Unique way to see more of the reefs - I took this excursion with my partner and her 84-year old Mom…James had the patience of a saint, making sure Mom felt safe and comfortable (though she opted out and decided to just float while we explored the reef). Mom was more confidant when we booked this, the open water maybe being more intimidating in person than looking online, though just getting out to float by herself at that age is more than most. First time either of us had snorkeled using sea scooters, probably not the last. They are pretty handy seeing more, and help swimming against the tide/currents. James showed us a great time, and even helped us get back towards our port afterwards which was greatly appreciated. Highly recommend!

A great tour!!! - We had an amazing time snorkeling with the sea scooters with our guide! Truly a great experience! Even with our younger son, who got pretty tired, our guide knew just what to say to keep him going back to the shore. We all loved seeing the amazing reefs and fish. Our guide, G, was kind, patient, and genuine. We really appreciated him! This tour is a definite must-do (and this is our 3rd trip to Maui, so we've done a lot) :)

Maui snorkel - 10 out of 10!!! G was an awesome tour guide. My 9 year old son said this was the best day of his life. We had a blast. It was very easy to do and we saw a ton of marine life.

Awesome experience with a great guide. - Our guide Seth was amazing. He made it fun, easy and enjoyable. He was knowledgeable and made it a great experience for all of us. Our group ranged from age 9 to 60 and we all had a great time.

Experience of a lifetime! - This was such an amazing experience! My teenager and I were nervous as we hadn’t snorkeled before but Seth and the team were fantastic. We felt secure in the ocean and loved how the scooters did all the work and all we had to do was float and explore the ocean life. We were lucky enough to see a monk seal, along with lots of turtles and fish. We wish we had time to do it again before our trip ends! Can’t wait to come back again. Worth every penny!
