The Kaunakakai Boat Ramp provides access to the Pacific Ocean on the south shore of Molokai. This harbor serves as both a recreational and commercial facility, with a boat launching ramp, mooring areas, and a dinghy dock.
For paddlers, the ramp offers a convenient entry point to explore the open waters around Molokai. Kayakers and canoeists should be aware of the ocean conditions, which can vary significantly depending on wind, waves, and swells. The harbor is located near the town of Kaunakakai, providing easy access to supplies and amenities.
Power boaters will find the ramp well-suited for launching a wide range of vessels. There is ample parking available at the Molokai Pier and Boat Harbor complex. When launching or retrieving your boat, be mindful of the commercial barge dock and the green "C5" buoy, which mark the boundaries of the safe maneuvering area.
