2.00Viator never informed us the tour co. Had canceled the tour due to weather, we showed 30 before the departure time when we were informed the trip was canceled due to the weather. We scheduled our whole day around this trip and booked this tour days in advance. Then we had to call to figure out the refund process.
Amazing Time!!!

5.00Very fun 3 hour cruise with the Malolo crew to Coral Gardens. Too windy to make it to Molokini, quick tip, they say to book a morning cruise to get there, but the snorkeling was beautiful at coral Gardens. The crew was fun, friendly and made sure everyone was safe and had a good time!
First timer super happy

1.00Didn’t get to snorkel at all because of the weather not really their fault. But I guess the boat ride was okay

4.00It was very windy so it was disappointing that we didn’t get to go to Molikini. The coral gardens were nice but we had already snorkeled in a coral area and saw many of the same sea life. But I would still recommend the trip.
Waste of money

1.00Couldn’t go to Molokini because it was “too far away with the waves / wind” so we went to Coral Gardens where we saw a total of 20 fish (all black basic fish). I’d suggest skipping this and just find your own coral on almost any beach on Maui and you’ll see way more for free.
Enjoyable
