Capt. Stephane and Sean did an outstanding job on our Lanai snorkeling trip today. We enjoyed every minute of the trip to Lanai and back. This was the best snorkeling trip we have taken in Hawaii. The seas were a bit rough but Capt. Stephane found two great spots to stop and swim. Don't bother with Molokini or Turtle Town...

We had an absolute blast on the half day snorkel trip to Lanai. The capt was awesome and took us to all the best spots. Sean was incredibly knowledgeable and funny and kept us entertained the entire time. Would highly recommend this trip, you won't find a better outfit: capt, crew or boat anywhere else.

I knew it was going to be a fun trip, and I'd read the reviews so I wasn't worried, but we had an amazing time! Before we even got out of the Lahaina harbor we were visited by 3 spinner dolphins! Lydia and Johnny were awesome and knowledgable, and they made us feel totally taken care of and safe. The...

Had a really great day snorkeling! Saw a huge pod of spinner Dolphins to start off our trip! Captain Stephanie was super great at navigating the waves and taking us to some amazing snorkel spots-- we snorkeled four times--each coral reef was different and had incredible amounts of fish! We had muffins and fruit after our first dive, and sandwiches...

Excellent time on our trip! With Sammi as the captain and Sean as the crew, there was never a dull moment on this experience. We visited Lanai and saw two different areas, and this was our first time visiting Lanai. I would highly recommend this boat over others as it is smaller and that allows them more flexibility of where...

We were searching for the most value for money snorkeling trip in Maui and came across Hawaii Ocean Rafting. Setting out from #8 at Lahaina Harbour with Sean and Stephanie, we stopped at two really good snorkeling sites (save your time and Honolua and Makena!) and had an awesome time with the dolphins cruising around us. I have seen dolphins...

Terrific snorkel trip to Lanai! Great captain, Lydia, and crew, Johnny. We went to two spots around Lanai. The first was in Lanai Harbor. It was about 10-20 feet deep. It was pretty good with plenty of fish. Captain Lydia and Johnny assessed how well and comfortable everyone felt snorkeling. Since everyone did pretty well we got to go to...

We arrived early and were greeted by Lydia, who was so welcoming and extremely helpful. Weather was great and our captain was Sean, who loved sharing all his knowledge of the islands. We stopped at 2 spots and they were beautiful. Also did some short site seen locations. No dolphins, but other boats on the radio couldnt find them either....

We did the full day snorkeling trip which also involved a circumnavigation of Lanai and it was wonderful. Stephanie is an experienced and skillful boat handler who gave us a great trip despite some challenging weather conditions. She and her deckhand Johnny were friendly and helpful and provided lots of really useful information about Lanai and wildlife we were seeing....

I took my family of 5 on the Hawaii Ocean Rafting full day snorkel tour to Lanai. This was our 3rd snorkel tour to Lanai and our 2nd trip with Hawaii Ocean Rafting and it was excellent (again). We didn't circumnavigate Lanai due to rough water conditions, but we did hit 4 snorkel sites and saw the pod of Spinner...

Thank you for joining us a second time and a huge thank you for taking the time to share about your trip. Your wife brings up a good point, there is something about the small vessel and all the fresh air that makes those prone to sea sickness more comfortable. Hopefully you will join us for a third time on...
