Awesome time snorkeling! Crew is great! - We took the afternoon snorkeling tour. I know it gets mixed reviews because of the weather. I’ve done the 7am, 5 hour snorkeling tour before, and I knew my kids wouldn’t be happy with that. You snorkel with about 500 other people. This tour was perfect. 3 hours and you leave at 1pm. The day we went the weather cooperated and we went to Molokini. We got to snorkel with just our boat. It was perfect. It was a little rough coming back but everyone enjoyed the waves. We even saw some dolphins on the way back. It was a great tour and the crew is super friendly. We bought the underwater pictures too. I would highly recommend this tour and boat. You may not get to go to Molokini in the afternoon, but you will still have a fun time!

Great trip for families and first time snorkelers. - Great trip. Definitely want to take Dramamine ahead of time if you’re like me and you get car sick/sea sick. Still, it was pretty smooth for us, thankfully. Snorkeling gear is provided as are beverages. The crew was great. We didn’t go to turtle town because of the tide surge, so we visited two locations in the crater. Still, I’m glad Captain Carlos made that call for our safety. I’ve never seen water so blue and we saw a good variety of fish. Definitely take your own snacks if you have specific diet considerations (I’m gluten free so took mine) but there was plenty of food for everyone and I heard them say you can reserve a veggie sandwich option when you do the booking. They had plenty of options for floatation if you aren’t a strong swimmer. I’m recovering from frozen shoulder so the waist belt and pool noodle were so helpful for me. But they also had life jackets. My grown sons had never snorkeled before but the crew’s quick lesson and helpfulness got us all going straight away. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and we felt safe, well taken care of, and learned a lot about the history of the area along the way.

Wonderful snorkeling... - Wonderful snorkeling tour. The crater water was so clear. Turtle town was great seeing Green sea turtles. Would highly recommend doing the photo package with Marley and let him know ahead of time to you get great family photos. Sit in the front of the boat for better views! Staff was fantastic. Good food for both breakfast and lunch. Kid friendly.

10 out of 10 - Amazing trip! The crew was excellent, the catamaran was very nice, and we felt safe. The crater had great snorkeling with lots of beautiful fish. Turtle town gave us lots of close encounters with the turtles. We are very glad that we went on this excursion!

Actual Sea Turtles and Colourful Coral! - Jumping on a big boat with a hundred other people can seem daunting, but don't get scared off! We puttered through the massive ocean over to the Molikini Crater which offered some gnarly snorkelling treasures. Colourful coral, and so many schools of fish. There was even a seal down there! At turtle town, we indeed witnessed sea turtles out in the wild, just chilling, swimming, and living life. The guides were really knowledgeable on Sea and snorkel safety, and I was able to forget all about the prospect of running into sharks. Great snacks too! Would recommend!

Great team and great experience - Great team and quiet ride. The food was very good. We had good visibility at Moloki Crater. The best way to see the corrals is to swim carefully to the crater rim. But always take care of them beautiful & Corals
