Visit Maui’s famous snorkeling and diving destinations Molokini Crater and Turtle Town (or Coral Gardens) on a snorkeling catamaran! Molokini is an extinct volcanic cone and the snorkeling visibility is usually 100 feet or more! Many different species of marine life live within Molokini. Green sea turtles, fish, urchins, harmless sharks, manta rays and coral surrounded by crystal clear water all year around make Molokini a must do on your vacation activity list. This boat tour is on all tourist must see lists, and it's one of Maui's favorite activities. This is also one of Maui's most family-friendly activities.

Well worth it, the boat was nice and food was good. Felt a little like a cattle call instead of warm aloha - and we felt pressure to purchase pictures

The crew seemed very knowledgeable and we’re super friendly. they took the time to explain things, especially if it was your first time snorkeling.. aloha Joe was awesome and super friendly and a great photographer. We would recommend this crew to anyone that was gonna come to Maui..

great experience! the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. it is very beginner friendly if you’re not a strong swimmer. we got to see fishes, turtles, dolphins and even got lucky and saw some humpback whales so late in the season!! overall a very good experience

This was a cool experience. Like others have noted, the check in time ended up being 6am instead of 5:45 am however getting there and early in line got us a better seat on the boat. First stop at Molokini was 45 min snorkeling. Lots of diversity on the reef. Second stop was Molokini. It was quite low visibility which improved over time but it wasn’t super clear. Saw a few turtles and one was even swimming right next to me! Overall the experience is extremely dependent on weather

Not worth it considering how much time was spent traveling between the locations and actually being in the water. The crew was nice and informative but we wish we had spent more time actually snorkeling.
