We booked a day trip to Lanai. Due to wind conditions, we had to go to the alternate site. We snorkeled near Mala boat ramp. What a treasure, we had a blast and saw so many turtles. The crew was great. The boat was comfortable and clean. The boat was not “too” big. And we saw more at Mala than Molokini and turtle town combined. We would definitely book with Quiksilver again.

I highly recommend this snorkle tour! The crew made the trip easy and fun. Lots of tropical fish and it was so nice to see the colors in the coral reef. They serve an outstanding lunch and breakfast. Thank you for a memorable journey! Five stars!

The workers were great and everyone was very kind and nice. It was too bad that they changed the location on us without letting us know. Was disappointed that we did not get to see any fish nor turtles. We also didn't see any dolphins either for the price that we had paid. They took us to a beach which we could have just drove there to save money.

The boat and crew were nice, and they worked hard for the guests. The trip was not as advertised though. We went to neither Lanai nor a coral reef. We went to a collapsed pier that had 5 or 6 resident sea turtles and got to swim with them. There was little coral and not many fish but the turtles were active and we saw a lot of them. I don’t think the captain had any intention of heading to Lanai that day.

Ma’alaea: Lanai Snorkel & Dolphin Encounter was the best boat trip I have ever been on!!! The captain was friendly, informative, and determined to give us the best experience possible! We had the surprise opportunity to see a huge pod of dolphins and they came so so close to us! It was an unforgettable experience!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Quicksilver boat trips!!

Excellent crew and trip! It was a fantastic adventure for me and my kids. Thanks to the entire team! Only wish we could have purchased pics after we got off boat, as there were so many, we did not get a chance to look and buy.

My family and I visit Maui almost yearly and sometimes twice in a year! We absolutely love going on Quicksilver and have seen dolphin each time we have been on this excursion! Praying we can get back soon and the boat somehow survived the devastation! We love the crew, the boat, the size is not over-crowded... it is the perfect family excursion!

Great experience from start to finish. The crew was helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They greeted with a cheery smile and friendly attitude. They were helpful with fitting the gear and answering any questions we had ahead of the snorkeling. Once we docked the boat, they were helpful and kept a very careful watch on everyone in the water. They served a great breakfast and lunch and kept coming around to offer more. I would highly recommend.
