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.

I would only give this 3 stars. The crew was fantastic but there were just wayyyyy to many people. In the water, it was hard to not bump into all the people or get kicked with a fin. There were very few fish at Molokini and 1-2 turtles at Turtle Bay. So many people got sea sick that the bottom deck just smelled like puke. All of the stars were really just given for the great crew. I would recommend a private snorkeling tour or just skip altogether. I have been snorkeling in the Caribbean and the waters are much clearer.

Loved the crew and both snorkeling locations! Great Breakfast and lunch! My only issue was with the amount of ppl. Some were very inconsiderate about where they were swimming. I’d like to go on a more adult trip, or smaller group. Other than that, we had a wonderful time!
