    Maggie took great care of us. Very happy with the customer service, communication was quick and friendly. I had never been scuba diving and this was such a comfortable and easy learning environment, but they take their jobs seriously! I never felt more at ease after trying something for the first time! 11/10 would recommend! We were able to see breaching whales on the way to dive sites (seasonal), saw plenty of fish and coral sea snakes, a spotted eagle stingray, sharks and LOTs of sea turtles! Rose was our master diver and she really took the time and care to make sure we were safe and that we saw as much cool stuff as we could

    The owners, Mikhail and Maggie made this two-excursion dive trip the best they could possibly be. They knew where to go and brought the equipment and food to make our time together simply wonderful. The dive master, Rose was knowledgeable and friendly; refreshing experienced divers and facilitating our daughter's Open Water Scuba Certification. Each dive was better than the next, seeing and swimming with Maui's indigenous fish, coral, turtles and even a white tipped reef shark. Truly exceeded our expectations!

    We joined MPD for their first ever Private Charter to scuba dive Cathedrals near Lanai. Highly recommend if you want a more comfortable (not smashed in a boat with 20 divers) and personal experience. We had 7 people total on board and there was lots of room for more! Lunch was great! The boat is awesome and goes way faster than the typical dive boat. Got to lanai in about 40 minutes? It was a quick, smooth ride and no sea sickness! I enjoyed it so much that I'll be joining them this coming weekend for a ladies group dive over on Lanai! Can't wait to see what dives they offer in the future for the local community!

    Lahaina Paddleo Out 9/8/2023

    What a compassionate couple. After the Lahaina Fire in August 2023 Maggie and Mikal offered a ride to the paddle out a month after the fire. Without this kind offer I would have been on the shore instead of in the water. Mahalo nui loa for giving me the opportunity to experience such a beautiful event.

    Amazing private charter! We took our two brand new 11 year old divers (just got certified a month ago) and my dad who needed some extra TLC with some bad knees.... they were so patient! They think of everything.... tons of different snacks and drinks, rain jackets, dry bags etc. they really accommodate you! It was worth every penny to have these knowledgeable people take us around Maui to dive! The dive master was so great! I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thanks so much!!!!

    The smile on my toddlers face exemplifies the rich experience we had with Maui Pacific Divers. We took a sunset ride from Maalaea to Molokini. Mikal and Maggie were so very lovely! Warm, thoughtful, and very knowledgeable, they made us feel like family. Upon arrival Mikal handed over a whale toy to my son, which he connected with and enjoyed throughout the trip. Their boat was much larger than I expected from the photos, and I really enjoyed hearing about their experience building it. We had a wonderful spread of "pupus" that we enjoyed while in Molokini's cove, and then had a enriching ride around the islet to learn about the birds and the rock formation. If you are looking for a charter boat that gives you a personalized and knowledgeable experience I highly recommend Maui Pacific Divers.

    We live on Maui and we're always seeking exciting, safe, and "get people out of there element" adventures for our many family and friend visitors... all we have to do is make one call and book Maui Pacific Divers! Maggie and Capt Mikal and crew are just simply COOL on top of making your fun top priority. We like to go between channels in open water and this boat that Mikal designed and built is SOOO smooth... and capable. We dive and snorkel the world in search whales and dolphins and wild critters and ADVENTURE... having these guys in our home waters makes it SO easy!! Trust some locals!!!

    Wonderful sunset trip to Molokini. We loved the gorgeous rock formation on the backside and the birdwatching on the slopes on the inside. It was great to be the only vessel present as well. Maggie and Mikal are knowledgeable friendly and great hosts. The night sky on the way back was amazing as were the twinkling shore lights. All in all a memorable experience which I would highly recommend, especially for those who have lived here, or are frequent visitors and looking for something different.

    We just got back from a truly amazing trip with Maui Pacific Divers! We did two dives, First Cathedral and Fish Rock. The boat was great. Probably fits 20 although today there were only 6 divers, plus 3 dive masters and a captain. Lunch was good, massive sandwiches and limitless drinks. Our first dive was one of the best I have ever done. 2 pods of dolphins, sharks, crazy swim thrus and more! The crew was great. Very friendly and took care of everything. Good safety gear and DAN O2 on board. One note, we booked the trip through "In 2 SCUBA" who told us what slip number to go to. When we arrived the staff at Maui Pacific Divers told us what had happened. I would recommend booking directly with Maui Pacific Divers and taking any 3rd parties out of the loop.

    Great dives thanks guys!!!

    I dove with these guys and they were awesome. Captain and Dive leader were extremely competent and made for a great experience. I will be using them for all my future trips to Maui and have been talking them up to all my dive buddies. There is a better option now on Maui!! Will

    We enjoyed diving with Maui Pacific Divers off Lanai!  Very professional, very fun diving!!!

When you get on board they have a light breakfast with fruit, croissants and muffins that you can snack on, as well as fruit juice. The ride out, they explain some safety stuff and how the day is going to run. There are 2 floors to the boat with the upstairs being much more open. There were only about 30 people the day we went but I believe they have up to 100, so a more crowded day may have a different experience. Despite being in November, we ended up seeing several whales coming to the surface (apparently they are in abundance come January). They provide snorkel gear and fins, but you are more than welcome to bring your own (we borrow fins only as we brought our own masks). They provide a simple anti fog spray which worked great. They let us snorkel for about 2 hours in the surrounding area asking us to stay within 50 yards of the boat with a buddy. The staff answered all our questions about what fish we were seeing and recommendation for how to see the best fish. There is also a glass bottom that you can climb down a ladder in the boat to see the fish without going in the water. They served lunch while docked so you could eat while you took a break from snorkeling. It was fish tacos with a selection of fish, pork or being burger meat. They had a slaw and quinoa side and some chips. Nothing fancy but o found it delicious after working up an appetite snorkeling. They had cameras for rent (extremely expensive so I'd bring your own), a photographer that took picture you could purchase for a fee ($80 for all the pictures she took of us, again a little pricey), wet suit tops for rent ($10 each) and special snorkel masks if you are near sighted (I believe this had no additional charge). The boat was pretty new, clean and open which was nice. I would 100% go out with this company again.

Snorkeling experience was amazing but the differentiator was the staff and the food....just an awesome staff all around, so helpful and they actually cared / went out of their way to help the people that paid for the trip. The breakfast was hard boiled eggs, fruit, muffins, croissants....sounds basic but it was really quality - not crap food. Lunch was fantastic - fish tacos, pork tacos, vegetarian tacos or hot dog - grilled it right on the boat. Toppings were great - it was just good fresh food. Super impressed with the whole 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!

I chose this particular tour because it was a smaller group size and I did not want to feel crowded or overwhelmed on a boat with strangers. It was the perfect amount of people, and my husband and I ended up chatting with most of the other passengers, having lots in common. Our captain was Caiden, who was extremely kind, informative, and entertaining. We also had crewmates Sienna, Diego, and Jim looking out for us and making sure that we were comfortable and had all of our wants and needs met. I felt completely safe and comfortable the entire trip and I appreciated having a certified lifeguard on boat with us. The snorkeling experience was phenomenal and being pregnant, it made me feel so calm and relaxed. I appreciated learning the history of the two various locations we snorkeled at and the opportunity to see a sea turtle. The ship itself was pristine, and the restrooms were some of the cleanest I have ever experienced on a boat. The breakfast and lunch that they served us was tasty, and the macadamia nut cookies at the end were the perfect sweet treat. I appreciated that they were able to offer me mocktails since I cannot drink at this time, and those were tasty as well. This experience was worth every penny and I would definitely come back and do it again.

    I booked a snorkeling tour for one person in March 2026. Both my booking confirmation through…read moreGetYourGuide and the confirmation from Hawaii Nautical clearly reflected that the reservation was for one guest. The evening before my tour, I called to confirm everything. During that call, the representative noticed what appeared to be a duplicate reservation and assured me she would cancel the duplicate booking. She also recommended that I contact GetYourGuide to verify I would not be double charged. GetYourGuide confirmed that my reservation had always been for only one person and that I had only been charged once. Despite this, approximately two hours before my scheduled departure, I received a call informing me that my tour was being canceled because there were not enough passengers. I even offered to purchase a second seat so the tour could proceed, but that offer was declined. What is most frustrating is not simply that the tour was canceled, but that this issue could have been communicated much earlier. If the company knew they were unlikely to meet their minimum passenger requirement, there was no reason to wait until two hours before departure. By that point, I had already arranged transportation, incurred cancellation fees on my ride, and lost the opportunity to book another snorkeling excursion during my vacation. Yes, I was refunded, but a refund is the bare minimum when a company cancels a service for reasons entirely within its control. The last-minute cancellation created unnecessary inconvenience and wasted valuable vacation time. If you're booking with Hawaii Nautical, especially as a solo traveler, be aware that your reservation may be canceled at the last minute if they don't have enough passengers. I would have appreciated more transparency and significantly more notice.

The crew worked together like a well-oiled machine and made the entire experience seamless. A quick tip before you arrive: parking is $7, and you absolutely need to pay it. There were tow trucks literally sitting in the parking lot waiting for people who didn't pay. It definitely wasn't worth risking getting your rental car towed over $7! The food was surprisingly good! Breakfast included pastries, fresh fruit, muffins, a coffee bar, delicious juices, and water. They also served healthy snacks after snorkeling with fresh cucumbers, sliced bell peppers, carrots, broccoli, and hummus. Lunch was a choice of pulled pork sandwiches or deli sandwiches with chips, sodas, and other drinks. After snorkeling, alcoholic beverages were available for purchase as well. The boat itself was fantastic, with three bathrooms, two water slides, a jumping platform off the second deck, and even reef-safe sunscreen provided for everyone. The snorkeling was absolutely incredible! The coral was beautiful, and there was so much marine life. We saw countless tropical fish, two octopuses, a squid, needlefish, and more sea turtles than we could count. It truly felt like swimming in an aquarium. A special shoutout goes to Corine, who was the absolute highlight of our trip. Unfortunately, several people became seasick during the ride, and she cared for every single one of them with such kindness and compassion--bringing water, Dramamine, napkins, and constantly checking on them. She never seemed bothered and genuinely made those guests feel cared for. She was amazing! One tip: if you're prone to motion sickness, take Dramamine before the trip. We did see quite a few people getting sick over the side of the boat because the ocean can be rough. This excursion exceeded all of our expectations. Great food, an amazing crew, a beautiful boat, and some of the best snorkeling we've ever experienced. 10/10--we would absolutely do it again!

Ok, I mean the eggs, muffins and croissants were awesome but can we talk about the tacos!!! Bro! The pork tacos were incredible. The mahi mahi tacos were also very good. The pineapple salsa was a must have! And this was all before I had 2 mai Tais... so this isn't my taste buds under the influence. 3. The charter itself was wonderful. The boat was comfortable, there was plenty of space. We went to 2 different spots and were given plenty of time to explore. The music was on point, a little Fleetwood Mac, Green Day, etc. it was eclectic alt chill. Legit they could make their own Spotify playlist, 4. It's not the cheapest, or the most expensive. But I don't know how it gets better than this and I think it was 100% worth the money. So a huge thank you to the crew of Maui magic.
