A Fantastic Experience from Start to Finish!
Our snorkeling trip with Gemini exceeded all expectations. The crew was outstanding—professional, attentive, and genuinely friendly, creating a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere on board. The reef itself was vibrant and full of life, making the time in the water unforgettable. From the moment we stepped onto the boat to the final farewell, everything was smooth, enjoyable, and top-notch. Highly recommend this experience!

This was such a fun experience perfect for all ages. We are a family with a 7 month old traveling with friends also with a baby until one. It was great to have coverage for the babies and be able to sunbathe on the top deck. They also had baby life jackets on board along with snorkel gear and kickboards. Snorkeling was awesome and we saw multiple turtles. The crew was very kind and supportive to ensure our group had a great time. The food was surprisingly one of the best Hawaiian BBQs we had on island. We all really loved our experience and definitely recommend!

Great experience! Crew was wonderful and the snorkel spot was awesome. It was a nice intimate group rather than some of the other vessels we saw that were packed.

We had an amazing day snorkeling on Gemini! Captain Andrew was so knowledgeable, and Drew and Rich went above and beyond to make it a great experience.
My hubby was feeling a little motion sick, and Rich was so attentive, helping him with every little remedy to get him feeling better. We really appreciated how much he cared and helped us still have an amazing day!
The lovely photographer, Ryan, captured some really fun photos of the two of us, and the lunch spread deserves its own shoutout. Honestly, one of the absolute best lunches I’ve ever had on a catamaran!
Such a wonderful crew and a fun day on the water. Highly recommend Gemini! 🌺🐠⛵️

The whole experience was so much fun. The crew was very friendly and gave the best advice for first time snorkelers. We brought our own full face snorkeling mask that worked perfectly. Watching the flying fish as we headed to our destination was a great surprise. My snorkeling adventure included seeing a small turtle and some of the most beautiful fish I have ever seen. The POG and lunch (luau quality) after snorkeling was really good. I would definitely recommend Gemini for snorkeling.

Plenty of shade (if you want it). Enough room to sit inside and eat. Crew was fantastic. Best part is it is a large catamaran and you are not crowded on it.

Fantastic crew who made sure everyone had fun and was safe. It was raining the day we started and turned into a beautiful sunny afternoon in no time. Fantastic spot for snorkeling. We bought the picture package from River, a crew member on board. He captured fantastic shots. Lunch was great and we ran into a huge pod of dolphins on the way back. The Gemini stopped and let us all observe for awhile and it was the perfect ending to a great excursion. Highly recommend. Very clean too.

We had such a great experience on this snorkel trip in Maui! The crew was super friendly, knowledgeable, and made everything feel easy and fun from start to finish.
We didn’t spot any turtles during our trip, but they went out of their way to give us recommendations on other spots where we could go check them out, which we really appreciated.
Overall, such a well-run excursion with an awesome team—we’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Maui!

This was my partners first time snorkeling and my second. It was such an amazing experience! The crew were super friendly and the boat ride was so beautiful, we got to sail alongside a pod of dolphins on our way to the snorkeling spot. The snorkeling spot we went to was great as well. Got to see a lot of different species of fish and turtles! Also having drinks on the way back was a really fun way to end the whole experience, plus they tasted great. For the price and the overall experience, I would definitely recommend this experience to everyone.

This was a highlight of our trip to Maui! There were a number of people on the boat, but there was plenty of room to move about and did not feel too overwhelming. We got to see a number of dolphins, sea turtles, and other fish while sailing and snorkeling. The crew were friendly and very attentive. The boat was well-maintained.
The lunch was good, especially the Mediterranean hummus!! Highly recommend!

Wonderful sailing, wildlife, snorkeling experience. We saw pods of spinner dolphins, turtles, lots of fish and coral. Crew were very accommodating, helpful and friendly. If needed, instructions for snorkeling were provided. Well-maintained boat with lots of room to move about. We even got a decent sail on the way back. Open bar was very generous.

Our family of 7 aged 30’s to 70’s was beginner to experienced snorkelers and had an amazing time with the charming Gemini crew out on the beautiful water. The turtles were a highlight! The level of service onboard was really unexpected - drinks were plenty and we would highly recommend booking this trip

Snorkeling was gorgeous, just a wonderful experience. As it was so great I just wished we could have sailed a little longer in the way back 😜 I highly recommend it 😍

The boat is a lot bigger than it looks; actually, it's perfect. They took us to a great spot just an hour away. I saw many fish and various types of sea life. The water was warm, and it was fantastic. The food was excellent, the staff was friendly, and the day was perfect. I was by myself, and they watched out for me the whole time. They have sunscreen onboard, and I highly recommend using it repeatedly.

Nice half day trip. 1 stop. I picked this trip based on length of trip, start time and pick up location. Great boat and crew. 2 of us wear glasses and they had prescription face masks that worked great. Saw dolphins and turtles. Good food. Very attentive and safely mindful crew.
