Highly Recommend

Great snorkeling trip to both the Molokini crater and Turtle Town with my wife and two teenage sons. We went to Molokini first and the conditions were great, very clear visibility and plenty of time to snorkel. They offered wet suit tops for $10 to add warmth and some float ability. Snorkel equipment was adequate. We were able to go to Turtle Town as well to see the turtles. They provided grilled burgers/chicken lunch and open bar. The staff were very nice and accommodating. Great day trip - 5 hours!

Best mai family excursion!

DanielDan_D, Apr 2024

This was the perfect family experience. My 70 year old parents had a great time swimming and snorkeling as did our 15 year old teen ager. Breakfast in the morning and lunch was excellent. All in all worth every penny.

Worth the money

Fun tour! Very well organized. The crew did a great job of keeping things safe, yet fun. My 22 yr old daughter felt a little sea-sick (which she is prone to, the ride was very smooth), the staff was awesome at helping her work through that. We saw pretty fish, several sea turtles, and in the distance the blow of a late season whale. The slide in the boat was more fun than I would have guessed (even though many of the adults didn't choose to use it.... their loss). The gear/equipment all seemed to be in good shape. They cooked a nice lunch (didn't expect the food to be anything other that fair and it was actually simple yet tasty)

Awesome trip highly recommend.

The staff was very good and helped us alot with sea sickness and getting into the water. We loved seeing the sea turtles. The food was good as well. Nothing to complain about.

Amazing Day!!

Nichole_B, Apr 2024

Crew was fantastic, super happy, friendly, seemed to genuinely enjoy all of us. Water was amazing, food was plentiful and tasty and very well organized! The best was enjoying a mai tai after swimming with the turtles!!! Thank you! Niki, Kaj and Laine, the CA Lifeguards

Awesome Excursion

Margaret_P, Apr 2024

The crew was great, the views were great, the snorkeling was superb. So glad that we were able to add this to our itinerary last minute (rare to be able to do I hear-but we went on Easter Sunday, so I think that was a major factor). Make sure to bring PLENTY reef safe NON-SPRAY sunscreen, because you’ll get a lot of sun.

Amazing snorkel trip, will do again

Donald_B, Apr 2024

This snorkel trip was amazing. Captain Jason and crew were professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. I particularly like that the captain let us know what we were seeing told us some history. He stopped the boat when he saw whales. The food was great the hot lunch was very appreciated after a morning snorkel at the crater. Thank you captain and crew of the Pride of Maui for a great day.

Great Time!

This was my favorite excursion we went on during our week we spent on the Hawaiian islands. The staff took great pride in what they were doing, extremely helpful and friendly. The food and drinks afterwards were good too.
