Reviews
We had a great snorkel tour! We couldn’t go to turtle town because of bad visibility from the hurricane, but we spent extra time at molokini crater. We saw so many awesome fish! We even saw a barracuda and some eels. Huge shoutout to Noah who was super friendly and answered all our questions about the kinds of fish we were seeing. Food and open bar were also great! Super friendly and helpful crew all around. They also have a really fun slide off the back of the boat. So glad we chose pride of Maui!
Brought my parents and husband on the Molokini Snorkel tour, this was while Hurricane Lowell began entering Hawaiian waters. The entire time we felt safe and were constantly being checked on and offered proactive care for any sea sickness due to the larger than normal swell. The boat is very comfortable with 2 bathrooms, and an outside warm water shower to rinse. The snorkel gear offered with wet suit shirt add on were well maintained and clean. The food was fresh and tasted great. Even though our second planned stop, Turtle Town, was unavailable due to the waves, the staff found a secondary location in a safe area for more snorkeling. During the whole trip, it was apparent the care of the guests was the priority.
We had a wonderful time on the Pride of Maui Elua snorkel tour! Captain Justin and his crew were extremely attentive to the needs of each guest, adding to the luxurious feeling that this particular cruise offered! The food was good, drinks were better and the weather was beautiful. This is something I’d highly recommend doing during your stay in Maui!
