We got lucky and took a boat that had very few people on it. We saw whales almost instantly after leaving. The two snorkel areas (Molikini and turtle Town) were excellent. Our crew was knowledgable and friendly and funny. The food was perfect too-grilling! We had a great time and would do this again in a heartbeat.

We had a great day trip with the pacific whaling conservation group. We left early and had a light breakfast and a lunch on board. The crew and captain were awesome very knowledgeable and super helpful. We were able to see several species of fish and turtles. We were in the water listening to dolphins close by. A stunning trip.

Our trip was on Nov 20,2014 for the 6 hour trip to Molokini as well as Turtle stop. We began in the morning and the crew was amazing and hilarious. Captain CJ was an excellent captain and was very knowledgeable in all things ocean and Maui. Our pre-teen boys quizzed him like nothing else.
The entire crew was very helpful and appeared to also be having a good time. Its always important to see the employees enjoying their job as much as you are enjoying the trip.
On our way out to Molokini we had a nice little breakfast of pastries and fruit. We then saw whales. It was truly an amazing experience. We were lucky enough to stop and watch them spout and dive down. We experienced this at least 3 times on our trip out to Molokini.
Once we arrived at Molokini we were in a perfect location and saw so many amazing fish and coral heads. We were in the water the entire time and it seemed like such a short time. Unfortunately we have to share time with other boats. We then headed about an hour away to another snorkel spot where there were known turtles. On the way we had a BBQ lunched and an open bar. Everything was delicious and very well made and put together.
On our last stop we were able to stay longer. We saw a few turtles and once again a ton of different fish.
We had so much fun and enjoyed our time very much. I'd do it again in a minute and definitely recommend this to anyone who wants quit an adventure.

We are seasoned travelers and experienced snorkelers, and this trip was amazing. The Leilani crew and captain (CJ) were knowledgable, friendly, and entertaining. The snorkeling was some of the best I've ever experienced, and we saw so many turtles I couldn't even keep count. We found the boat trip just as enjoyable and rewarding as the snorkeling. This tour was intimate, mellow, and had everything we imagined and more. Our sons, ages 8 and 11, want us to include that the turtles were the BEST. We highly recommend this tour!
