Seafire is probably the best snorkeling trip to Molokini that I have ever been on. 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!

We had an incredible experience aboard Calypso for the Molokini snorkel. Our 9-year-old son has a…read morerare progressive disease, is Deaf, and is wheelchair dependent, so we honestly never thought a snorkel excursion like this would be accessible for our family. From the moment we boarded, the crew made us feel not just accommodated, but genuinely welcomed. While transferring our son and his wheelchair onto the boat, I mentioned that he was Deaf and couldn't wear his hearing aids onboard. Without missing a beat, Clifford immediately began signing to him, explaining in ASL how he was going to lift and assist him. He continued using ASL with him throughout the trip. That kind of inclusion meant more to our family than I can put into words. Our son was even able to use the slide to get into the ocean to snorkel! When it was time to get back onboard, Sea Bass came right over to lift him from the water. And because he's 9, of course one trip down the slide wasn't enough. Sea Bass helped him get out of the water again and again, always with a smile and never once making him feel like helping him was a burden. He told us how happy he was to see our son enjoying himself and how much joy it brought him to help give him that experience. As parents of a child with significant disabilities, those words and that attitude stay with you. Another crew member repeatedly helped defog our goggles while we were in the ocean and even let our son rest on his surfboard when he needed a break from snorkeling. We live here on Maui, and this experience completely changed what we thought was possible for our family. We went into it wondering how accessible a snorkel excursion could really be and left already talking about bringing our family when they come to visit. Thank you, Calypso, Clifford, Sea Bass, and the entire crew. You didn't just make accommodations for our son--you made him feel like he belonged there. That made this a truly special experience for our whole family.

I would have liked more time in Turtle Town, but we were the last people off the boat and by the time we got to where the turtles were it was time to go back to the boat. So be sure and get off early if you want more time to snorkel. Also, the communication was excellent, I knew exactly where to be and was warmly greeted by a staff member and offered a cup of coffee while I wait to board the boat. Totally not necessary but very much appreciated. Excellent customer service!!

With the help of our expert instructor and pro diver, that changed within minutes. He guided them with patience and confidence, and they ended up enjoying every moment. They are already asking when we can go back out into the ocean. We saw a wide range of sea life, including colorful fish, beautiful corals, and a few turtles. We also learned about the history of Hawaii, fun facts about the area, and how to identify different species while we snorkeled. The underwater scavenger hunt was a creative touch that kept the kids excited throughout the tour. Our instructor was professional, knowledgeable, and even captured photos and videos of us underwater, which was a great bonus. Water and healthy snacks were provided after the tour, which we appreciated. If you have small children or if it is your first time snorkeling, I highly recommend this company. If you want a special moment out in the ocean, this is an excellent choice. I have joined other snorkeling groups before, but this was by far the best experience I have had.

Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable--not just about snorkeling, but about the ocean, marine life, and Maui itself. What really stood out was the personal attention. This isn't some packed boat tour--it's a small, shore-based experience that feels intimate and laid-back, but still totally professional. We saw sea turtles, tons of tropical fish, and even learned how to improve our snorkeling technique. Whether you're brand new to snorkeling or just want a more authentic, local-style experience, this is the tour to book. Can't recommend it enough--we'll absolutely be back next time we're on island!

Amazing Shore Dive Experience -- Ask for Joey!…read more We had an amazing shore dive with Joey at Dive Maui! We originally booked the Shark and Turtle Dive, but unfortunately, recent rain had washed out the visibility, so we had to change plans and head to Airport Beach instead. While we were initially disappointed, it turned out to be a fantastic alternative! We still got to see tons of beautiful tropical fish, eels, starfish, and other marine life. What really made the experience exceptional was Joey! He was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, patient, and genuinely passionate about what he does. Safety was clearly his top priority, and he took the time to thoroughly explain everything before getting in the water. Throughout the dive, he was attentive and reassuring, especially when we experienced some challenges with our masks and ear pressure. He never made us feel rushed or uncomfortable and made sure we felt safe and confident the entire time. Even though the original dive didn't work out as planned, Joey went above and beyond to make sure we had a memorable experience. It's guides like him who truly make the difference! We highly recommend Dive Maui, and if you're booking a dive, do yourself a favor and ask for Joey! You won't be disappointed. Mahalo, Joey, for helping make our Maui honeymoon that much more special!

Born and raised on Maui and I've never been snorkeling before, Captain Manu and Captain Reece made me feel comfortable for my first time snorkeling. Very knowledgeable about marine life and and very helpful. Both captains have years of experience in marine life and wildlife. They had bottles of water and snacks for our convenience if we didnt bring anything else. We were welcome to bring our own snacks and drinks as long as it wasn't in a glass container or alcohol since this is a family friendly activity. I never realized that snorkeling makes you hungry. But they had chips, so that helped a lot. Our first stop was Manele Bay. I told them I know how to swim but I wasn't comfortable without a floatation device over the reef because I didn't want to accidentally damage the reef. It was so beautiful and it changed my life, so much so that I'm adding snorkeling to my list of hobbies. Our second stop was Mala Ramp. Got to see turtles, white tip sharks, and fish that I normally see behind glass. We even had a dolphin pod following us. It was magical!! During this snorkel trip I learned that Captain Reece goes on research trips to study whale migration and habits. Capt. Reece also studies coral and does coral restoration here on Maui. Captain Manu was a volunteer at some of the lahaina distribution hubs after the fires and helped other survivors get back on their feet. I also learned that Capt Manu has been working on boats for over 15 years. So yes, the crew has a lot of experience. I want to go again soon and I can't wait for whale season to book again with Maui Adventure Cruises!! Thank you Captain Manu and Captain Reece!!! It was an incredible trip!!

The combination between the open ocean, boats, heat & waves is my guaranteed pathway to being seasick. However, if I were to compare how I feel on a boat virus a raft. I'm surprised to say I can handle the water better on the raft. Plus the crew is awesome too. Once any whales are spotted they always get the best angles with the photographer in mind.
