This was a great trip. The boat was comfortable and the captain and crew were exceptional! The breakfast and lunch was great and they provided everything we needed for a great time. To me, what made the experience exceptional was the friendly crew along with all that they provided with the experience

Explore the natural wonders of Molokini Crater, a volcanic islet 3 miles (4.8 km) off the coast of Maui, on this snorkeling tour from Maalaea. Surrounded by clear tropical waters, this extinct cone is home to many species of marine life, such as fish, sea urchins, sharks, manta rays, and coral. Molokini is a marine preserve, meaning nothing can be disturbed, keeping the island and underwater environment pristine. You'll also explore Turtle Town, and admire native birds. Two water slides, a glass bottom viewing room, and a "leap of faith" are also available if you don't want to snorkel or finish early. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, soda, and juice are included.

From start to finish a wonderful experience. Warm welcome. To Whale sightings and calm water for snorkling. The crew treats you like Ohana and you feel it. The equipment, instruction and even the food provided is top notch. Fun slides and a diving platform to enjoy too. The main attraction is snorkeling at Molokini crater. We didn't get to swim with sea turtles due to unclear water conditions but enjoyed whale watching instead and saw quite a few. A wonderful crew to spend half a day with.

The crew members were very attentive and helpful to everyone onboard. There were multiple sightings of humpback whales. The captain was very nice to stop on every sighting. The boat was clean and equipped with everything we need. We had ample time to snorkel and had a great time. Thanks.

We had a great time on this trip! Staff was very friendly and food was good! Lots of fruits and veggies and good sandwich’s, they walk around to see if you needed anything. Felt very well taken care of! Also, we stayed in Kaanapali beach and it was an easy 30 min uber drive over in the morning and back in the afternoon. We had originally booked a trip for one of the boats that goes out directly from Kaanapali beach but they cancelled on us last minute the day before because they are not always allowed to pick up at the beach say if there is slightly rougher waters. We had to switch to this one the day before but it was easy to get set up with this one and they don’t cancel last minute because the pickup at Maalaea Harbor is an actual boat docking location. Another thing to note on our specific day out on the boat it was a bit rougher waters (still pretty smooth on this big boat) so we weren’t able to go to Turtle town that day but instead they took us whale watching and we saw lots of whales! Also they offered free 3 alcoholic drinks also. Very nice and we felt we got the full experience on this trip!
