12/10, worth it. - Would come back. Helped a ground of starter snorkelers, they were great to my wife when she inhaled too much salt water, and prescription goggles made the day fantastic.

A must do when visiting Maui - We enjoyed an amazing morning with captain Jill and her crew Danielle & Si(Silas) snorkeling at the coral reef and some viewing the “spinning” dolphins. Captain & crew sharing their knowledge. We were well taken care of. Would highly recommend.

Fun for all - Arrive early...get on first. Eco safe sunscreen. Backpack ok.
Had great fun. Saw a mother whale and her baby. Got good video. Snorkeling off lanai was great...much more than the picked over Molokini. Host were fun and enjoyable, very helpful. Saw large school of jumping blue dolphins. Visited lanai blowhole from boat. Got some great memorable videos.
Fresh fruit, snacks and wraps were delish'. Snorkeling at 2nd location also fun. Then got to jump off boat in deep blue ocean before returning. 5.5 hrs of fun on our vacation. Group of~15, no large crowds. Truly semi private.

Great snorkeling adventure - The trip was super fun we saw all kinds of sea life near the coral. The guides Val Scott and Jill were very knowledgeable and even went snorkeling with us to point out the fish. They will give you pointers if your a first time snorkeler. Depending on ocean conditions can get a bit rough but would highly recommend this tour.

Great experience - The best experience during our trip. captain Darrel, Scott, Val were all absolutely great in their own ways. We were lucky enough to have great weather and water conditions that led captain Darrel to take us to some spectacular spots he doesn’t usually get to go to. Captain D also tried to take us to where the dolphins hangout. For me it was my first time snorkelling and Scott and Val were both personable and friendly not to mention great instructors. I would recommend this boat if you’re looking for a great way to experience Hawai’i.

Great time on the water - The boat ride was so much fun and the crew were very professional and fun to be with. The water was so warm and the scenery incredible. Very worthwhile and great because it is a smaller boat. Loved the snacks too!

Perfect trip - This was probably the highlight of our trip to Maui. We had perfect weather and incredible snorkeling. We saw lots of fish and a turtle. We stopped at two spots and had plenty of time in the water. The best part was coming upon a pod of dolphins (100-200 of them)and stopping to watch them swim around our boat. An experience for a lifetime!
