The snorkeling was just wonderful! Beautiful reef! Saw bottlenose dolphins off the front of the boat!! Staff was incredible! They made sure your equipment was top notch and that you felt very comfortable! Have been on quite a few snorkeling tours— this was the best!!!

On the way to snorkeling we saw lots of dolphins jumping in front of the boat, also Monk seals few rare sharks and many other ocean fauna, Definitely recommend two adults and kids! Most friendly cruel you can find! Thank you guys for a life time memory!
Nice boat ride, so-so snorkeling

If you want to enjoy a boat ride with a little snorkeling this is a good option. Great crew, nice boat. The snorkeling was so so, and not really worth the long boat ride if you are not into boat rides. Of course there is no way of knowing what sea life will be present at the time and place you are snorkeling so it is what it is. We had a great day though and saw lots of dolphins, a monk seal and a hammer head shark while on the boat.

This was our first trip to Maui and our first time snorkeling! It was a GREAT experience for all of us! The entire crew was awesome and entertaining. The Captain’s commentary was both historically informative and funny! It was AWESOME to see two different species of dolphin, a hammerhead shark, flying fish and schools of fish I’ve only seen in aquariums!!! Thank you so much for this enjoyable trip that we will remember forever!!
Staff made it a great experience!

Trip was awesome! But the staff made the whole trip! They were very helpful and friendly and went above and beyond to help everyone on board. They really stole the show. My wife and I were a little unsure about snorkeling but this trip changed our minds and we loved it. Overall it was a magnificent experience. Tips for future travelers - bring a towel with you. Even if you don’t get sea sick take Dramamine before you get on the boat just to be safe. Bring a hat.
Had fun

Saw a pod of about 30 dolphins playing - just amazing to see! Great friendly staff who double-triple task: divers also distributing snorkel mask and fins, pass out water and chips, facilitate check-ins, collect trash. Captain Paul was fantastic, funny, made us feel safe and relaxed. Left at 7am, returned at noon, snorkeled for an hour in just 1 spot. Boat has slide, dive deck, lots of noodles & flotation device. Snorkel 101 lessons was good for beginners. Pulled pork sandwich, crudite, coleslaw for lunch, Costco danishes /muffins plus coffee, hot chocolate for breakfast were provided. Great fun
Epic Snorkeling Day!

Great snorkeling trip to Lanai. Boat is nice, crew super friendly and prepared, equipment too notch. Wet suits for rent if you are the cold type. Food is abundant and not bad for a boat trip. Snorkeling was ok- lots of fish but not a turtle spot. If you have been to Molokini this is a nice change and we were the only boat out there
