Snorkel at two exceptional locations aboard the largest Maxi Power Catamaran on Maui operating at just 60% of our Coast Guard capacity. Pride of Maui is the most stable, spacious tour boat, offering far more space per passenger, and unsurpassed guest service. Molokini Crater offers unparalleled visibility, and is a unique opportunity to visit 1 of only 3 sunken volcanic calderas in the entire world. Turtle Town is a unique series of underwater lava formations where Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles gather, and an opportunity to view these graceful animals in their natural environment. Both sites offer a wide variety of colorful tropical fish and other unique marine animals. SNUBA is also available onboard for *an additional charge*. Swim up close with beautiful marine life in a safe, controlled environment 15 feet beneath the surface, under the care of our expert Maui SNUBA instructors.

Would do again in a heartbeat

5.00Best time EVER! The crew was amazing. You start with a continental breakfast then cruise to your first swim while enjoying the beautiful sea and mountains. We saw whales breaching which, was so special. We were provided with wet suits and additional floatation devices in addition to a quick class on how to breath properly while snorkeling. Back on board, we had a great lunch of hamburgers/hot dogs ect then off to our second swim with the sea turtles which was magical. The whole time, the crew maintained our safety with their own lifeguard in the water for us. On the way back, limited open bar was available and cookies! The whole day was exceptional and the weatherwas perfect.
Amazing and well worth it!

5.00Wow! Amazing day on the water. Saw lots of whales 🐋, turtles 🐢, a few dolphins 🐬, and lots of 🐟 fish. Molokini was great but turtle town blew me away. Very well run and the entire crew and captain were top notch. Very well planned agenda, perfect amount of time for snorkeling/swimming, sightseeing, dining, and cocktails 🍸 Will absolutely do it again, during our next visit to Maui 🩵 My only recommendation is to mention on the website, that men with mustaches really should shave to get the full snorkeling experience-or- offer goggles and nose plugs as another option. I felt bad for my hubby who would've shaved if we knew how much it would hinder his experience. Other than that we (especially me) had an amazing time.
Great Molokini and Turtle Town Snorkel Tour

5.00We had the perfect day for snorkeling at Molokini and Turtle Town locations. The seas were calm and the sky was clear. The captain stopped or paused our movement when whales appeared close by, so we could enjoy them, which was appreciated. The Pride of Maui crew kept us well-informed of our options and were helpful. The breakfast was pretty minimal, but it was enough. Lunch was fantastic. Some guests took advantage of having multiple burgers, chicken or hotdogs. Drinks were OK. Going on the slide into the water was fun as well. It was a great tour overall.

4.00The weather can affect the experience We had blustery weather & huddled in the boat for a little over an hour The highlight for me was the sighting of a couple of Whales & 1 came close to our boat I’m not much of a swimmer so did not venture into the water for snorkeling.. my wife thoroughly enjoyed that experience
Excellent experience

5.00Excellent staff, they were so caring and helpful. The weather was bad, and we couldn’t snorkel the crater, however they took us to another location that was really cool. We also had a close encounter with a whale approaching us something that doesn’t happen very often. I would highly recommend!!!
Wonderful crew

5.00The crew was super friendly and accommodating. The ladies spent a lot of time socializing with her. One of the crew members even helped me out when I forgot a towel. They were amazing. I would love to go again.
