Really special trip, great crew (they were training a newbie and she was awesome!), the perfect amount of time for a chill wildlife adventure. Shoutout to the Sunday crew!

Fabulous snorkeling trip to Molokini. Cpt. Matt and mate Kyle were great! Lots of great info, and constant attention to safety, comfort, and aloha spirit! Crater was vibrant with assorted fish, and coral looked healthy. A family also on our trip reported seeing an octopus, but we did not. After Molokini, we ran around the back of the crate, then to Turtle Town. Spied a Humback crossing the channel back to Maui, and a few Dolphin. Turtle Town is aptly named, as we saw at leat 8 or 10 just hanging on the reef and swimming alongside as we snorkeled. Outstanding trip!! Book this one - you won't be disappointed!!

Kyle, Alex, and Michelle did a great job getting us to some amazing snorkeling spots! Saw plenty of turtles in turtle town and so many beautiful fish at Molokini Crater! Because we had a smaller group (there was 10 instead of 19) we were also able to go to the bad side of the crater where water was 400’ deep. A very different look under water! They knew the best spots. I have never seen so many fish and so many different kinds of fish. We did the 3 hr tour and it was the perfect amount of time. Trip included water, sodas, and sandwiches. Such a great experience for our first time in Maui!

A great trip. Since the boat is small so is the number of people on the trip. Loved the small tour feel instead of being on one of the tours that has 60 people. First stop was to see green sea turtles, thenon to the crater.
