Better than working

One snorkeling spot and then back to the dock. If you’re looking for a quick day, this is your trip. Personally, I could have kept snorkeling at a few different spots. Coral gardens was kinda meh but the crew were great. Lunch was simple sandwiches with pasta salad. Can’t really complain because it is Maui. Anything is better than working.

Operator response

Mahalo, K, for pointing out that our Afternoon Snorkeling adventure is best suited for those looking for a quick three hour trip. Our Molokini Crater and Turtle Town trip is five hours and requires an early start. We hope the six of you enjoy the rest of your Maui vacation. Aloha!

Awesome experience

Variety of activities for the one and half hours in the water ... Snorkeling, slide, and jumping off the boat. We got to swim with a sea turtle, which was fabulous!

Great Trip, Great Crew, So Fun!

We loved the trip! The crew was great and we felt welcomed and comfortable the whole time. They made snorkeling so much fun with a quick tutorial, taking care of all the gear, and their knowledge of the sport. The slide was a fun bonus! The atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. They served lunch and a treat! Definitely worth the trip!

39 guests didn't match my...

39 guests didn't match my idea of a small group. Several times someone swam into me. Inflatable slide takes a long time to be ready and didn't stay available for long.

Operator response

Mahalo Vicki for your feedback. We installed a new waterslide in May and had a setup learning cure we were working through. I'm sorry that you didn't have enough time to use the waterslide, and that other snorkelers were swimming into you during your excursion. We hope the four of you had a memorable trip to Maui.

Awesome!

Boat driver Greg (he doesn’t like the term ‘captain’) was awesome! The entire crew was super nice, made everyone feel safe, and did their part to ensure we had an awesome time. Would 100% recommend this tour!!!

Operator response

Mahalo, Drew, for recommending Maui Snorkeling! We're so glad to hear that Greg and the team provided such a wonderful experience. We hope you both decide to come back and snorkel with us the next time you are in Maui. Aloha!

We had an amazing time...

We had an amazing time going to Molokini Crater on this excursion! On the ride over we saw at least 30 whales and the snorkeling there was beautiful, it felt like we were in an aquarium. The captain and crew were all amazing. I would highly recommend!

Operator response

Mahalo, Antonio, for highly recommending our Molokini Crater Snorkeling tour! It’s exhilarating to know you had such a great snorkel and whale watch adventure adventure. We're grateful for your kind words about our captain and crew—can't wait to welcome the three of you back the next time you visit Maui!

Great experience

Terrific captain and crew. I went with my two daughters HS seven and 10 and my dad. Bad Pool noodles and boogie boards that had a little viewer cut out. Lots of options for novice snorkelers and the crew was terrific at spotting turtles, etc. Great boat. Super positive and fun experience. We even saw a whale breach and had a great time snorkeling and riding the slide! Yummy snacks after. All around A+++!

Operator response

Mahalo, Liz, for bringing your daughters and dad along on our Maui Afternoon Snorkel and Slide Adventure! We're delighted your family spotted turtles and watched whales during our Afternoon Snorkel. Hearing that our captain and crew made the experience even better truly makes our day!

Great family experience!

This small boat was the perfect size to get all the TLC needed to bring multiple little kids on a snorkeling trip in the ocean. The boat captain was male but the deck crew was two young ladies and the were the best I’d ever had. Very great experience.

Operator response

Aloha Tonia, mahalo for sharing your wonderful feedback! We’re so glad you and your party enjoyed your time aboard our smaller, more personalized boat—especially with your little ones. It’s heartwarming to hear our captain and deck crew made your experience both safe and memorable. We truly appreciate your kind words and the recognition for our team. We hope to welcome you all back for another adventure soon. Mahalo for choosing Maui Snorkeling!
