Leisurely is the word when it comes to Molokai. It is quiet. Very quiet. Or at least it was. It's been quite some time since I last visited, about 20 years since.
I would highly recommend hiking around Halawa Valley on the east end. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halawa,_Molokai
Did the mule ride down to Kalaupapa. I'm not so keen on heights so I'd prefer to hike the trail on foot if I were to go again. Very scenic. Important history.
I recall murky water along the south coast. Far better swimming and beachgoing along the beautiful long beaches on the west shore as I remember. Though the waters can get pretty rough and wild there, so use caution if the surf is up.
