Not recommended for pregnant travelers.
Turtlely Cool!… Departing Molokini, we’ll make one more stop and snorkel with sea turtles in a shorline destination (locations will vary, depending on conditions). These turtles, although endangered and protected, are accustomed to seeing snorkelers and do not mind being photographed as they surface for air just a few feet away.
Experience Molokini without interruption from large tour boats or over-crowded snorkel sites. Trip includes 3 hours of fun, with at least two stops. Snorkel Molokini and an additional shoreline snorkel at a turtle habitat.
During whale season, we will always stop and see some whales.
This tour goes out daily because it is a customer favorite since 1985.
Not intended for guests who are pregnant.
Not intended for guests under 4 years old.
Not intended for those with neck or back injuries.

Stunning underwater views
Early morning start with Angela and our captain Joey. Off we went to swim with some turtles. Very calm waters and several turtle viewings. Then over to Molikuni. The water was a little more choppy here but wow the views underwater. As clear as being in a fish tank and the water so blue. Lots of fish to see and the trigger fish swim right up to you.
Friendly on board. Sandwiches, fruit and soda available and very helpful if you are not the most confident. Would recommend this experience on Maui. The trio is over by 10am so you have the rest of the day ahead.

Great snorkeling trip
Great trip with Captain Alex and guide Angela. The early departure let us beat the crowds at Molokini crater. Stops to snorkel on Molokini backside and Turtle Town made for a full experience of these waters.

Turtles were awesome. Must book!
Our family really enjoyed our outing today with Alex and Bellin. We stopped by to see the turtles before heading to Molokini. This was great because we were the only boat in the cove and there were several turtles. Molokini had great visibility but of course there were lots of boats there. Even though they gave great instructions, one of the group strayed and Alex was none too pleased. They want to keep everyone safe. Please pay attention to their briefing! Would definitely recommend. My son who usually gets motion sickness did fine.

Worth the early wake-up time!
Angela and Joey were great! They made sure we went to areas that there weren’t a lot of people and boats. The snorkeling was great! Boat ride was quick and uneventful. The tour group was small which we appreciated.

Highly recommended
The entire family thoroughly enjoyed this tour - the crew was super knowledgeable, friendly and always up for a laugh! They first took us to snorkel over turtle-infested waters for some real close up experiences, before setting off to Molokini - navigating away from the other boats. This place truly feels like an aquarium, with deep blue water and fish aplenty. Simply amazing.

Amazing experience
Such a fun and amazing trip. Kanoe and Angela were funny, professional and incredibly friendly. Our kids had such a great time and said it was their favorite part of our trip to Maui. The views were beautiful and the spots they took us to had amazing sea life. Thank you for such a memorable trip.
