Lanai Snorkel Tour & Dolphin Watch Cruise with Lunch - PacWhale Eco Adventures

Lovely trip to Lanai, learned some Hawiian, and saw amazing fish in crystal clear waters!!!

Reviewed by: Lana

Everyone should consider going on this trip. It's a lovely trip on a large boat with a crew and captain who really love what they do and love Maui and everything there is there. Maui is magical and having the opportunity to share it with people who truly care about it is such a fantastic experience. Do it!! You will not regret it :)

Discover Lanai Day Trip from Maui, Hulopoe Bay Snorkeling & Sweetheart Rock

Day trip to Lanai

Reviewed by: Bob

Can't say enough good things about the day with captain Turtle and crew. The crew was so attentive and fun. The breakfast and coffee that was served on way out to island was delicious. What really impressed me was that the crew remembered everyone by name thru out trip. The island of Lanai was as beautiful as the pictures. On a personal note I'd want to thank the crew especially Steve. I had an accident in the water and had to be taken to hospital. Steve went with my family and never left. Fortunately I was able to travel back and take boat home with captain Turtle. The boat and crew were amazing. If you want to book a trip to Lanai I strongly recommend Trilogy with captain Turtle.

Lanai Snorkel Tour & Dolphin Watching Adventure with Meal - Hawaii Ocean Rafting

Amazing snorkeling near Lanai

Reviewed by: Jeannie T.

Captain Jill, Silas, and Jen provided an amazing trip, complete with hundreds of spinner dolphins passing the boat along the way to Lanai.
The snorkeling near Lanai was incredible, with crystal clear water, beautiful coral, sea turtles, spotted eagle rays, huge schools of fish, and a baby octopus! My family and I could have stayed in that first snorkeling spot all day! All of us would highly recommend this trip. The captain and crew were knowledgeable, professional and fun. It was one of the best snorkeling trips we have ever taken.

Kindest crew in Maui!

Reviewed by: Denise and Melanie

This day trip to Lanai’i was an experience my wife and I will never forget! Captain Joe and his crew are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and attentive! On the way we were able to spot a manta ray just as we left the dock and several whales on the way to Lanai’i where we got off the boat and snorkeled. We were also served a delicious lunch! Check out the photos the photographer takes too. She is awesome!

We’d like to send a special shout-out to Coby aka “Utah” who wins the Kindest Crew-member award for ensuring I was safe and still able to participate so my wife could fully enjoy snorkeling! We can’t tell you how much that meant to us, thanks again!

Great crew!!

Reviewed by: Amanda

The experience was amazing! We were super well fed, the crew was so knowledgeable, we saw so many whales along the way, and had a great time!
The captain was super friendly and was great at keeping everyone on track for time. Chad really went the extra mile by learning all of the passenger’s names. Mark gave lovely whale knowledge and some history of the Trilogy. Justin made sure we were always with a drink and was extremely polite!

Will definitely be doing this experience again!

Such a fun and beautiful trip!

Reviewed by: Vicky

We had so much fun during our Lanai trip. We saw whales, and dolphins on the way there and our way back to the harbor. The snorkeling was great and the staff were so caring and knowledgeable! The lunch was also a highlight for me, I wasn’t expecting such a nice spread. I cannot recommend it enough, it was truly worth it.

Great Excursion

Reviewed by: Andrew

The highlight of our trip. The ride over, while lengthy due to the fires in Lahaina, was great. The captain was funny, his name was Turtle. We saw dolphins and the snorkeling on Lanai was awesome. The trip was worth the cost, without even taking in to consideration the great lunch we were served. That chicken is amazing. You also get to visit a pretty exclusive beach, it’s shared with the Four Seasons Lanai, that is nice because your group is almost all the only people out there. Next trip we will definitely do this, or a trip to Molokini Crater. Either way, we will definitely use Trilogy again. They are fantastic.

Lanai is a gem

Reviewed by: Mike Harvey

This trip was for sure one of our highlights of our vacation. Captain Mario and his crew was positively amazing. Full of energy and all displayed that they love what they do. They catered to everyone with a smile and made sure all were taken care of to the best of their ability. Attention to detail, safety and making sure we all had a great time was achieved to the highest level possible. They even did a great job maneuvering through tougher seas than normal on the way back. A job masterfully done gentlemen! Would totally suggest this tour to anyone. Mahalo!!!!!

Show me the money…

Reviewed by: MOM- made of money.

The boat ride was awesome. The island was beautiful. The food good. For the price point for this trip $312 a person I felt they hounded for tips and extra money for pictures. It was off putting. My family of 4 was $1248 that should be enough for the excursion. Captain pushed the issue and wanted to give staff Venmo accounts. Ugh. I am not cheap and planned for Hawaii expenses but the hounding was over the top.

Amazing trip. Beautiful beach- amazing crew. Best excursion we did.

Reviewed by: Charley

Started off by getting a call from captain to ensure we were in the area because we couldn’t find it initially. Get on the boat yummy bfast cinnamon rolls- beautiful ocean. We sat up front on the netting- saw flying fish dolphins and whales! The captain of the ship made sure we had a great experience by allowing us to view the dolphins and driving toward the whales to ensure we got a better look. They had lots of facts about the marine animals we saw- the island- and the history of trilogy. During the stay at lanai we enjoyed the beautiful beach and tide pooling- we did not snorkel or snuba. Before we left the island we had a yummy lunch, bbq chicken and noodles that the crew made fresh in a wok smelled so good! Then we boarded the ship and headed back- on the way back we got to see some whales and we learned about the end of whale season and the competition between male whales to get female etc. Mai tais on the way home even offered non alcoholic moctails for the kids. Plus delicious ice cream. Was by far our favorite trip adults and kids included. Thanks trilogy for the amazing experience!

Trip to Lanai island is a MUST DO in your Life!!!

Reviewed by: Lana

Fantastic trip from beginning to end - The boat ride to the island was smooth and very enjoyable, saw tons on dolphins right up to the boat, flying next to the boat and jumping our of the water. Even saw a Mommy and Baby dolphin - so Cute!!! Then to the Lanai island for a unbelievable snorkeling experience - so many beautiful fish - schools of them - amazing. The Crew was supportive and watchful for the entire group's safety and highest level of Fun. The lunch is all you can eat freshly cooked noodles, teriyaki chicken, salad with mango dressing, refreshing drinks - the most wonderful meal. Don't miss this trip - it is 100% worth your time and the cost of the trip. We plan to go again when we return to Maui.

Quicksilver Lanai Snorkeling Cruise & Dolphin Encounter with Meals [May-Oct]

Enjoyed by 3 Generations

Reviewed by: Alisa

The experience was fantastic! We saw dolphins and whales on our way to the snorkeling destination. We saw sea turtles, colorful coral and all types and colors of fish while snorkeling. The crew was very friendly and offered a great (optional) intro for us first timers before we got in the water. Gear was in excellent condition and wet suits, noodles and life belts were offered free of charge. The lunch was good and so were the cocktails provided after snorkeling. We even won a prize for the trivia game we played. All 3 generations in our group loved it and would do it again!

Good experience

Reviewed by: Cyndy

The experience was good. We saw both whales and dolphins. The unfortunate thing was that they overbooked the boat and there wasn’t seats available for everyone on deck. Being forced to sit in the crew area below and not hear the captain’s commentary had a way of making you feel unwelcome. However, we did get to do the activities and saw wonderful marine life.

Maui Adventure Lanai Snorkel & Dolphin Watch Ocean Raft Tour with Lunch

I’m glad I booked this trip :)

Reviewed by: Anna

I couldn’t experience more, than I had on our boat trip to Lanai
It’s perfect size of boat if you want to see views without other passengers heads in front of you, actually hear interesting and fun stories from captain and feel close to water.
We saw so many dolphins, colorful fish, turtles and learned a lot about these islands. As a bonus I got stung by a jelly fish, but I’ll take it as a very unique experience lol
If you’re very picky about food, bring your own, but for me it wasn’t important at that moment. They have different drinks and water, so nothing to worry about.
Both captains are super friendly and knew what they do.
Thank you guys!

An absolute blast

Reviewed by: Scott & Amanda

The crew on the Trilogy IV were unbelievably accommodating and welcome. The service on the ship and on the beach was unparalleled. Every part of the trip was an absolute blast from the snorkeling, the beach, and a last minute swim party to top off the ride. The Captain truely knows how to host a party; just when you thought the service couldn’t get any better, he would come by and clean your sunglasses.

If you’re debating between a trip to Molokini Crater or this trip to Lana’i, trust me; these guys put every other excursion to shame.
