Core memory trip! - The pride of Maui went above my expectations. The staff was exceptional. I have snorkeled several times on my travels and never had a person in the water telling us the type of fish and the colors to look for especially the ones that were specific to Hawaii, not to mention the awesome turtles swimming right by us! We also loved having the wet suit jacket it definitely was a plus in the chilly water. I will highly recommend this excursion to anyone headed to Maui. Thanks for a very special memory with my family.

Great experience with Pride of Maui - We were on Maui last week celebrating our 50th anniversary with our extended family of 11. We booked the Snorkeling Molokini Crater and Turtle Town trip. This was the first time any of us had been snorkeling. It was perfect! Every one of the crew we interacted with was very helpful. The breakfast and the grilled lunch were great, as was the "happy hour" on the return trip. This trip was exactly as described. I would highly recommend it to everyone!

Great experience! - Great crew, the gear was in good shape, and the overall experience was a good one. It was a bit on the high side for swells. They were giving out lots of ginger drinks and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable.

Great family snorkeling trip - The snorkeling experience was amazing. Great weather and sights. All of the boat staff was so polite and helpful. Everything we needed was provided or there for a small fee for the convenience. Both locations had there perks, one for fish and the other for turtles. I would only have changed doing the snuba next time to see closer without having to hold your breathe and dive. All in all a great experience for the family. A must if you ever visit.

No snuba - Really cool experience. Not many fish at the crater anymore and didn’t see many turtles. We saw more turtles on our shores at the resort. Our party of 6 did not get to snubs as it is not offered on each trip. This would have been nice to know ahead of time or schedule with our booking!

It was ok. - It was a small space with alot of people. The gear is very used. And didnt work well for the people in my group. Breakfast was way underwhelming. Lunch was good. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Didnt see what we thought we would. Only 3 turtles were seen. But overall it was ok

Stay Away - Before boarding we asked if the water was too rough for snorkeling and they told us no because where we were going was protected. I asked if we would be snorkeling at both sights and they said yes. That was a complete lie. Let’s start with the 11 people throwing up the way to the 1st snorkel sight. When we arrived, the current was so strong that there was little visibility and most everyone got back on the boat after 30 minutes. Then, instead of going to Turtle Town, we sat there for another hour. After that, they moved the boat to just outside the harbor and sat there for another 50 minutes. When we asked what we were doing they said it’s too rough to go to Turtle town and the boat wouldn’t return until 1pm. I fully understand that you can’t control mother nature, but they were fully aware of the conditions and should have informed us prior to departing. If they had we would’ve rescheduled or tried to get a refund. The whole reason we booked with them was because they were visiting turtle town. This was a very expensive outing for a family of five and we felt completely scammed.
