BLUE WATER RAFTING HAS ACHIEVED A TRIPADVISOR RATING OF CERTIFICATE OF EXCELLENCE BY ITS GUESTS AND THEREFORE HAS BEEN AWARDED A Five hundred years ago the south-facing slope of Haleakala was exploding. Rivers of molten lava from fountaining vents rushed to the sea. The quantity of lava from these vents was so great that it pushed its way out into the ocean, forming new land. The cooling effects of water against hot lava resulted in exquisite patterns and shapes — pinnacles jutting out of the water, caves, arches, and grottos — art created by nature that man has yet to rival. For years, most maps did not identify the Kanaio Coast, which was inaccessible to most. To date, except for a small number of fishermen and divers who know how plentiful the marine life is there, most Mauians are still unfamiliar with the Kanaio Coast. In 1987, Blue Water Rafting put Kanaio on the maps MAUI'S AMAZING KANAIO COAST Where Man has yet to Build a Road of the several visitor publications in which it advertised. Today, Blue Water Rafting has taken over 500,000 people on a journey back in time to view one of the last uninhabited coastlines on Maui. Snorkeling and raing tours to the Kanaio Coast and Molokini are offered daily, leaving at 7am. During whale watch season, Blue Water offers amazing whale watching adventures. Raers are advised to prepare for an adventurous ride. Rigid hulled twin powered inflatables are utilized for their seaworthiness and tight maneuverability around the lava formations and near the various caves. Depending on conditions, a variety of sites are available for snorkeling. When winds are light and variable or blowing strongly out of the north, Kanaio is the best place for calm clear water. If trades are out of the east or northeast, La Perouse Bay offers protection from the wind and is one of the favorite hangouts of spinner dolphins. In season, whales abound and sea turtle habitats are a regular snorkeling stop along the South Maui shore. Wherever you go with Blue Water, you'll have the time of your life. Perhaps that's why so many people have given Blue Water five star reviews on Tripadvisor.
