3.00The crew was wonderful but there were too many people on the boat. There were 65 people ont the boat and 50. Would have been more comfortable. No room to move around the boat. Also they miscounted passengers and we had to back to port any remove 2 people making our trip 90 minutes late back to the dock.

5.00This experience is amazing for families, children and elders. They are very careful and accommodate to your needs. They manage different levels of swimmers so you can go as far as you are able to. If I come back, I will look for them because is one of the best services I’ve had. Plus you enjoy food, drinks and a great environment. The photographer is awesome. It is 5/5

5.00Perfect trip. Perfect crew. Perfect weather. Incredible views, and the snorkeling was absolutely sensational. We were truly impressed and so pleased with this one-of-a-kind experience. As an extra bonus, we were lucky enough to witness a mother and baby whale bonding — unforgettable. Thank you… worth every penny.
Great Afternoon

5.00The four hour trip was amazing. We saw tons of whales. The crater itself was a bust, not worth snorkeling. This was the cheapest and the best we’ve done every time we’ve been on Maui.
Great Value and Experience

5.00Very pleasant adventure. The boat was very nice, snorkeling equipment mostly new and of good quality, and the staff was attentive and friendly. In fact, they even went almost an hour over to treat everyone to whale activity near our boat. Also, a simple but plentiful lunch.
Great value, Molokini...
