From Ma'alaea Harbor, Maui: Molokini Snorkeling Adventure Aboard Calypso

Overview
Explore the natural wonders of Molokini Crater, a volcanic islet 3 miles (4.8 km) off the coast of Maui, on this snorkeling tour from Maalaea. Surrounded by clear tropical waters, this extinct cone is home to many species of marine life, such as fish, sea urchins, sharks, manta rays, and coral. Molokini is a marine preserve, meaning nothing can be disturbed, keeping the island and underwater environment pristine. You'll also explore Turtle Town, and admire native birds. Two water slides, a glass bottom viewing room, and a "leap of faith" are also available if you don't want to snorkel or finish early. Breakfast, lunch, snacks, soda, and juice are included.

This trip was a lot of fun, here is the rundown: boarding - easy and straightforward, they tried to up-sell on snooba, cameras wetsuits, etc breakfast - solid quality Snorkeling at molokini - awesome, lots of other people there but thats okay. Not really that many fish Snorkelling at Turtle Town - pretty good, saw a turtle close up Lunch- a bit bland, slightly disappointing Cookies - not good

We had a great time on this snorkeling trip! The trip is a well-oiled machine... they definitely pump out a lot of these trips... and they do it very well. We were impressed just by how many staff they had aboard, and how professional & organized they were. It made the whole trip go safe & smoothly. We liked: - LOVED that they have a naturalist on the boat that snorkels with the group at both location to offer (optional) "naturalist tours" - he pointed out several different species of fish I would have never known how to identify otherwise. Also, as someone who has a mild fear of swimming in the ocean (FYI we did not encounter any "scary" species in the water) it helped me feel a little more comfortable to have the option of swimming in the group. - The two snorkel spots we stopped at were hands down some of the best snorkeling I have ever done. I have been to a few spots in the caribbean & hawaii... The water at Molokini crater was unbelievably clear and we saw SO many different kinds of colorful fish! Turtle town was also super clear and we saw at least 5 big sea turtles chilling and swimming in the water around us. Such a cool experience! -Again, the crew were amazing, professional, everyone seemed to have a clear part in the operation and played it well... very happy with the staff & service. didn't love: - We wished we'd had more of a heads up about how early we would have to get to the boat. We boarded about 15 minutes early and it was already too late to get a seat anywhere other than the inside lower deck. While yes, there are technically enough seats for everyone on board, you will not have much of a selection if you don't get there super super early. Give yourself plenty of time for parking, walking there, etc. - Lunch was really good, but breakfast was kind of weak. Mostly an assortment of pastries, then scrambled eggs with or without ham that were decent but had cooled down considerably by the time I got to them. Also I would suggest that hand washing/sanitation was encouraged before letting passengers touch food utensils or else only let staff touch the serving tongs... Overall awesome experience, would definitely recommend!

What a great crew that runs the Calypso! It was a great day, and the crew was excellent and so much fun! The only complaint is that the boat is big and it can get crowded so get to the Calypso early to get a good seat on board.
