Great family snorkeling experience! - This was the last excursion we took on our trip, and it was the best of them all. Captains Joe and Brian were welcoming, kind, funny, and patient, making sure everyone had a positive experience. One of our teen sons has autism and had never snorkeled before, and Joe was so great with him, giving lots of encouragement and assistance to make sure he got in the water and was comfortable (and successful!). The weather was a bit windy, but with careful monitoring, we were still able to go to Molokini after Turtle Town. We felt very safe and were grateful for their honesty about the weather conditions and why they made the decisions they did and when. We especially appreciated the sub sandwiches, chips, and drinks provided for an early lunch and the opportunity to find some whales on our way back to shore. We were on the water for the full 4 hours. Highly, highly recommend!

Jess and Joe are great! - Tour was great and super easy and fun! Jess and Joe were great and got us out to molokini early so we were one of two boats there! Was a little chilly in the water but they sell rash guards if you get cold. Definitely will be recommending to my friends for Molokini snorkel to Maui.

Memorable in Maui! - Highly recommend this excursion. Joe and Jess were super friendly, knowledgeable and made sure we had a great time. We saw way more than we thought and although I know some of that is weather and conditions beyond their control, I do think they played a big part in making our experience memorable!

Amazing Snorkeling Charter! - Absolutely amazing experience! The charter is smaller than most giving it a more intimate feeling and the captain and crew were incredibly knowledgeable about the ocean and locations visited. They didn’t rush the snorkeling and took time to do some whale watching along the way to the locations. Would absolutely book again and recommend to friends.

Fantastic experience - We had such a great time on the Getaway with Captain Joe and Jess!! We especially appreciated how they planned the day to give us the best experience based on winds, temp and other boats. The whole day felt like we were on a private tour and both Joe and Jess were helpful, friendly and a joy to do business with!! Pick this tour if you wanna have the best experience!!

Makena CC No K’oi - What an excellent experience, no lines, easy check in. Joe and Jesse were over the top. Jesse is an board certified marine biologist and shared so much knowledge with us. Joe hates crowds and took us to places where boats had either left or had not been there yet., leaving us with the best experience for our morning. Some are thinking smaller boat… we took 2 anti-nausea chewables and did fine. We had a small group of 10 and no one else became sick either. It was great !!! Highly recommend.
