It is clear…read morethat this owner/operator team really cares about the ocean and it shows in how they run their tours. I really appreciated how they tried to maximize our time spent in the water and not just riding in the boat. It is a small tour (about 20 people max), so you never feel overly crowded on the boat or at the snorkeling sites. We were able to go to 3 different locations (Molokini crater, the reef in front of Molokini and a turtle cleaning station. We saw a ton of fish, a turtle or two, plus a cute little squid and three octopuses. Deckhands Kelly and Josh were outstanding! They were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. They definitely made our day! We would definitely book another trip with Seafire in the future. Thanks to the whole team for a great experience!

For us, we prefer the Sunset Cocktail cruise as it's the perfect amount of food and drinks. This last trip, we took the whole family for the express snorkel trip. It's a shorter trip, which worked perfectly for the younger kids and didn't tie up a big amount of island time. Captain Nick and his crew was all about making sure all had a great time while keeping safety at the top of mind. They guaranteed we'd see turtles... we did! Immediately. I accused them of being remote controlled because they were there right on cue! I'm not a big snorkel guy, but I had a blast. We'll keep returning to Sea Maui. Greatest crew on Maui !!

On our vacation to Maui last week, we took trips out to the sea with Sea Maui twice. Our first trip…read moreout was an adults-only family excursion while the kids hung out with their grandma and auntie. The catamaran was pretty sweet, with some really comfy bean bags overlooking the edge out to the ocean. While we did occasionally get splashed in this area, it was worth the unobstructed view of the sunset and the breeze in my hair. The crew was especially sweet and treated all of us like absolute royalty. A note to those who are prone to motion sickness: do not try to be brave and only wear sea bands thinking you'll be okay. Take your Dramamine an hour before you board the catamaran. While the first half of our dinner cruise was fine with my motion sickness, the second half of the trip left me feeling really queasy around dinner service time. This made me very sad. This was no fault of the crew, and 100% my fault for thinking I could tough it out. If you are ill-prepared, the crew has ginger ale, club soda and ginger chews to help. Speaking of dinner, the few bites I was able to eat on our first trip were fantastic: a full dinner buffet prepared by Cafe Jai. The salmon was perfectly tender, as was the short rib. The caesar salad was just the right amount of tangy (and the extra dressing was really great on the salmon as well.) I'm not sure what kind of sauce was on the crispy seasoned potatoes but they were absolutely delightful. And of course, the crown on top of a delicious meal was the mini brownie cup we were served for dessert before we wrapped up the trip. Our second trip (where I was prepared with some Dramamine) was a memorial for our grandparents, where we released their cremains at sea with eco-urns. I must say that the crew handled everything wonderfully. We had the full bar, another beautiful buffet spread including some delicious crispy chicken, a pesto pasta salad, pulled beef sliders, and rolls. After we said our emotional goodbyes, we were given rose petals to release into the ocean. We even received certificates after the trip that gave us the coordinates of where my grandparents cremains were released. I seriously cannot thank Sea Maui enough for giving my family a truly memorable experience on our trip to Maui. They made our trip so special. A million thanks for the kindness!

From the moment we stepped on the boat, their energy was amazing, friendly, fun, and so welcoming. They created such a great vibe that everyone immediately felt relaxed and excited for the adventure. We brought a whole crew of kids with us, and at every moment we felt completely safe and taken care of. Angel and Rachel were attentive, patient, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and ready to explore. It gave us so much peace of mind as parents, which allowed us to truly enjoy the experience. They knew all the best snorkel spots and made the day feel special and personalized. More than anything, they treated us like family. It didn't feel like just a tour, it felt like we were out on the water with friends. We cannot recommend these ladies enough. If you're thinking about booking, do it! We're already counting down the days until we can come back next year.

They were of course knowledgeable but they were also very service oriented, continuously asking us and the other guests if we needed anything, offering to bring us drinks, talking our trash etc. they were also very friendly and we had some good conversations with them. The trip started with delicious breakfast croissants and cinnamon rolls, the snorkeling was great at molikini, my kids and husband enjoyed jumping off the side of the boat while there as well, the lunch afterwards was plentiful with so many delicious options, we all loved sitting on the net/trampoline on the way back, and getting a little sailing in. We just really had an awesome day at sea. We'd definitely book with them again on our next trip!
