Loved it! - Great experience! My kids loved it. The staff were great at making sure my son's equipment fit properly. Food was good. Was nice having the option to buy the photographer's photos so we could focus on enjoying the moment.

Must do in Maui - Great experience with exceptional customer service. I went with my daughter as a graduation present for her. The boat was an amazing set up that gave a top notch experience. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. I have already recommended this to several family members. Thank you so much for the experience!

Fantastic snorkel + bonus whale and dolphin sightings - A lot of really good food was served and unlimited non alcoholic and alcoholic drinks were served. If we could give more than 5 stars we would. We snorkeled and whale watched. It was magnificent. As we made our way back into shore were surprised with a huge group of dolphins swimming and playing right next to our boat. The reef we went to was beautiful and we also saw many whales. The captain was amazing - very friendly, funny and full of interesting information. The crew was also very friendly and super attentive to everyone's needs. Great service. The tour was pretty incredible.

The best day ever!!! - Excellent experience!! Swam with turtles, puffer fish, AND sharks (of which I am insanely afraid of, but we were reassured that type - the white tipped tail - are harmless, like puppy's of the sea). It was awesome!!!

We had such an amazing... - We had such an amazing tour. We saw so many whales and were so close to a few of them! We were so surprised with how much we saw snorkeling! Breakfast and lunch was great and most of all, the crew was amazing! Ready to help and answer questions, especially since we traveled with 3 kids. Highly recommend and hope you see as many whales as we did.

A Perfect Snorkel & Whale Watching Excursion - This was a great excursion. We had a wonderful time! Plenty of room and seating for everyone. Food was provided both breakfast and lunch. Drinks were unlimited. Staff was very helpful and friendly. We saw dolphins, whales, snorkeled with a large sea turtle and saw lots of tropical fish. There was an onboard photographer that got in the water with us and took underwater family photos. You have the option to purchase them after, which we did. The photos were phenomenal. Overall would rate this excursion a 10.
