Due to weather we were not able to go to Lanai but instead went up above Kapalua. Nice calm bay with lots of marine life. I loved that we had an all female crew. Our captain was awesome and gave history of the islands.

Emma and Shannon made it...

Mikaela_D, Aug 2023

Emma and Shannon made it a very personal and enjoyable experience. They were both very knowledgeable of the area and oceanic wild life. We saw a dolphin pod and numerous turtles as well as a great number of fish in the reef whilst we were snorkelling. Overall it was a great day and fun experience and I can’t wait to return and do it again!

Definitely Book this Boat!

Thank you!

Great snorkeling day

Valerie_A, Jul 2023

Captain Lily and first mate Lexi were fantastic. We had a perfect day, great music along the way and Captain Lily shared details about the island we would be snorkeling near. An intimate group which made the experience that much more memorable.

Great tour

Suzanne_A, Jul 2023

Cap Chad and Lexi were awesome tour guides. Showed us more turtles in one place than we’ve ever seen, also two sharks. The pontoon was very cozy and shady. Would do this tour again! Aloha till our next trip to beautiful Maui!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thanks so much!

Turtles and Dolphins- yes please!

LeAnn_P, Jul 2023

We booked this trip because it offered an opportunity to snorkel with turtles as well as beautiful fish, with a good chance of seeing dolphins. This did not disappoint! Not only did we snorkel with turtles - there were scores and scores of them of all shapes and sizes! What an amazing treat! Then when we headed to Lana’i there was a “pod” of spinner dolphins- but the pod must have had at least 50 in it’s group! Such a magical trip!

Amazing

Lisa_V, Jul 2023

The under water man made reef where the turtles congregate to get their shells cleaned by fish was amazing. I saw at least a dozen turtles big and small. It was fascinating to see how the ruins of the pier became absorbed by nature.

Fun activity with lots of fresh air.

Michael_C, Jul 2023

Relaxing day. Guides took care of us and were very attentive. Snorkeling was great and lots of sea life. Be prepared to pay for parking.

Thank you!

Had a blast! Best day of our Maui trip

James_K, Jul 2023

Amazing, insider insights on best snorkel sights from expert Cruise captain. Just the right amount of time to explore two reefs, and enough space to rest on the boat. They were really knowledgeable about the waters and we all had a great time!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thanks so much!

Amazing experience

LoganV, Jul 2023

We went out and saw much more than we bargained for. We saw lots of turtles and reef sharks that were at a distance so it was not scary(which I am terrified of sharks). Haha. I would highly recommend

This trip was our favorite snorkel adventure ever!

Lori_W, Jul 2023

We have gone on many snorkel boat outings and this was our favorite! Casey and Emma were the BEST guides! They took great care of everyone, called everyone by their first name the entire trip, rocked awesome tunes and were good stewards of the ocean (picked up nets and other trash a couple of times). We saw awesome marine life including spinner dolphins, fish, and tons of turtles. Would recommend this trip to everyone!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you!

An amazing experience

Dovid_B, Jul 2023

We had an amazing time! Emma and Casey were so helpful and nice and we saw so much wildlife! We saw dozens of dolphins, swam with turtles, and had fun on the boat with the rest of the tour. They even brought homemade cookies as a treat for everyone, besides the regular food. Highly highly recommend

A once in a lifetime trip!

Travis_D, Jul 2023

Spectacular and marvelous! The guides did a great job and I highly recommend this trip for anyone who wants an unique Maui snorkeling experience. We also saw a pod of hundreds of spinner dolphins. The snacks were great too!

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you!

Beautiful trip

LauriAnne_F, Jul 2023

The captain and her assistant were really nice and included me since I was a solo traveller. They brought us to two great snorkeling spots where we could enjoy the reef and marine life. We encountered dolphins at the end of the trip and it was spectacular ! It was on a zodiac boat.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thanks so much!

Our best day in Maui

Wayne_D, Jul 2023

Lilly and Casey were great! On the ride to Lania we saw a huge pod of spinner dolphins. At Lanai we saw amazing fish, and even spotted a lobster and a cowrie shell. When we got back to Maui in our second snorkeling spot we saw seven sea turtles. The snacks were wonderfully fresh and really hit the spot. This was our BEST day in Maui. We HIGHLY recommend it.

Fun For All Ages & Abilities!

Christina_R, Jun 2023

Emma was an amazing Captain and made us all feel safe and taught us a ton. She went out of her way to make our 5 year-old, non-snorkeler feel engaged and happy. Casey was super caring for the older members of our party and helped to meet all of our needs. We all had a great time and saw tons of fish and turtles!

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thanks for choosing us for your snorkeling adventure!

An excellent experience!

Emily_L, Jun 2023

Jill and Lexi were excellent! Directions were clear and engaging. We snorkeled two locations and both were beautiful.
