Best snorkeling ever - The staff were great and very encouraging when I was a bit scared. This is the first time I was brave enough to go far enough to actually see anything, but my husband said it was the best snorkeling he has ever done! Also, my son said a turtle swam right up to him. We highly recommend this boat!

Just an Average Sailing Excursion - The boat was a good size and we felt safe on it. The crew was also professional, courteous, and attentive. On the boat, they had some basic snacks, water, and sodas. They don't provide any alcohol like some of the other places, however, you can bring your own. The actual excursion to "turtle town" was dull and a bust. They only sailed about 8 miles each way, right along HI-30 on the NW coast, which is along the same route we drove from Kaanapali to Maalaea harbor, so we saw the same scenery, just from the water. Before getting on the boat we were told by a person at a local coffee shop that the swells on the NW were very strong that day so the tour will likely adjust the route and head south. Well, that didn't happen so the main attraction of the tour, the snorkeling, ended up being disappointing. When the boat finally stopped at the snorkeling location, the coral gardens, the conditions were not ideal for swimming. It was like what we were told at the coffee shop. I'm a strong swimmer and didn't feel comfortable swimming in the spot they stopped at. Most of the other people on the boat felt the same way and quickly exited the water after going in. The water was too dark to see much of anything and the currents were strong. The captain yelled out "There's a turtle" a few times but no one else saw one and it seemed like he was just putting us on. While I do not expect them to control Mother Nature I believe that they could've adapted and found a different location to sail to. The boat just stayed in the same spot for over an hour even though it was obvious that no one was really interested in being in the water at this location. From my experience on other tours, the captain will usually sail elsewhere to find more ideal conditions This is the second sailing excursion I've done in Maui and neither one was exceptional. If you really want to get on a boat then you'll probably be fine with this crew but it probably won't be the most scenic or exciting snorkeling trip you'll take.
