Captain Steve's Rafting Adventures

Captain Steve's Rafting Adventures Waste no time in discovering the secrets of the reef and playing with dolphins, whales, turtles and more! Whales are our specialty! Imagine no more.

Captain Steve's is no ka oi (the best)! 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. Climb aboard an ocean raft for a thrilling ride across one of Maui County's channels, and you'll find a snorkeler's heaven. Wh

ether 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.

Cheers to 2025! 🥂

Merry Merry!

The rainbow kept coming in and then fading. This was the best I got of a breach in front of the rainbow!

Lots going on in Hawaii between the Eddie surf tournament yesterday, the high surf, the whales, and the new Kilauea eruption! Oh yes, and Christmas! Merry Christmas Eve's Eve!

Kīlauea volcano began erupting within the summit caldera at approximately 2:20 a.m. HST this morning, Dec. 23, 2024, following an increase in seismicity that began beneath the summit just a half hour earlier, at approximately 2 a.m. HST. Multiple fountaining sources are erupting lava flows on the b...

Breaches, moms and calves, pec slapping, tail slapping, competition, it's all out there! What a great start to the season!

Interesting.

The burps, barks and snorts humpback whales make when asking their mother for milk are the first recorded instances of begginglike behavior in a baleen whale

Mom and brand new baby!
Epic encounter dream day!

Hawaii Ocean Rafting “Very new baby whale got curious and came up to our boat, mama is bigger than our little raft and wow how about this amazing weather we are having!!
It’s important to know whales are federally protected in Hawai’i so we do not approach them, we have to wait for them to approach our boats just like this little one decided to do, making these encounters even more special!

Who watched the ESPYs tonight? This was totally unexpected to us as we watched. We actually sat next to Kai Lenny’s wife Molly recently on a plane. She went to Lahainaluna with Captain Steve’s son. The one year anniversary of the fire is coming up so lots of expected media coverage but sometimes these unexpected moments are emotional. Yes there is a fire upcountry today near the road to Haleakala National Park but it is not threatening homes right now. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Of course we loved this part of the Lahainaluna graduation ceremony. Here is a link to the entire graduation ceremony. Skip to 2 hours and 23 minutes in to see the drone show. It's well worth it! https://www.youtube.com/live/Ms0v8WuKQog
