Specifications:

An underwater finger of reef extends the half-circle you see above water by another quarter of the circular crater. At the end of that submerged reef is an area aptly named: Reef's End. The reef ends in a series of stair steps that extend from 10 feet below the surface to approx. 350 feet.

Here we often see baby White Tip Reef sharks (and their mothers...), occasional Grey Sharks, lobsters, a variety of eels, antler coral and what we have dubbed, "The Galaxy of Fish"—From Raccoon Butterflies to Damsel fish, schools of Pennent Fish, Moorish Idols and Blue-stripped Snappers... Majestic Manta Rays often come to Molokini to feed, and dolphins, both Spinner and Bottlenose are often spotted here.

This dive is reserved for our certified divers with a dive profile of approx. 85 feet for 30 minutes. During whale season (Late Dec. through April) you are almost guaranteed to see the awe-inspiring Humpback Whales as they enjoy their winter vacation in Maui's warm waters.
