Don't be scared by their lower price - there is no catch. This was an amazing experience and I'm so grateful to the crew (and that I booked theirs instead of pricier options!) The only reason I could see the others costing more would be better food options but we weren't there for the food. We went out to both Molokini and Turtle Town where we did in fact see many turtles. The crew was truly excellent. If you want to pay more to eat filet mignon on your way back from snorkeling go for it but otherwise you can't beat the value here. Would recommend to anyone visiting Maui. Thanks again to the crew!

I had one of the best days of my life snorkeling on The Malolo with Captain Jordan, Ryan and Branden. The captain was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. Jordan and Ryan were awesome and fun. They even caught two mahi mahi off the back of the boat -- so much fun to watch! We got lucky with the weather -- Molokini was pretty calm, and I saw plenty of fish and a couple of small sharks. Turtle Town was fun, too. Saw a huge turtle there, surgeon fish, and a ton of others. I can't recommend this tour highly enough. The crew was awesome!

My boyfriend and I took a snorkel trip on the Malolo to Molokini and Turtle Town. The crew on the boat was Ryan, Brandon, and Justin(?) and they were awesome. They were very helpful with the equipment and very knowledgeable about the area and wildlife. Molokini itself was not exciting. The water was very clear, but there were not many corals or fish at all. Turtle Town was excellent. There were a lot more fish and coral here and we saw 10+ turtles up close and personal! It is also good to know that anywhere you swim in Maui you will see turtles. We saw at least one turtle every day at the various beaches. Kapalua bay was actually the best snorkeling spot for us and it’s right off the beach with snorkel gear available for rent. There were many many more brightly colored beautiful fish and coral and we saw 4 turtles within 2 hours there and even saw an eel. It was great. The boat was also fun though. It was cool to get out on the water and have the knowledgeable crew tell us about the island! Also free breakfast and lunch. And the bartender made amazing Mai Tais for only $5!! Definitely worth the $75 for the tour even if the snorkeling wasn’t that great.
