Get there early to register. There is a small area that you wait in until they line you up to give you your boarding passes. If you sit along the stone wall you should be in the line already! If you get sea sick, you might want to find a seat on the lower deck!

Ticket said 7:AM Departure, I arrived at 6:40AM only to learn the boat departed at 6:30. They offered to take me out the following day, thankfully I was still going to be on island that day so I agreed, but beware of last minute schedule changes...Several of us were left behind that day and many folks could not re schedule....Also While walking back to my car after missing the boat and rescheduling I received a call from someone chastising me for missing the boat. "you we supposed to be on our boat this morning!" I explained how the Staff person at the dock agreed it was their fault for not communicating the Departure time change, and the person on the phone sinply said "ok" and hung up. Conform departure time the day before your scheduled trip! - Captain was knowledgable, Staff was attentive and personable. Lana'i Snorkel Spot was nice but not amazing. took two hours to get to the spot and two hours back leaving barely 1 hour to snorkel. Molokini/Turtle town much better spot IMO.

It was a great trip! The boat ride was fabulous. The crew was very courteous and helpful. Had a fun time snorkeling. Didn't get to see a lot under the water because of how big the swells were that day. But you can plan a pretty picnic but you can't predict the weather. So it wasn't their fault by any means. All in all it was awesome.
