it was a good time...
Sandra_V, October 2026
it was a good time although we couldn't see the turtles because we had to change the snorkeling place due to weather. but we saw lots of beautiful fish. The only bummer was the the 'photographer' totally missed our family. took pictures of every other family. but that's ok...the packages were outrageously priced = wouldn't have purchased anyway

Incredible Crew Leads to Incredible Experiences
Jeffrey_B, October 2026
The parking in the Marina can put you very close to the Malibu Snorkeling kiosk. Just keep going toward where their slip is and you can find parking within 100 yards. We parked on the opposite side of the marina and could have saved a little time.
The crew was incredible. We have done hundreds of "shore" type excursions from cruises and all inclusive resorts. This experience is easily in our top 2-3!!! I would do it again and again... food was ok... nothing to get excited about, but the Aloha spirit of the crew is why you want to go with this outfit.
Response from the operator · Mario N Mahalo, Jeffrey, for rating our Molokini Crater snorkeling experience one of your top 3! We're thrilled to hear that the Maui Snorkeling crew made such a positive impression and that your experience. We appreciate your comments about parking and hope the four of you will join us again for another great adventure! A hui hou!

Molokini crater is worth the time
Eugene_M, October 2026
Excellent boat crew and fantastic snorkeling . We saw a pod of spinner dolphins on the way back that kept chasing the boat. Awesome experience.
Response from the operator · Mario N Aloha, Eugene! We're so happy to hear that you had an excellent time on our Molokini Crater & Turtle Town Snorkel and Slide Adventure. Seeing spinner dolphins is an incredible highlight. Mahalo for your kind words! We hope the both of you enjoy the rest of your Maui vacation. A hui hou!

Good experience but not enough breakfast snacks.
Jon_H, October 2026
Basic food , for lunch sandwiches and pasta salad. We received no breakfast snacks because they ran out very early. Parking is expensive and limited. Great people however and safe experience.
Response from the operator · Mario N Aloha Jon. Mahalo for your kind words about the crew. We're sorry about running out of breakfast pastries on the morning of your trip. We instructed our caterer to increase our portion sizes since the current assortment is more popular than we expected. Unfortunately, we can't influence public parking availability or parking cost per hour. It will cost $6 per vehicle for 6 hours of parking.
