Great trip unique spots w great lunch
lisapU4458TK, October 2026
We did 5 hour trip. Each snorkeling spot was unique with something different to offer. Guides did their very best to provide a great experience. Not a large group which made for a more personal experience. Turtles were very curious and just floating around watching us. Lots of unique fish to see. Lunch was provided and it was delicious. From start to finish 5 star treatment. Bother guides did an excellent job.

This was a great tour....
Angelica_V, September 2026
This was a great tour. There were 4 snorkeling stops and we were never rushed at any of them. Our captain, Kaika, was extremely informative giving us information about each area we stopped at and the surrounding Maui area. Molokini is the highlight of course, clear blue waters and going to the back wall was a bonus! The light breakfast and lunch was perfect! Highly recommend this tour!!

A must do!
LaniJ56, September 2026
What fun! This a must do tour if you love the ocean and views. The boat ride is an adventure and fun for all ages. Our guides, Chase and Jake were engaging, informative and helpful. There were a couple of guests on our boat not feeling well due to the motion and the guides were both very accommodating; the best!! They also tried to get us where we could see the most marine life with the conditions and our time frame. A shout out to the music playlist as well!
