4.00Probably my misunderstanding. I thought we were going out somewhere besides straight back to the beach at Lahaina. Hoping to see more sea life than we did. Otherwise, a good experience for the money.

4.00Wonderful and knowledgeable, friendly staff. Great snorkeling areas.; and good price; however, a hot dog and chips was not much of a lunch

3.00Be early. The limited parking is challenging to find. We showed up 30 minutes early and narrowly made it to the boat. The Captain is a jerk. He has no charm at all. My husband had to run to the boat after finally finding a parking spot. In the meantime, I asked if we could transfer to the Friday trip. His answer was, "for a fee." No compassion, only tunnel vision to do his job. I heard another passenger say the directions given sent her away from the right area. Again, no compassion. The photographer was amazing. Nice! Although we did not buy the expensive pictures. One picture costs $50 and the package $125. The boat was clean and well-maintained. The food was ok—hot dogs. Fruit and veggies were great. The stops were nice. Honestly, we have seen more turtles at our hotel than in Turtle Town. Although the rest of the crew was very kind, I would not recommend this trip due to the captain. His announcements were condescending. One crew member said, "you should try working with him every day."
Great morning of snorkeling
