what a great start to our holiday. Our guide John was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. he took his time making sure everyone was comfortable and shared lots of information about the wildlife and Hawaii. we saw lots of sea turtles and fish. Again, John worked really hard to spot the animals for us and told us all about them.

A very enjoyable and fun activity with an experienced guide, Jeremiah. The reef was active with turtles and fish. I recommend the early 7:15-30 start if you can wake up and drag your kids out of bed, the sea is calmer (bigger waves when we were returning). I’d definitely do it again if we come back to Maui.

Great experience, highly recommend. We had Kyle as our guide. Super chill, knowledgeable. I was nervous, never having snorkeled before. I wasn’t even sure I would get into the water. But I did and it was amazing! It was nice to be in a small group and I found kayaking preferable to a large boat with a bunch of people. Awesome excursion at a reasonable price.
