Lanai Snorkel Tour & Dolphin Watch Cruise with Lunch - PacWhale Eco Adventures
Good experience
Activity Date: 2022/12/23 | Posted on: 2022/12/25

The experience was good. We saw both whales and dolphins. The unfortunate thing was that they overbooked the boat and there wasn’t seats available for everyone on deck. Being forced to sit in the crew area below and not hear the captain’s commentary had a way of making you feel unwelcome. However, we did get to do the activities and saw wonderful marine life.

South Maui Whale Watching Cruise aboard Quicksilver Catamaran [Nov-Apr]
Awesome Cruise
Activity Date: 2022/12/03 | Posted on: 2022/12/24

Our family went on the early morning Whale Watching tour. It was worth getting up early to go! Our captain was very knowledgeable about the tour and surrounding islands. He took us a little farther out so we were able to see 3 whales! It was 2 males chasing down a female and she was leading them out on a chase! I would definitely recommend this cruise!

Deluxe Molokini & Turtle Snorkel Tour with Breakfast, Lunch & Drinks - Trilogy
Amazing experience
Activity Date: 2022/12/12 | Posted on: 2022/12/19

With this being our first snorkel tour, I wasn't sure what to expect. I can tell you that it was just as much about the people running the tour as it was about the tour itself. Everyone was dedicated to making our experience a memory to last a lifetime. The boat was great, the food was awesome, the drinks were a nice touch and the snorkeling was exactly what we were hoping for. Thanks again for making this an awesome memory.

Maui Submarine Tour by Atlantis Adventures - Temporarily Not Available
Great submarine tour
Activity Date: 2022/11/25 | Posted on: 2022/11/27

The adventure is totally worth it! Very well organized, kind and humorous crew, plus expertise, and the sub is safe, clean and comfortable. The size is just right.
Would suggest the sound system be improved, especially for those seating toward the back of the sub- when children’s excitement or conversations of “oooh’s” and “aaah’s” are happening half way from the front, it is hard to hear . Nonetheless, the captain rotates the sub to ensure both port and starboard sides get the same views!
We were treated to a visit of a pack of stirring dolphins! And on our way back, a sight of a whale shark…. Not your everyday adventure.
Lot’s of fish, and a surprise reef viewing await those who want to take this great tour.

Must-do adventure!
Activity Date: 2022/11/21 | Posted on: 2022/11/24

This was such an amazing adventure for my teen daughter and I. We were served the most delicious cinnamon rolls with fruit for breakfast as we cruised to the Molokini crater. The snorkeling was unbelievable! At the next stop we swam with turtles. Once back on the boat the captain served up a delicious chicken, rice and salad lunch. Plenty of seconds too! Great POG drinks and ice cream to finish off the trip. The last 15 minutes of sailing through the trade winds was also a blast!
Thank you for everything guys! 5 stars!!

The tour up the Maui coast was breathtaking. We encountered a large pod of dolphins that were very playful, jumping out of the water and spinning around. The lunch was tasty.

We had a great time on a very nice boat, friendly staff, snorkeling at a the crater, and good food. Would definitely do it again!

This trip was more affordable than others, which made us wonder what we're going to get, but it turned out better than expected! It included a nice lunch, a great location for snorkeling, and a good length of time (four hours). We saw many varied fish and the day was fun!

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures
期待通りのシュノーケリングツアーでした。
Activity Date: 2022/10/31 | Posted on: 2022/11/02

当日は天候も素晴らしく、私達夫婦だけが日本人でしたが、キャプテンをはじめスタッフ全員が親切で、ユーモラスで、優しい人たちで安心してツアーをエンジョイしました。
28歳のクルーの男性は過去に日本を訪れたことがありその時の様子を聞かせてくれたり、翌日がハロウンだったので女性スタッフの仮装も乗客の雰囲気を盛り上げてくれました。
乗客の数名とも、カタコト英語でしたが、ボート内で色々な会話も楽しめました。
ホヌとの出会いだけでなくイルカやモンクシールとも出会て本当に楽しい半日でした。
キャプテン以外は皆さん若いスタッフです。(キャプテンが一番の盛り上げ役でしたが)

What a fun experience! The crew was very attentive and thoughtful from beginning to end. They made sure everyone was well taken of. I was also impressed with how clean and well cared for the catamaran was. You can tell that SeaMaui takes a lot of pride in what they do. I booked the excursion as part of my daughters 30th birthday celebration on Maui. There were 5 of us and we were all able to sit together which was nice. Everyone had a great time and unanimously would recommend it. Mahalo SeaMaui .

Would do it again

This was probably the highlight of my week in Maui. The staff good, just not great. One of them seem more interested the women vs everyone. The experience was all that I expected. One negative is the deluxe lunch is burgers and chips. Hardly what I would call deluxe. So keep that in mind if you go.

Thank you for joining us! We provide a hot BBQ lunch of not only hamburgers, but also chicken breasts, hot dogs, vegan burgers, chips and fixings on the side. Most companies provide a deli sandwich, but we like providing a hot and fresh hearty option to our guests after snorkeling.

Mahalo!
