Description

Take a break from the crowds of West Maui and experience the pristine waters with Makai Adventures Lanai! Their new 34 foot Centurion powerboat, Kaiao, is comfortable and spacious and features cushioned seats, shaded area, flotation gear, open deck. Please note this is not considered a "fry" vessel so be prepared for ocean spray on the crossing to / from Lanai.

As the Captain points out sites, sit back and enjoy the views as you cruise across the 'Au'Au Channel to the island of Lanai. This island boasts many of Hawaii's best coral reefs, miles of sea cliffs, remote coastlines with sea caves and arches, blowholes, ancient Hawaiian burial sites, and King Kamehameha The Great's favorite fishing grounds. Your 2-3 snorkel sites will be Captain's Choice, which means the captain will choose the best destinations based on the day's conditions, which makes each trip unique! Keep an eye out for dolphins and humpback whales above the water, and down below swim with schools of fish, Hawaiian green sea turtles, and colorful coral.

Private charters include a captain and crew member, snorkel gear, and a cooler with ice and soft drinks. Lunch is available by ordering in advance for $20 per person, or you may bring your own lunch on board. Please note that this vessel does not have a marine head / rest room on board.
