Snorkeling Maui Magic Adventure: cratere Molokini e sosta per tartarughe
Descrizione
Il design unico della Maui Magic consente l'accesso a destinazioni che altre barche non sono in grado di raggiungere. Il Maui Magic esplora le acque costiere intorno a South Maui, nelle Hawaii, permettendoti di vedere bellissimi pesci tropicali, coralli colorati, delfini stenella e tursiopi, tartarughe marine verdi e persino megattere stagionali! Lungo la strada, esplorerai la spettacolare costa di Maui, raggiunta solo da poche barche! Cogli l'occasione di osservare le delfini stenella e i delfini tursiopi del Pacifico cavalcare lungo la barca (quando Madre Natura lo consente). Scegliamo anche un secondo spot dove spesso è possibile fare snorkeling con le tartarughe. ."

Fantastic !!! Not a large crowded experience. Crew were fantastic, very accommodating and kind. A definite top notch experience.
Mahalo for the 5-stars!
Friendly staff very attentive, food was great ! Would highly recommend for families with younger children
Mahalo for the recommendation!
Overall the experience was great! The crew provided guidance on where to go to have the best experience. They even stopped when a pair of dolphins passed by our boat! The tour flew by and had a good amount of breaks between snorkeling spots. We were lucky to be able to see 4 turtles at the same time! The food was also very good. The pork tacos were delicious and you can't beat an open bar plus a chocolate chip cookie for dessert.
Mahalo for the wonderful review!
My fiance and I truly enjoyed snorkeling with Maui Magic. We wanted something relaxing and more intimate. It was maybe 40-50 people on the trip, but the boat with two decks felt so spacious that it didn’t feel like so many people. I booked this specifically to do Molokini crater, but sadly due to wind conditions, we had to divert and went to Coral Gardens instead. The captain tried to take us to Molokini crater to see the conditions himself, which I appreciated it. All of the boats that day also had to divert away from it. It turned out to be one of THE best experiences. We went to a spot where we saw familiesssss of turtles, so many fish and such a vast reef. The crew was friendly and informative. They were so protective to get us food and drinks, which were all delicious. They had snorkeling gear for us, even wet suit jackets for renting. I’m bummed out we didn’t get to go to Molokini BUT this was one of the best experiences during our first trip to Maui.
Mahalo for your 5-star review! We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your time at Coral Gardens and had the chance to see so many turtles. We know it's always disappointing when we're unable to make it to Molokini, but your safety is always our top priority. We truly appreciate your understanding and are glad our captain took the time to assess the conditions firsthand before making the decision to head to Coral Gardens, just like the other boats that day. It means so much to hear that your tour was one of the highlights of your first trip to Maui. We're thrilled you enjoyed the spacious boat, our friendly crew, the snorkeling, and the food and drinks. We hope we'll have the opportunity to welcome you back someday soon!
The crew and overall experience were excellent! We saw turtles, sharks, and plenty of other marine life. Everything you’d hope to see on a trip like this. The lunch spread was fantastic, with fish and pork tacos, hot dogs, and plenty of options for everyone. They do charge $10 for a wet suit rental that you probably don't need if you are a decent swimmer. Unfortunately, our day ended on a disappointing note. When we returned to the dock, our rental car had been towed. I had THOUHT had paid for parking in full, but the parking app was confusing, it said additional hours were included, but apparently it was an hour short on my time. The result was an unexpected tow, followed by an hour-and-a-half ordeal, a $35 Uber ride, and $180 to retrieve the car. Hey, at least I got to see a part of Maui I never thought I'd see! Apparently this is a common occurrence. The tow people knew exactly what my mistake was on the app (it was either the hours or putting down the wrong license plate), and the Maui Magic crew was familiar with the process as well. Even the uber driver had taken multiple people from that harbor, to the tow yard multiple times before. After spending nearly $1,000 for a family of four, it put a real damper on what otherwise would have been an amazing experience. Parking is part of the overall Maui Magic experience, and I think they should consider working with a different company to manage the parking lot or perhaps moving marinas. The excursion itself was outstanding, but the parking situation left us with a frustrating final impression. After my review on Viator, the company reached out and said they had tried everything with the parking company. They asked me to reach out to the parking facility to complain, I'm not even sure how to look up a a parking management facility to do that. Outside of a refund of my out of pocket expenses I'm not sure what else they can do. I read all of the reviews before I booked, so hoping I can save someone from the towing experience that I had!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. It sounds like you enjoyed everything that was within our control, and we're thrilled to hear that you had an excellent day on the water, saw turtles, sharks, and other marine life, and enjoyed our crew and lunch offerings. We do want to clarify that the parking lot at Maʻalaea Harbor is owned and managed by Secure Parking Hawaii and has no affiliation or ties to our company. We understand how frustrating your situation was, and unfortunately, we have no authority over their parking policies, enforcement, towing decisions, or the functionality of their payment app. That said, we do everything we can to help guests avoid these situations. Parking information is provided on our website, in our confirmation emails, announced before departure, and there are signs posted throughout the harbor. We have also expressed our concerns directly to Secure Parking Hawaii regarding guest experiences similar to yours. Because your review describes an outstanding snorkel trip and exceptional service from our crew, we would sincerely appreciate if you would consider updating your rating to better reflect the experience you had with our business rather than with a completely separate company that manages the harbor parking. We believe your review accurately highlights how wonderful the day was on the water, and we'd love for your rating to reflect that experience. Mahalo, Nikki
The crew and experience were excellent! We turtles, sharks, and everything else you would hope to see on a trip like this. They had an incredible lunch spread with fish and pork tacos as well as hot dogs. When we returned to the doc, our rental car was gone! I had THOUGHT I had paid for it all, but the app was misleading, and I was an hour short of what I needed and they towed me. An hour and a half later, a $35 uber and $180 to get the car out, we weren’t really feeling the Aloha spirit! After paying nearly $1000 for a family of four, it was a real damper on what would have been an awesome experience. Parking is part of the full Maui Magic experience, and I think they should consider hiring another company to manage their parking lot.
Thank you for your review. We are truly glad to hear that you had an excellent time with our crew and enjoyed seeing all the marine life. It sounds like the snorkeling experience itself was everything you had hoped for, and we appreciate you sharing that. We would like to respectfully clarify that the parking lot is owned and operated by Secure Parking Hawaii and is not owned, operated, or managed by our company, and we have absolutely no control over parking enforcement, payment systems, or towing policies. We understand how frustrating it must have been to discover your rental car had been towed, and we certainly sympathize with the inconvenience and unexpected expense. Because parking concerns can impact our guests' experience, we make every effort to inform visitors in advance through our confirmation emails, text messages, website, and pre-arrival information. Unfortunately, despite these reminders, we are unable to influence the parking company's operations or decisions. Given that your review clearly states that the crew, tour, wildlife encounters, and overall excursion were excellent, we would greatly appreciate it if you would consider updating your review to reflect that the parking issue was related to the independently operated parking facility rather than our business and consider that also in the rating given. Online reviews have a significant impact on small local businesses, and we would be grateful if the rating accurately reflected your experience with the tour itself. Thank you again for joining us!
Ok y’all, this is one of the best snorkel boat trips we’ve been on in Hawaii! And we’ve done several of them :) -two locations for snorkeling, including Molokini Crater and another stop where I literally saw the biggest sea turtle of my life -brand new boat, very clean with plenty of seating -the number of people on the boat was perfect (about 45 the morning we went out), so much better than the big overcrowded boat tours -jump right off the boat, take the ladder, or ride the fun slide (kids loved this part) into the ocean -solid quality snorkel gear provided -breakfast and lunch are included (super big foodie and the taco bar at lunch was very yummy) -after you’ve finished snorkeling the bar is open and drinks are included! -staff members walked around with a tray of freshly made mai tais before we went back to shore -knowledgeable captain -really friendly, helpful staff members -kid friendly (ours are ages 6 and 8 and had a blast) - 10/10 highly recommended! Worth every penny!
Mahalo for taking the time to write such a detailed review! We love hearing our guests feedback and we are so happy that you enjoyed your trip on the Maui Magic. We hope we get to see you again soon!

Mahalo for your review! We are thrilled to hear you had a great time snorkeling with is on the Maui Magic and we hope to see you again!
Our daughter recommended Maui Magic and we couldn't have been more pleased. The crew was great and responsive to the conditions we faced - quickly adapting to the improved conditions when things looked iffy. It was a complete experience.
Thank you for sharing about your recent tour with us! We greatly appreciate the 5-stars. Mahalo!
Very safety conscious, very attentive. A little more info. On dive sites and marine life would have been great. Good food/drinks.
Mahalo for your review!
