Captain Steve and his staff, Rocio & Tati (I hope I spelled their names right.) were wonderful! Kind, fun, informative, helpful, and accommodating. Also another shout out to "Aloha Joe" the photographer! What a lovely personable guy, and great above and below water photgrapher. My husband has been snorkeling before, but it was our daughters and I's firat time. We learned a lot, had an incredible time seeing a variety of fish, a moray eel and even a big sea turtle! Great experience and wonderful memories. Thank you!

Beautiful scenery out to the snorkeling point. Captain Matt and marine expert Jess really made the trip wonderful. We had to cut the trip short due to high winds, however Matt took us for a cruise along the banks of Maui pointing out amazing houses and resorts. Worth the money!

Robbie is very easygoing, responsive and reliable. Had a good time try snorkelling first time ever in my life. Will definitely recommend this tour to beginners if you can (somehow) swim. This is the best tour ever I had in Hawaii to see the turtles swimming around.
