Amazing trip! Scenery, incredible, amazing seeing the other Hawaii islands. We snorkeled at shark fin pointe which was spot on!

The snorkeling was great. The food and drinks were, too. The wind made our trip a bit bumpy going through the channel, but our captain and crew did everything they could to make it better. Highly recommend this provider.

Captain Kevin and crew Jess and Dustin were great hosts, had so much knowledge about the area, the wildlife and the progress in Lahaina. The breakfast and lunch were delicious! Drinks a big plus! We really felt taken care of on this sail/snorkle tour! Thanks Jess, Dustin and Captain Kevin

We had perfect weather, perfect water conditions and a fantastic captain and crew. We were honored to sail out of Lahaina and see the slow but sure progress of restoration. The parking and meetup was so easy and convenient. Although late in the season, we saw a few whales on the outbound trip to Lanai, which is always exciting. The captain found a spot near Lanai that had a nice reef and lots of fish. The second stop focused on turtles, and there were many. After hoisting the sails, we enjoyed a delicious lunch and drinks. The food was plentiful and excellent, especially the warm cookies. Generous offerings of cocktails including Mai Tai and Margaritas, in addition beer and wine or non alcoholic options like pineapple juice and POG. We liked the length of this trip and the reasonable hour of departure. This is our second trip with Sail Maui and we highly recommend them.

We have been taking trips on Sail Maui's boats most every year since 2010. What impressed me the most over the years, including this year, were the unfailingly polite, professional and helpful crews we had each and every time. The food is top-notch as well. On our latest trip this year they served croissants, muffins and orange slices when we set sail, soft drinks, juice and coffee anytime and a very nice hot lunch. This year our trip was to the other side of Lanai, where there was beautiful, clear water and abundant sea life. I would recommend all the other trips as well. Can't wait to sail with them again next year!

Beautiful day on the water, the snorkel spot off the coast of Lanai was excellent. Tons of fish and live coral with clear water! The crew was friendly and very knowledgeable. Great trip!

This was an excellent Maui snorkel tour. The Maui Sail captain was very knowledgeable on locations of good snorkeling near Lanai. We snorkeled two spots, both of which were fantastic! The crew was very good too. Enjoyed the food and after snorkel Maui Tai. I will go out with them again!

Despite some rainy weather the days before, we made it over to lanai and all the way to shark fin cove. They found an amazing snorkeling spot that was clear and calm enough to snorkel in. In addition the ride there and back was amazing. We saw whales, ate great food, and the staff took care of everyone! Was much better than the bigger boats I’ve taken over to Molokini!

The video required to watch was so great to educate about the history and the intention of starting tourism back in Lahaina. The trip was amazing! The staff was so nice and great guides, food was yummy and great environment. It was whale season when we came so saw a whale or two and lots of dolphins. I would recommend this trip to anyone.
