Great Maui experience - The boat was fantastic and the crew helpful. On our way out to Molokini, dolphins swam aside the boat and on the way out, a humpback breached. We didn't see any turtles, or the octopus that others saw, but what we did see was spectacular!

Great experience - Great time! Service was impeccable. All of our requirements (goggles with a prescription plus wet suit) were met with great detail and customer service. We were initially nervous as we were rookie snorkelers, but were assisted every step of the way.

Worth it! - We booked this excursion last minute, and as soon as we got on board were so pleased that we had done it. It was well worth the money spent- despite being less expensive than many other similar tours, it provided so much- from delicious foods to fun and experienced crew members all ensuring a great time. The fact that the back of the boat has so many ladders made getting in and out super quick, so there wasn't any wasted time. The photographer (Marley) was fantastic. Recommend getting to the harbor early to ensure getting the seat you want on the boat.

Amazing crew, great vessel, fun for the entire family. - This was my third time out with Calypso, my fourth time out to the crater and turtle town. I will continue to book with calypso for all my next visits to Maui. The crew is so fun and helpful. It is nice to have everything really taken care of for you when you step on the boat. MAKE SURE YOU READ THE TIMES CORRECTLY! It can get confusing on their website and ticket when it says cruise starts at 7:30. You have to be there by 6:45 - just a heads up.

So much fun! - Despite the big waves we had a great time on our snorkel tour. The crew was very focused on everyone having a great experience and showed us where to find the turtles. Everyone was very friendly and wanted to make sure we had a great experience. Grayson was especially great with our son who got a little bored on the way out. Highly recommend Calypso for a fun morning adventure.

Turtles galore! Amazing - Very professional staff, appreciated that it was a somewhat smaller group since you can run into folks. Got to see a ton of turtles, which was amazing, only negative was we had to cut our Molokini visit short due to weather, it I had already started to swim back when they called everyone in. Appreciated that They were very safety minded.

I love it - It was a great experience, the organization, the attention, the food, the drinks and it seems enough time for me to snork and explore the places.

Not the best option out there - The staff were really friendly and the boat ride was nice. However the areas they allow you to swim in at both spots are pretty restricted and gets very crowded with all the people. If you have young kids, then this is the right choice. But if you want to more freedom to explore, to see more sea creatures, and not spend a 200 per person... I highly recommend renting some gear and going to honolua bay, la perouse bay, or black rock beach (amazing spots).
