This is the only snorkeling business I would recommend in Maui. Not because the others are bad but…read morebecause Seafire is so exceptional. Several reasons: 1. Their location at Kihei Boat Ramp in South Maui means that you have an extra hour in the water so you can make one more stop compared to the other snorkeling charters who leave from further away and you spend most of the time going and coming vs in the water. 2. Their guides are so good, respectful, fun and full of knowledge about the underwater things you'll be seeing. 3. Their raft holds 12 people (I think) so it's much more intimate. This was worth every penny. You'll never forget when you first drop into the warm Maui waters and the incredible underwater sights you'll see. Make sure to book well in advance.

The captain and crew were not only extremely knowledgeable about the boat, the island, and the sea life, but they also made the entire trip feel personal and welcoming. You can truly tell it's a tight-knit team--the same crew providing full service with food and drinks throughout made it feel seamless and special. Their attention to detail and genuine care really captured the spirit of aloha. It was an unforgettable part of our Maui adventure, and we're so grateful we got to experience it. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something truly memorable on the island. Mahalo again for such an amazing day!

The breakfast and lunch were first class, the equipment was a high end brand and in good shape. The unlimited drinks were the real thing. Not watered down like I've had on other excursions. But it wasn't a party boat. Family friendly and the snorkeling was great! I'm super glad we chose Ali Nui for our snorkeling adventure.

From the moment we stepped on the raft, the crew made safety and comfort a top priority--clear instructions, secure seating, and constant check-ins that made everyone feel confident and cared for. The early morning conditions were perfect we watched the full moon set and saw an amazing sunrise. There was calm water, cool air, fewer boats, and incredible whale activity. We saw multiple whales breaching,tail slapping and pectoral fin slapping all while feeling completely safe and well supported. The captain expertly adjusted speed and positioning to match the ocean conditions, which made a huge difference. This tour strikes the perfect balance between excitement and comfort. If you're in your wondering if a raft tour is too intense--don't hesitate. Redline Rafting delivers a thrilling experience without ever feeling rough or unsafe. Truly unforgettable and highly, highly recommend! Date of experience: February 2026

This was the only time I went snorkeling in the last 35 years; the vendor didn't have prescription goggles available.

We found Maui kayak through a search and Maui Kayak Adv. had great reviews and it seemed to be on the side of the island we were on. Bonus... they are a B Corp. (look that up if you don't know) A company who gives back is super important and they are a small business, extra bonus. We had reservations for one day but the swells were a little "extra" so they called us to reschedule for another day. We had a little wiggle room and I appreciate that they cared about safety and even visibility in the water. Communication was super easy either via call or text and I was always updated on location of meet up. We were super lucky to have Heather as our guide. She was super nice and had great vibes and was super knowledgeable about the ocean life and geography around us. She took us to great spots and we saw tons of turtles amongst all of the other tropical fishes both shy and "brave" She even took amazing pictures for us of creatures up close by free diving and we got to download them later. Out of our on of our water snorkel adventures on our trip this was our fave: Heather was just all around rad. So support a small business who gives back to the community, and the environment and has amazing customer service and experience. I recommend Maui Kayak Adventure 10000000% Ask for Heather as your guide
