{"id":7054,"date":"2026-09-20T06:47:04","date_gmt":"2026-09-20T05:47:04","guid":{"rendered":"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/highlights\/molokai-sea-cliffs\/"},"modified":"2026-09-20T06:47:04","modified_gmt":"2026-09-20T05:47:04","slug":"molokai-sea-cliffs","status":"publish","type":"highlights","link":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/highlights\/molokai-sea-cliffs\/","title":{"rendered":"Molokai sea cliffs"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">See the Molokai sea cliffs from the air \u2014 walls that drop 3,600 to 3,900 feet into the water, rainforest and waterfalls on the north shore, a crossing of the Pailolo Channel from West Maui. From a Maui overlook you get a distant edge. From the helicopter the cliffs are a face, and the valleys open under the skids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three <a href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/zh-hans\/maui\/\">Maui<\/a> flights are built around this crossing: the 45-minute West Maui and Molokai tour, the doors-off version of that route, and the 75-minute oceanfront-landing event. All three fly the <a href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/zh-hans\/highlights\/west-maui-mountains\/\">West Maui Mountains<\/a>, then the channel, then Molokai\u2019s north shore. The 30-minute Birds Eye View stays on Maui\u2019s west coast. The 45-minute Hana and Haleakal\u0101 tour stays east. The 60-minute Complete Island is East and West Maui; you may see Molokai from the west coast, but that listing is not the channel crossing to the cliffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You do not land on Molokai on these tickets. The <a href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/zh-hans\/highlights\/oceanfront-landing\/\">oceanfront landing<\/a> is a private pad on Maui\u2019s north shore, on the way home. You look at the cliffs from the air, then you fly back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The extra over the Birds Eye View is this other island. Doors-off is the same cliffs with the doors off, not more of Molokai. The landing event is the same west-and-Molokai air time plus a stop on Maui. Stay on the 45-minute doors-on west tour if the cliffs are the point and you want the doors on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hawaii\u2019s other big cliff wall on this site is the <a href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/zh-hans\/highlights\/na-pali-coast\/\">N\u0101 Pali Coast<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/127.0.0.1\/zh-hans\/%e5%8f%af%e7%88%b1%e5%b2%9b\/\">Kauai<\/a> \u2014 a different island, a different hub. These Maui listings do not fly Kauai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Shared cabin, six passengers. On the doors-off listing only a phone is allowed for photos, on a lanyard. Whales in the channel are a winter maybe, not a promise. Cloud on the north shore can hide a valley; the pilot flies the weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Book the 45-minute West Maui and Molokai tour and see the Molokai sea cliffs from the air.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"class_list":["post-7054","highlights","type-highlights","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":{"sub_title":"","location":6530},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights\/7054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/highlights"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/highlights"}],"acf:post":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6530"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flyovertheworld.com\/zh-hans\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
