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.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with this experience. The whole reason we purchased these tickets were to go to Turtle Town and swim with or see the sea turtles and they did not even attempt to go to Turtle Town. Molokini and Turtle Town are two different locations, and while we went to Molokini and swam with fish and saw the reef, we were informed that the water was "too murky" to go to Turtle Town and that we would not even attempt to visit. They told us this within 30 minutes of leaving the dock. Honestly, if they would have told us before leaving the dock, we would have requested to get off the boat and request a partial refund or voucher to come another day (maybe 2 or 3 days later) to try for Turtle Town again when it's not so "murky." This was not offered as an option at all. There was no attempt made to rectify skipping Turtle Town, no refund (not even partial), no vouchers, nothing. Even a large corporation like Disney will make an attempt to refund customers when the park needs to close due to a hurricane or tropical storm. We spent 5 hours on a boat to just Snorkel with fish, when what we really wanted was to see turtles. If you are expecting to see turtles, do not book this experience. It is way too expensive just to see fish you can see snorkeling on the beach for $20 (Snorkel gear rental). Again, we are very disappointed the company made no effort at all to rectify the lack of attempt or notification of not going to Turtle Town. It's not even listed in the description that it may not be guaranteed. At least with whale watching tours with other companies, they will usually say "seeing whales not guaranteed, or if it is guaranteed, then they offer a voucher to come back another day to try again."

Fantastic adventure… they have the option of underwater photography! Staff is amazing. They even curled for us to see the whales.

We went as a group of 4 adults and 6 kids ages 11-17 and everyone really enjoyed it. Captain Carlos was very informative and the crew was great. We even saw humpback whales and they swam under the boat. We were all very happy we went.
