with them, our captain was Shaun and Kaike( not sure if I spell it right). There’s hot coffee upon arrival for 7am outting. The spot they took us to are incredible and they are taking us to the less crowded spots. Seen the fish, the island even the whale and sea turtle today. The lunch and drink was delicious, I will book them when I return for next maui trip !

Great trip! The boat was quick and got us to a nice variety of spots to snorkel. We avoided the crowds and because of the small boat size spent less time waiting for the last man to finish and board. Boat capt and first mate were very friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!

We did not regret booking this trip at all, the experience was worth every penny! Captain Sean and Katie were absolutely wonderful - both were friendly from the start of the trip, made sure everyone on board was taken care of and comfort with being in the water, and that we all had a great time. Both were also very knowledgeable about the area and sea creatures. In addition to the beautiful underwater sights, we left with some new found knowledge. Would highly recommend this trip to everyone!

This was a great experience!The Molokini snorkeling is a must, the best visibility we had for snorkeling while in Hawaii.Going behind the crater is also amazing, we even got to see a small shark swimming around. Note that you must be a good swimmer for the back of the crater, but everyone in our group, including kids, jumped in, and everyone was fine.The raft ride was also good, its not that jumpy as the ship is a good size. The guides were good and fun.We got to see some turtles, many types of fishes, a shark, and a whale breaching like crazy.Lunch is the normal boat lunch you get in these tours, nothing special.

Wow wow wow!!!! These guys are awesome! Fun and funny plus very knowledgeable of the ocean and it’s inhabitants. We also got to see humpbacks whales breaching multiple times, lots of turtles, a 300 foot wall of coral, and a rollercoaster boat ride with great music! They also served a very yummy breakfast and lunch while on the boat. We will do this tour again with them next time for sure!

We had some amazing hours out there with Sean and Mike as our guides. Weve been one of the first boats at molokini crater and apart from the snorkeling there and at turtle town (weve seen about 10 turtles) we also had a lot of fun riding some waves and as my special highlight, weve seen also a pod of spinner dolphins out there making some stunts. I would highly recommend this trip and with this small group you get more spots to see as with any bigger boat.

Review №51

This was a great trip. Tim and Chase were awesome, they provided good information and made for a really fun time. We went to 4 snorkel sites, rough seas kept us from the 5th spot, which is where you might see Spinner Dolphins. The Molokini crater and back side were great for seeing a ton of fish. We were the first ones out there thanks to the fast and maneuverable boat. At the turtle spot, we saw so many turtles and they came right up by us and didnt seem to mind us. We got some good shots with my phone in a waterproof bag. Cinnamon rolls and fruit were provided for breakfast at the crater. Lunch was make your own deli sandwiches at the last spot, all of it was good. This is not a smooth leisurely boat trip, this is fun and exciting. The trip was definitely worth it.

If you are looking to snorkel out of Kihei book with Redline Rafting! I chose it because of high ratings. I will add to those high ratings! My husband and I are experienced divers/snorkelers. We had the BEST snorkel trip today with them! Shawn and Tim were AMAZING! So much fun from music they played to stories and facts along the way. We swam with many turtles today-So fun! We were the first boat to each location which gave is 10 -15 minutes before all the others got there. Only 15 people on our boat gave it a personal experience. Worth every penny! You will not regret it!

Best Snorkel Trip on Maui! I have been snorkeling on Maui trips for over 40 years and this trip was my favorite by far! We had four in our party and saw so many colorful fish, eels, octopus, turtles!Jonathan and MIke were fantastic! We snorkeled in four spots as this boat was able to go to places some of the larger boats can not go to. They served us a light breakfast and a good lunch.The only negative is there was not a toilet on this raft.Also, you have to be able to climb back in on a ladder. We had no problem with that and will be talking about this snorkel trip for a long long time!Mahalo Jonathan and Mike and Redline Rafting! We will be back.

We recently did the Redline Rafting tour to Molokini Crater - wow what a fantastic trip! Shawn and Chase were amazing captains and guides! They learned and used our names the entire trip which made the trip feel more personal. Chase got great pictures of us snorkeling from below. They took us to 4 different locations to snorkel, explaining what we would see, and even giving history of the crater as we circled it. We were with our 11 year old daughter and they made sure she was enjoying the trip as much as the adults were. It was a small group - only 24, and we left early so we were guaranteed the best spots to snorkel with the least amount of competition in the water from other snorkeling boats.We were fed a small breakfast of cinnamon rolls and fresh fruit and lunch was sandwiches, pasta salad, and a drink. It was all presented beautifully, and we ate till we were full. This was a very memorable trip and I would definitely go on the Redline again!

Review №58

Unforgettable trip. To be honest I was very nervous at first being that this was just a large raft on a very large ocean and not a boat. The waves were large and choppy due to it being windy, but let me tell you, our tour guide Mike & Captain Johnny were amazing. You could not even tell we were on a raft and they knew very well what they were doing. We went out only expecting to see some turtles and possibly some dolphins and came back seeing Turtles, Dolphins and Whales among many colorful fish. Mike went out of his way to get videos on our GoPro for us at the bottom of the ocean and even caught the dolphins swimming under the boat for an amazing video memory. They both went out of their way to make this an amazing trip and it was. Food was also very good. I definitely recommend this company and am so happy we went with the raft vs the big boats full of dozens of people. You will not be disappointed.

Red line snorkeling was the best activity we did in Maui. It was a fun way to reach molokini. We arrived before they were too much of a crowd there and then made 3-4 more stops to snorkel in beautiful places as a small group (~15 people). So much fishes to see and turtles to swim with. Breakfast and lunch are served. Awesome team. Beautiful view on the raft.

In the past I have always done trips on bigger boats and had no idea what I was missing. I absolutely loved this trip! The smaller and faster boats Redline uses results in more time in the water and going to places the bigger boats cant get into. Plus that staff was great! Was the highlight of our 9 days in Maui.

Excellent tour guide. As a novice snorkeler he walked me through the process. Wet suit, snorkle, flippers, breakfast, lunch and reef safe sun screen all provided. Boat was fun, and he did a few loops to show off. Amazing sites chosen to have our stops at. Cant recommend highly enough.

12/10 experience! We did both the whale watching and the Molokini snorkel trip (on two seperate days). Our guides each time were Tim and Katie. They work so well together, they were kind, professional, and helpful. Ive been whale watching and snorkeling in Maui before through other companies, but this was the best trip of all of them.

Review №68

There are quite a options to choose from when it comes to snorkeling out to the Molokini crater in Maui, and let me help you make the decision and just go with Redline Rafting! From the check-in experience, to the boat ride, to the snorkeling, everything was first class! The group isnt large at all - there were maybe 10 of us on the boat, which was something my wife an I preferred. And we were one of the few boats that were in on the crater early in morning, so it was nice to be able to snorkel without bumping into a massive amount of people. The highlights of the trip was definitely snorkeling on the back wall of the crater - a MUST see and MUST experience! Words cannot express the beauty of this experience. The last snorkeling stop was by the turtle bay and boy did we see turtles! There were turtles in every corner - it was a challenge to try an avoid them as you should give yourself at least 10 feet of space.Last but not least, the crew on the boat is definitely an A+ team! Steve and Tim (Jersey represent =)) were so fun and personable and they really go out of their way to make sure that everyone has a great time. Thank you guys for making our trip to Maui super memorable!HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

6 Stars! Our group of 8 did the Whale Watching trip AND the Snorkling Trip on consecutive days and Redline was absolutely amazing. Tim and Katie are a wonderful duo...kept it fun and light, while providing us with great information and conversation. I cant decide which of the two tours were better than the other...my recommendation is to do both! Thanks, Redline...you helped make our company trip more fun and memorable than it could have been with another tour company. Mahalo!

Amazing! Shaun and Chase did a great job throughout. They provided wet suits and loaner GoPros!. Use the GoPro all day and buy the memory card at the end if you want. The guest service was tremendous. Went to several different spots to snorkel, saw several different types of fish and many turtles. Also while at one of the sites we saw a pack of dolphins.

Totally worth the money. They provide a tasty breakfast and make your own sandwich lunch. Crew is very attentive and constantly making sure you’re having a good time, from pointing out good snorkel spots to helping you get your gear on. Spend your money here if you want to have a good time, see a lot of spots (4 different spots not close by which is nice for exploration), and swim with turtles while not worrying about a thing.

One of the best snorkeling experiences! The team were very professional and understanding. They provided brief breakfast, a good lunch and even environmental friendly sunscreen! I got seasick on the second spot, and the tour leaders helped me to get better by providing some tips like staring at a stable object ( the other islands or horizon) to get better. Since the ocean become windy in the afternoon, the tour is from 7 to noon. The four spots that they have chosen were astonishing!

We had a great experience and highly recommend Redline Rafting for snorkelling in Maui! Johnathon and Mike were really knowledgeable about the local area. They were also super helpful and attentive to everyone on the boat, which made the trip even better. The snorkelling was great at all four locations we went to. We saw dolphins, turtles and heaps of fish. It was definitely worth the early start to beat the crowds at Molokini.

This tour was for the adventurous and I loved it!We were the first ones to the Molokini Crater and had fresh fruit and hot cinnamon buns while the guys briefed us on the history and safe practices. We were in great hands and felt safe with our guides Jonathan and Mike. They filled us with knowledge and we saw turtles, whales and tonnes of fish and coral.The backside of Molokini was so neat and whales could be heard singing as we snorkelled back to the boat. Man was that neat.We snorkelled until we couldn’t snorkel any more and then had a nice lunch on the boat.Loved this tour and would do it again for sure.

Review №82

We did their snorkeling tour to Molokini and it was so much fun. We got to four snorkeling sites, the first three filled with beautiful fish and the last also filled with turtles. We rode out as the sun rose over the hills and clouds and it was just amazing. We thought the early hour would be a bummer but it was worth it. There must have been dozens of whales jumping and skimming the surface all around us. Truly amazing. We couldnt go to one of the snorkeling sites because of the rough 6-10ft waves, but the tour guides Tim and Katie made it so much fun to ride the huge waves with the boat, telling us jokes and playing really appropriate music. If youre prone to motion sickness, I suggest planning ahead with meds or other preventative measures. Also, the wind got cold on the boat (granted we did it in February) so maybe bring a towel that will surely be drenched by the end, but might be a good shield for some of the ride. Some people even brought rain shells just for that part. All in all, if youre ok with the possibility of a soaked turbulent ride, it is a whole lot of fun and Im so very glad I did it. If you want to stay on the boat, its a beautiful view and youll at least see many whales and get all of Tims fantastic dad jokes. If you want to snorkel, youll get the views, the jokes, the whales, and youll also get to see some huge and peaceful turtles and colorful fish. Definitely go for it; they are super nice people who are very good at their jobs and obviously enjoy doing it.

Awesome company which provides a great experience to its guests. Small boat so you do not feel crowded but right from the beginning you feel like you are part of their family. The crew looks after you wonderfully from the food provided to the equipment available for use. I would highly recommend doing a snorkelling tour with this company. So much fun!!!!

Nothing but 5 stars for this trip! We loved the warmth and humor of the crew, the small group size and the of course the whales! A perfect day and the weather cooperated for us, wind came down and the sun came out. Mahalo Nui!

Captain Chase and First Mate Kelly were phenom. Chase cracks jokes the whole time while being a seriously good boat captain. We booked the Molokini snorkel trip. We stopped at 4 snorkel spots on the trip. Saw loads of turtles. Enjoyed a playful ride across some fun rolling waves.

Would absolutely do again! Great hosts - Sean and Chase, great itinerary, never felt rushed, saw a good variety of settings and sealife, got to experience multiple sites! Good gear, plenty of support and good attitudes. I read about a lot of companies before choosing this one and am happy I did - The boat got to the points of interest quickly. We were well fed - nothing fancy, but I booked this to enjoy the sea, not for 5-star dining - it was tasty anyway. Would definitely recommend

After researching many snorkel tour companies decided to go with Redline due to the fact that you get up to 4 snorkel spots vs 2 and the nimbleness of their boat to go to places others can’t with the leeway to change plans based on the day. So glad I did, had the best time! Four amazing snorkel spots including the backside of Molokini that no one goes to, saw 2 kinds of dolphins feet away, heard humpback whales singing, and swam with 6 sea turtles! Seeing the marine life is hit or miss so we did get lucky, but the fact that we could change plans or go to places most boats can’t increased the chances for sure. Tour guides were so knowledgeable and friendly as well! To note, my husband was also obsessed with the lunch sandwich he crafted with their offerings saying he still thinks about it days later.

If you are looking to do a snorkel trip, definitely go with Redline Rafting! The smaller boat is nice, the water never got too crowded like it can with some of the larger tour groups. We got there before all the larger snorkel groups also which was really nice. They took us to multiple snorkel areas and at the last stop we got to swim up close with with sea turtles! Id defiantly do another trip with them!

We had an amazing time with Captain Chase and Mike! Here’s a screenshot of my TripAdvisor review with all the details, just so I don’t have to type it all out again. One more thing I’ll add is that the guys were very knowledgeable and even gave us a couple fun local tips on things to do that we would have never known about otherwise. Great tour and great guides.

Lovely guides. Visited end of January and saw dozens of whales and about half a dozen turtles. Would do again

Great experience with Redline! Much more intimate of a trip than a lot of the options on island. Chase and Katie, our fearless leaders, were great - super informative, helpful and fun. And we saw lots of great sea life!

INCREDIBLE!!!!! I am so grateful for Redline Rafting for guiding us on our first snorkel adventure. If you have never been snorkeling before, you are in good hands here! If you are not a confident swimmer, no need to worry, Redline will take care of you. They provide flotation belts for anyone who would like to use one. I definitely used one as I am NOT a swimmer. They also provide wetsuits. The first time I put my face in the water with that mask on and looked into depth of the ocean I was filled with extreme joy and delight. This tour features a number of different spots each providing their own special glimpse into the underwater scene. Truly amazing. I loved snorkeling the back of Molokini and of course swimming with the sea turtles! The coral is simply breathtaking. The color blue is just brilliant. I loved it all. Sean and Tevia were awesome!!

Great time snorkeling at 4 different spots. Chase and Mike were a great pair. Friendly, outgoing, helpful to the novice snorkelers, knowledgeable...and made the boat ride as fun as the snorkeling.

Loved this tour! The staff was fun and personal with obvious expertise of the areas we snorkeled in. Absolutely a fantastic choice if you want to snorkel in Maui. The smaller group size makes all the difference! And riding on the raft was a wonderful added bonus! Super fun!

Nice trip around to several good snorkel spots. Water was clear, saw plenty of fish, some eels and turtle. Liked the small number on the raft. Are captain and guide were friendly and entertaining. Not a trip if you are uncomfortable entering the water off the side of the raft and climbing back in on a ladder. Not a lot of help offered for that. Food was okay, nice cinnamon rolls to start. Plenty of juice and soda.

Highly recommend Redline. Had a great snorkel at Molokini. Being the first boat out at the crater was great because we had the place to ourselves for a little while. Also, snorkel on the backside was unique experience. There had been a whale shark sighting and the captain and crew told us all what to look for so that we may see the shark too. Alas, we did not. But I did see several eels, a reef shark, and a variety of fish. At turtle town I got to swim with sea turtles for an incredible life experience. There were seven turtles swimming with me at one time. Redline was a highlight of my Maui trip. I will definitely book with them again when Im back in Maui.
