What a wonderful adventure! We loved this 1/2 day snorkel trip to Molokini and "Turtle Town". It took nearly 4 days to convince my husband that we should go on an organized snorkel trip. I was tired of looking for great places to snorkel and knew the cruise would provide what we were looking for. Thanks to the wonderful crew, it was one of our most memorable days in Maui. Our boat captain was fantastic and the staff did a great job explaining the days events. Everything was well organized, timely and relaxing. We can't say enough great things about the delicious meals, cold drinks(alcoholic and non-alcoholic), breathtaking views, fish and turtles! As luck would have it, we even got to see a few whales. We enjoyed the experience and look forward to doing it again. Aloha!

I was very impressed with our snorkel cruise. The food was delicious and the staff was very nice. Unfortunately, the water at Molokini was rough - so they substituted Coral Gardens instead. Turtle Town was great - saw several turtles. I liked how they posted someone over the area where best to see them - so you knew where to go. Coral Gardens was good as well. They offered wet shirts onboard for $10, which is nice if you get cold easily. They also offer Snuba for $58 - you get to do that for about 30 minutes. Best to reserve ahead as they only offer a limited number. I felt they really work hard to give you a great experience - while keeping safety in mind.

It was amazing. My wife and me went for snorkling for the first time and we don't know swimming. But still we enjoyed alot. The people in boat are so friendly and very helpful for us. They provided us breakfast, lunch and alcohol. All are good in taste. In between they are coming to us and asking for cookies like that. I need a prescription glasses of -5 they have provided that snorkel also. We felt really good at the snorkel place too. And main think i booked through Veltra.com, these people are really amazing, they are calling me before 1 day and making sure that i have this activity and letting me know where i have to check in and all details. I really liked this website. Even i have a time problem some how they are managing and scheduling to other day and finally making that activity happening. Really good website for activities booking and had fun in Snorkel too...

We are a family of five with 3 kids under 4.Call us brave or crazy,we wanted try snorkeling for the first time.All we have end of the day is a wonderful memory of our first snorkeling adventure.With a 4 year old on a wheel chair, we couldn't have asked for more.The crew was just fabulous.They also had super cool floating boards for kids which has a transparent area for viewing.kids could float with adults and they too can enjoy the ocean wonders. My 4 year olds were quite thrilled seeing the corals and turtles.I would call it a success adventure when every one in the family including the toddler had their own share of ocean fun and adventure.We had just enough time to snorkel on both the locations despite 3 kids and adults taking turns.Here again,it was the crew which made everything possible for us.If you wanna try snorkeling with small kiddos, my hands raise for this one!

11月7日に参加しました。私たち夫婦は、ほとんど英語ができず、日本語案内があるということでこのツアーに参加しました。送迎をお願いし、港に到着してみると当日参加した日本人は私たち夫婦二人しかおらず、かなり不安な状態でした。っというかかなり精神的に追い込まれていて緊張しっぱなしでした。そんな中、船上で女性の方に日本語案内していただき、私たちに気を配ってもらったので大変助かりました。きちんとシュノーケリングの説明をしていただき、アドバイスもあり、海ガメにも会えることができました。マウイの海は本当にきれいで、魚も珊瑚礁も大感動するくらい目にも鮮やかでした。私は海で泳ぐことじたいが20年ぶりだったのですが、そんな不安も吹っ飛ぶくらい大変満足でした。マウイはホノルルと違って日本人が訪れることが少ないのかもしれませんが、もし行く機会があれば是非参加してみてください。マウイの海は本当に素敵です。またマウイに行く機会があれば是非参加したいです。貴重な体験そして思い出をありがとうございました。

My wife and I had such a great time on this little cruise out to the Molokini crater. The crew onboard the Pride of Maui was outstanding and I was very impressed with their professionalism, enthusiasm and dedication to making all of the guests feel very welcome and comfortable with the activities on the slate. At no time did they ever shortcut the safety and well-being of anyone on the tour. I have snorkeled in a few other ideal locations around the world and this one definitely tops the list. The aquatic arena at the Molokini crater and at turtle town was amazing and we really enjoyed our experience. Many thanks to the crew and the terrific job they did.

This trip is a morning trip to Molokini and then Turtle town close to west Maui. The price is quite reasonable since it includes Cruise, continental breakfast, burger lunch, drinks with alcohol or non-alcohol, and snorkeling gears. It has snorkeling noodles and boards for those who are not good at swimming. They also have lifeguard, so pretty safe for this trip. The total snorkeling time is two hours: one hour for Molokini, and one hour for Turtle town.
Molokini is wonderful, many colorful fishes and coral reefs there. It’s the crater of a hidden volcano, of course extinct volcano.
The next stop is Turtle town, which locates close to west Maui. It’s hundreds meters off the shore. We see several turtles under the water. We followed a turtle and enjoyed swimming with it.
By the way, the scene from the cruise is fantastic. We have a broad overlook of Maui island and the valley in west Maui.

We have been on similar tours before so had some idea of what to expect. The boat was a little tricky to find (to the left of the main harbor entrance).
The crew were excellent, very professional, friendly and organised. They had a lifeguard in the water for the snorkeling, which makes this a great choice for families.
The snorkeling spots were very busy but we saw lots of great fish at Molokini, and we saw 4 turtles at turtle town.
The food was very simple, but they have a lot of people to feed so it needs to be.

夫婦で参加しました。
日本語スタッフのみほさんのケアもあって、日本語のほぼ使えないマウイでも当日困るようなことはまったくないでしょう。
基本みほさん以外のスタッフさんは英語オンリーですが、非常に気さくで、こちらを気遣ってくれますし(仕事なので当然かもしれませんが)こちらを楽しませようと努力してくれているのはかなりの好感が持てます。
参加当日は晴天に恵まれ、モロキニ島でのシュノーケル、スヌーバ共に最高の透明度でした。
とくにスヌーバは潜水時の耳抜きが問題ない方には是非にもとおススメするくらいです。
ただ、モロキニ島の次のポイント(海亀観察ができるらしい)については、前日までの天候次第で透明度が足りなかったりすると中止です。(説明文にもある)
私たちもそちらは残念ながら中止になってしまい、最初とほぼ同じポイントでのシュノーケルタイムになりました。
私たち以外の日本人客はほかに2組ありましたが、当然といえば当然か、そのかたがたとはあまり絡みませんでした。むしろ外国人の方々が非常に気さくで、そちらと仲良くなったくらいです。
総括としては、非常に楽しい思い出になりましたし、なによりお昼のチーズバーガーは絶品です。

朝6時半のピックアップはちょっと眠たかったけど、船に乗ったら目が覚めました。
昨年ハワイ島(キャプテンクック)でシュノーケリングをしたときには、水もあまりきれいでなく魚ももう一つだったので、今年もあまり期待をしていなかったのですが、モロキニ島は、結構水もきれいで魚もたくさんいました。パイプウニヤカワハギ系の魚、チョウチョウウオも数種類いて、まあ、満足。
1時間ほどして、次のウミガメポイントへ。水はあまりきれいでなかったので、ウミガメが見れるかどうか心配だったのですが、ほぼ一番乗りで海に入ったのが幸いで、すぐに1頭に遭遇しました。まだ、あまり人がいなかったので、ゆったり泳いでいる姿を堪能できました。ここでも1時間近く泳いでいましたが、モロキニに比べ魚も少なく、やっぱり目当てはウミガメ。そろそろ終わりかという時に、少し離れたところにカメがいるとガイドの人が教えてくれたので、全速力でそちらに向かい2頭目を見ることができました。
自分ではポイントなどわからないし、ツアーに参加してよかったと思った瞬間でした。帰りの船中では、クルーが撮ったビデオを見ながらビールやカクテルを飲んでゆったりできました。

My husband and I took the snorkeling trip on the Trilogy V out to Molokini Crater. What an amazing adventure! The crew was so wonderful and went out of their way to take care of their guests. The food was delicious! The crew served fresh baked cinnamon rolls and fruit for breakfast, a huge lunch, and an ice cream sundae for dessert, as well as unlimited beverages. The trip out and back from the crater was so much fun! The snorkeling was top notch! After snorkeling at the crater, we also snorkeled at Turtle Town where we saw beautiful sea turtles in their natural environment. There is nothing more amazing! I would highly recommend this trip and we cannot wait to sail with this crew again. Thank you for the amazing memories!

Beautiful, magnificent, spectacular, and extraordinary. Just a few words that come to mind when talking about my experience with this activity. I knew that while I was on Maui, that I wanted to go scuba diving. Unfortunately, you have to be certified to go scuba diving. So, I did the next best thing. I went on a snorkel/snuba diving adventure. Not only was the experience breathe taking, but the instructors, captain, film crew, and the rest of the staff was so courteous and knowledgeable. Any questions, comments, or concerns you have they are more than willing to go above and beyond your expectations to make you feel comfortable. Well worth every penny I spent on this activity. Anyone who is thinking about going snorkeling, should check out this company. They have amazing customer service which is hard to find. The snuba adventure is unlike anything I've ever tried. You get the opportunity to swim up close and personal with all kinds of sea life. Highly recommend spending the extra money to go snuba diving.

3/9に参加しました。前日はラハイナからのホエールウォッチングに行ったのですが、シュノーケリングポイントへの道中クジラを見ることができます。
キャプテンもクジラを見つけるとボートのスピードを落としてくれるのでみんな大喜び。
当日は40人ほどの参加者で日本人は我々含め5名、ガイドのタカコさん(女房と同名)がいろいろ世話を焼いてくれます。
純然にシュノーケルとしては透明度・魚の数/種類などイマイチの感が・・・
でもこの時期はクジラを見ることが出来るので良しでしょう。
カメもチラチラっと3匹見ることが出来ました。
カメだけでしたら、カフルイ港の発電所裏岩場がシータートルポイントです。
20匹位浮かんでます。ただオアフのラニアケアと違って砂浜ではないので甲羅干しは見ることが出来ませんが。

Molokini is one of the best spot for snorkel/snuba the water is way more clear then the beaches, tons of exotic fish for you to swim with and this group of guys are the best. Delicious food, ice cold drinks and everyone are very friendly, the best customer service I have encountered. With the captain's guidance we were able to spot lots of whales and sea turtles as well. If you decide to go to molokini make sure you go with these guys, you will not regret it.

It was my first time snuba diving. Molokini was crystal clear and we could see everything. After the snuba dive we were allowed to snorkel some more. We then went to turtle town. I think the corals were spawning. The water was not very clear. But we did see some more turtles. On the way back we even saw some whales.
Wet suit and the second snuba dive price were not included in the voucher. I wish hawaiiactivities would collect these added fees up front rather than we pay in the boat.
