This is not appropriate for toddlers or infants as you must be at least 3 feet tall to ride, and you must be able to climb up and down a nearly vertical 10 foot step ladder.

Atlantis is an air-conditioned, high-tech 48-passenger submarine where guests are invited to view Maui’s natural and artificial coral reefs, fish and marine life 100 feet below the surface. To enhance its sub tour experience and help improve the marine environment, Atlantis embarked on creating an artificial reef in December 2005 by sinking the aged Carthaginian replica of a 19th century supply vessel. The sunken Carthaginian, which needed major repairs and would have been scuttled at sea otherwise, is anchored to a sandy bottom in 95 feet of water that is devoid of coral structures. The resulting artificial reef has begun to develop into a unique habitat for local marine life.

The tour runs just over 90 minutes.
All tours provide narration in Japanese via headsets.
