Capt. Steve's Rafting
Do you want to have an encounter with dolphins on this vacation? Unfortunately, there are no trips that guarantee dolphin sightings in the wild. However, there are some trips that we recommend to try and see dolphins because they have encounters on a regular basis. One of these trips is with Captain Steves Rafting. Captain Steves is a small family operation that departs the Mala boat ramp in Lahaina for the island of Lanai aboard their zodiac style speedboats. The waters surrounding the island of Lanai are an area that is known for its resident dolphins. Dolphins, unlike whales do not migrate across the oceans. They are more territorial and tend to reside in the same areas year round. In my experience I’ve encountered dolphins on about eight out of ten of the Lanai trips I’ve been on. The really exciting part about encountering dolphins in the wild is that they travel in groups called “pods”. These “pods” consist of large amounts of dolphins frequently reaching numbers of over a hundred and are quite a spectacle to witness first hand.…
| Description: Three and a half hour snorkel trip includes all snorkel gear, healthy snacks and beverages. Travel in an extremely fast zodiac raft. These boats tend to offer a more adventurous ride then the larger boats. However, the ride is a bit rougher. Snorkel destination is Captains choice. Not available during whale season.
