    Captain Matt & Alex were warm and entertaining. The snorkeling at Molokini and Turtle Town was great. My group of 8 family members all had wonderful time! 3 hours was the perfect amount of time for us.

    Excellent time and well worth it for the experience. Both Captain Matt and Jess are great- super kind, helpful, and care about your experience. You can tell they are passionate about what they do and want to provide a good trip. Boat is new, nice. I have my own snorkel gear that I utilized, but my wife and mostly everyone else used the snorkel gear provided- which is nice, good quality snorkel gear. We were on the 7am tour to beat the heat and have good visibility. First stop at Molokini was crystal clear and had tons of fish, coral life to see. Second stop at Turtle Town gave us the opportunity to swim up close and personal with multiple turtles! Lots of fish and more coral life to see at TT, as well. Snacks, sandwich, juice and water were provided and hit the spot after snorkeling for a couple of hours. Boat ride is fairly smooth and brief- only about 15 mins to get to the first stop at Molokini. TT is on the way back in basically. Excellent trip- highly recommend!

  • Lovely trip

    Wonderful crew, beautiful boat, lovely trip. Wish it was a little longer, maybe one more spot to visit. Sandwiches were left to be desired and the vegan options ran out, they should make you confirm your choice before trip.
