My husband and I participated in the Hanalei snorkel adventure and it was top notch. We had snorkeled in Greece and there were hardly any fish to see, so I was amazed by how many fish we saw during this snorkeling. We swam right around the reefs and probably saw 15 different types of fish including eel and manta ray. Our tour guide, Gabe, was knowledgeable and attentive to our needs and safety. They were also able to accomdate my dietary restrictions for lunch - which was a big plus. Thanks for a fantastic morning.
