Outstanding and unforgettable experience.

Reviewed by: Anand Nanda

Hospitality is to another level. Highly recommended. Special thanks to all the crew members for being so awesome. Our 3 year old had a blast!!!

If you are a beginner or lack swimming experience (non swimmers), you must try this.. they make it so easy..

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Fun crew

Reviewed by: Harv

The experience was fun. The crew was very nice. The gear provided needs a serious update. Old a little gross and very poor quality. I would absoloutly recommend the experience to anyone coming but I would deffinitly recommend to aqua adventures to update the snorkel gear.

2.5-Hour Sea Maui Sunset Dinner Cruise with Open Bar from Kaanapali Beach

Catamaran cruise

Reviewed by: Gina A

Overall the sunset cruise was a good experience. Really awesome staff. Open bar was pretty fun and they always try to keep your drink full. Food was average and was still a little hungry after. Breath taking sunset though. It was also a sand dock so we had to walk through the water to get on the boat. That was not advertised. Wading in water up to knees. Older folks might struggle. My client was also in slacks which was not ideal if we knew that going in but I as ok.
Walking through the water wasn’t bad if you knew that it was coming It would have been great to be advised to dress in shorts and flip-flops.

Four Winds Afternoon Snorkel Cruise & Turtle Watching Tour with Taco Bar Lunch

Fun for a family of 7.

Reviewed by: San huynh

The crew member on the ship made the experience possible and fun! They will meet your needs and help you the best as possible. Madison and RACHEAL ARE THE BEST! They helped us when they could and kept my daughter Evelyn entertained. The only thing I recommend is to download the app for ParkWhiz because you will need to spend extra time going online to pay for the parking space and if you did not show up a half an hour early you may miss the opportunity to board on time because your still trying to pay for your parking spot. Warning it gets very windy so you need to hide inside sometimes and May get crowded. Other than that the food was great for us and so were the unlimited drinks.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Amazing!

Reviewed by: Tony

This was the best snorkel trip we have ever done! The crew was extremely kind and helpful. The boat was small with about 30 people on board (versus boats with 100+), which made snorkeling and the boat ride very nice as we all had our own space. Molokini was amazing. I have never seen such great coral and fish. The visibility was like seeing in HD. At Turtle Town, the one crew member (I can't remember his name, I'm sorry!) did an amazing reef tour where he pointed out different fish, gave lots of facts, and helped us try to swim under the arches. He even pointed out a white tip reef shark! And of course, we saw some turtles. Mollie, the photographer, got lots of amazing pictures of us diving and gave us an amazing deal. She even gave us lots of helpful tips for our road to Hana experience. The food was great and I truly can not stress how amazing the crew was in making this experience one of the most memorable. I would do this again!

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Pleasant, relaxing

Reviewed by: Oscareen

The crew was awesome! The snorkeling was a great experience. Yes, it’s VERY EARLY in the morning, but with the air temperature being cooler, the water feels warmer, which is a plus.
Saw many different kinds of fishes, and a turtle and an octopus.
It was relaxing just floating there and watching the ocean life.

Maui Submarine Tour by Atlantis Adventures - Temporarily Not Available

First submarine ride for my family and me.

Reviewed by: Jaime

The experience was one for the books, I took my 2, 5, and 7 years old. The year-old was super excited about all the cool fish he saw. The 5-year-old attention span was about ten minutes, after that he was just out of it. The 2-year-old was looking for mermaids. So overall it was a success.

I would, hands down, do this again!

Reviewed by: Ashley

I would, hands down, do this again. The crew was amazing, friendly and great with the 2 kids my group had with (ages 1 and 3). My son did snuba, said it was awesome and the instructor was great and friendly, easy to chat with. The Captain stopped to let us see whales (baby, mom and escort), it was absolutely great. There was a very knowledgeable crew member who gave tid bits of facts throughout the tour and another crew member who helped point out turtles a well as gave pointers for going under the water. Food was good too. Nothing fancy, but it did not disappoint. Not to mention mai tais were delicious. Can't wait to book again!

2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui

Great sunset cruise!

Reviewed by: Anh

This was a great sunset cruise along the coast of Maui. There was unlimited drinks on board and the staff was very attentive with getting you refills. I believe the food on board was catered from Joey's Kitchen and we had some pulled pork sliders, brussel sprouts, and chicken wings - they all tasted great. I would highly recommend this sunset cruise but make sure to book early because it sells out quick.

Family-Friendly Glass-Bottom Afternoon Whale Watch Tour - Calypso Maui [Dec-Apr]

Would recommend

Reviewed by: Radhika

My husband and I did the 2 hour Calypso whale watching on Feb 22nd and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The guide was very informative and told a lot of fun facts about mother and baby whales. We saw many whales as this is the time when mother whales come down to Hawaii waters to give birth and to train their babies.
The boat was big with comfortable seating and was clean. The bartenders were great too and made some amazing drinks for very fair prices.

Reviewed by: Jane

The crew was super efficient and friendly. We were seated at a socially distanced table and served cocktails as soon as we left the harbor. The vegetarian meal was creative and delicious and better than some restaurant meals we've had. The skipper made sure we saw some whales who were especially active. All in all, a great experience.
