Terrific Crew for an Amazing Afternoon Adventure - The day was excellent from start to finish! Sea Maui did a great job communicating directions on how to find the locations to park and check in. My wife took care of the online booking, which I assume was easy due to the short time it took. We had a beautiful day for our tour, parked in the structure they recommended in the messages they texted & emailed, and met up with Jim at their kiosk near the beach, who is an excellent initial host for the experience. He welcomed us all when the group had checked in (about 18 people), explained safety details about boarding, and where we would go and what we might see. He's got a good personality and a fun patter. Then we boarded with Ben, Travis and Lou (I hope I'm getting the names right - maybe Luke?) as our crew, who were knowledgable, friendly and great hosts at sea. We got the safety talk out of the way, they started out and we got our gear for the swim. After a short, beatuful ride, we set anchor and the group got into the water. My wife and I decided to buddy up (why not?) and enjoyed observing the reefs we were above and the many beautiful fish in the crystal clear water. When we reluctantly decided to get out, we were lucky enough to catch a couple of glimpses of whale breaches in the distance. Once everyone got into the boat (it was time to head back), we sailed in that direction for a short time, but no more sightings. It was late in the season for it, so we felt pretty lucky. By that point, the open bar was serving generously-poured cocktails and our meal, which was pulled pork sliders, breaded chicken, cole slaw and another salad. There was plenty for everyone and it was tasty. The ride back was also gorgeous, and filled with conversations with the crew about the location, some of the wildlife, and more, which they were all very happy to answer with great depth of knowledge. We felt safe and welcomed every minute on the boat. Would definitely recommend as an experience everyone to enjoy while in Maui. Thanks, Guys!

Underwater adventure - We booked this last minute. It was one of the best snorkle trips we took. We saw lots of coral. We also saw plenty of turtles, beautiful fish, and even a Monk seal. Crew was attentive and knowledgeable. We had a lot of fun.
