The Best!!! - The best trip ever! The crew was perfect! They constantly asked if there was anything they could do to make our trip better! We saw whales breaching and then lots of fish and a turtle while snorkeling! I’m 90 years old and felt completely comfortable!

Best part of our trip! This is a must do. - Best part of our trip! This is a must do. We came here with our whole family. There were 11 of us. Captain Travis and his crew were the absolute best. He even stopped and let us check out some whales. It was a once in a lifetime experience we will never forget and could not be more appreciative for their service. The food was also delicious if I could give it more than five stars, I would.

Must do experience - Money well spent!!!!! We had the best day with Captain Carrie, Nico and James. We saw tons of beautiful fish, turtles and several whales. They served a delicious breakfast, took time to chat with us and share history on the island. Lunch was even better and so were the drinks. Even the vibe and music were 100/10! Our party included a 5 and 7 yr old and the kids LOVED it all!!! Def book with Sea Maui, you will not regret it!!!! This was our second cruise with them and def not our last.
