No longer afraid of the ocean! - If you feel nervous at all, DON'T! They take such good care of you! And are so patient and kind, and genuinely want to help. So grateful this father and son share their love and knowledge of the ocean with others. Wonderful, amazing experience.

Great guided snorkeling experience off the beach near Kaanapali. - Gabriel got us started at the waters edge. He then guided us further out from shore where we saw a lot of fish and 2sea turtles. I get nervous to be far from shore in an area that I have never snorkeled before, but his quiet confidence was just what I needed to be comfortable. Highly recommend this for new snorkelers as well as experienced ones. A beautiful day in the water!

Loved this tour! - Thank you to Gabriel’s Ohana for an amazing experience! I was nervous about snorkeling with my 12 year old for the first time, and they put my mind at ease right away. They were incredibly caring and attentive to everyone, and they kept a close eye on my son to make sure he was safe. Unforgettable, beautiful, and educational! 10/10 mahalo ❤️

Amazing experience for first-time snorkeling! - Gabriel’s Ohana is an amazing company to choose for snorkeling. Jason was such a calm, easy-going guide. He made me feel comfortable with it being my very first time snorkeling! I told him I just wanted to see a turtle and he went and found 4 of them for me to see! We even saw a cute monk seal relaxing on the beach. Such a magical experience that I will never forget.

Awesome experience, can... - Awesome experience, can not recommend enough! Extremely in depth guide of the corals off the beach. Unfortunately (and this is beyond the guides control), the corals close to shore are bleached, but there is still lots of sea life to see!

Must-do esp for First Time snorkelers - Best experience so far! This is our first time me and my 13 yo daughter. Gabriel Ohana crew made it feel like a breeze! The guide was super supportive and patient in explaining everything holding our hands. The Santa looking big guy with flowing white beard and 50 yrs of experience your in safe hands. He knows what he’s doing! Middle of the ocean he kept showing us the special plants and flowers. Each time he goes in like a jeanie grabs something magical! So much fun! He took my daughter with him all the way to show her 3 turtles. I got hang of snorkeling in just few minutes and went all over the ocean by myself looking at beautiful fishes and magical coral reefs. Couldn’t believe this is our first time with very basic 5ft pool swimming skills lol. Olowalu is definitely very friendly not so busy beach nothing intimidating here! if Snorkeling has been on your list like mine and haven’t got a chance yet guys this is the place to get started! Good quality life jackets keeps intact with 3-way plugs. I was in the middle of ocean just by myself! They’re not rushing. He lets you start shallow at easy pace then take deeper with him. If you are not comfortable he will ask you to stay there. Small group so you get personal attention. highly recommend this magical experience! After 2.5 hours of snorkeling definitely you are hungry. highly recommend checking out local trucks and smoothie at Maui butterfly farms just a mile back from snorkeling point. We went to Leoda’s Pie and Sandwiches was so good! lots of vegan options too! my daughter loved the fresh fish sandwich and traditional chocolate coconut pie and fresh baked cookies there!

Perfect experience for our family! - We were so grateful we chose this tour! I’m a bit claustrophobic and felt anxious at the beginning, but both the owner and Costanza helped me overcome my fear. It was also our kids’ first time, but they’re strong swimmers and felt completely comfortable from the start. Gabriel’s dad (sorry, we forgot his name!) was an incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and sweet instructor! Aloha, guys!
