Imagine 200 spinner dolphins putting on a show just for you. Imagine swimming right beside Hawaiian green sea turtles. Imagine seeing a mother humpback whale and her newborn calf. Imagine enjoying majestic Maui and the deep blue sea. Imagine no more. Climb aboard an ocean raft for a thrilling ride across one of Maui County's channels, and you'll find a snorkeler's heaven. Whether it's the island of Lanai, Molokai, or even Maui, you will be hard pressed to find a more exquisite example of paradise. Captain Steve's two hard bottom inflatable vessels can get you there faster than all the rest. Waste no time in discovering the secrets of the reef and playing with dolphins, humpback whales, turtles and rays. There is no telling what we might encounter on any given day. No two trips are alike, and that's probably what keeps the captains and crew so friendly and accommodating. They are as excited about going to work as the guests are about going on a Maui rafting adventure! Constantly in search of the "Perfect Day" of snorkeling or whale watching, Captain Steve and his crew will stop at nothing to ensure unparalleled service and quality. Getting there is half the fun on our two custom built hard-bottom inflatable vessels, originally designed for Search & Rescue by the United States Coast Guard. Canefire I and Canefire II are both powered by twin smokeless engines and have 50% shade cover. Canefire I is USCG certified for 24 passengers, but we usually limit it to 20 for comfort. Canefire II is USCG certified for 37 passengers, but we usually limit it to 30 for comfort. Both have bench seating with backrests. For the more adventurous, riding on the pontoons gets you the closest to the water and the sea life, and riding in the bow in the "Dolphin Seat" can be thrilling! With the extra personal attention of a small group and the removal of restrictions commonly associated with large groups, this trip is perfect for first-time snorkelers and advanced snorkelers alike. No one does it better than Captain Steve's Rafting!
