Crew were excellent! We had a great time. Didn’t realize were were going to see turtles, and we saw a ton! Really quite and experience. Only negative is that the area didn’t have a lot of colorful fish, but the turtle experience outweighed that

The crew is amazing and down to earth if you are looking for a good time with some good people this is the spot to go.
We had a blast and saw TONS of wildlife - we even saw a couple of reef sharks. The crew was amazing and helpful. They had lots of fun snacks and drinks. This was the perfect amount of time in the water for all of us. We will definitely come back!
This may sound silly but the food was the best I have had all week. The crew were very attentive to everyone’s needs and all seemed to have a great time. The boat was very easy to navigate and really clean. I would use Sea Maui again for sure!
Great crew. Fantastic experience
I love snorkelling, but I get terribly sea sick. This was a perfect amount of time on the boat and in the water. I didn’t get sick and didn’t feel rushed. The boat and crew were wonderful, and the open bar was a nice bonus. We also saw like 6+ sea turtles. Amazing!!!
Wonderful staff they were fun, friendly and informative. Swam with alot of turtles. Felt safe and gear was good
Efficient service getting onto and off the boat. The team managing our experience was the best. Shout out to James, Brooke & Nick who guided us, provided instruction and made the trip really fun. Would definitely recommend!
Fantastic snorkeling and the crew was amazing!! Saw so many turtles!!! Would absolutely recommend!
It was an awesome experience!! The crew were amazing! Jen and Brenan were incredible. Highly recommend!
Highly recommend. Great staff. Lots of fish and turtle viewing.
The best experience! We saw turtles, tons of fish and even a few sharks laying on the bottom of the ocean. The crew was the best! Jen, Lainey, and captain james were the best!
We had a great time. Beautiful catamaran, friendly staff, lots of turtles and fish. Easy to find, highly recommend if you want to see turtles or just relax on the boat
Amazing experience. The crew had everything well organized and prepared even for our small kids. We got to swim with sea turtles and it was amazing!
The boat ride there and back is great! Crew is awesome. They take you to places that are not overly crowded, sure to have a great time. We saw so many fish, and turtles!!! This is our second time with Sea Maui 2! We will do this again!
Simply amazing! We would recommend this experience to anyone.
Guides were amazing. We all had a lot of fun. This is at great option if you don’t want to do a full day tour.
Great experience. Wouldn’t have minded more explanation as to where we were going and what we were seeing under the water.
Such fun! We saw lots of Sea Turtles! The length of this tour was perfect for our 9 year old daughter and the crew was great! Lots of snacks and drinks. Highly recommend.
The snorkeling was the best I have ever done. We saw 7 turtles and many surfaced. The crew was excellent. They changed the location of the launch due to safety concerns about the surf so we had to get there earlier, but we really appreciated that. This was communicated to us the day before. Brennan stayed on a surfboard in the water like a lifeguard and answered any questions we had while we snorkeled. The other crew members steered people to Brenan or poured drinks for us when we returned. Considering the number of people of varying ages and abilities, they did a fantastic job. Great experience!
Super friendly, attentive, great value. We swam with fish & turtles, and the captain stopped on our way back to watch a pod of 40+ dolphins. The crew were so nice and when we return we will book with them again.
A fabulous experience! The crew were safety conscious, friendly and fun loving. 2 of us were experienced and 2 were newcomers. Both couples chose 1200 feet and it was a breathtaking view! Registration was easy, getting to and from the boat was easy too. Highly recommend!
This was my first time snorkeling and it was in a absolutely awesome experience! The crew was fabulous, helpful, fun, and knowledgeable. The equipment was clean and worked perfectly. I highly recommend this experience.
Awesome experience! Professional crew and thoughtful presentation. We enjoyed our first snorkel so much we went back for a second. Would highly recommend!!
Outstanding crew. Emily and Nico gave me the co finance to jump in and go for it. Got to see a baby shark, turtles and so many fish species.
Experience was phenomenal; apart from snorkeling, we get to see a tortoise and a herd of dolphins jumping along our boat. Big bang for buck. It was an express snorkeling with decent time and only one spot to visit; and my son loved the activity, including watching a tortoise go by. Boat crew (team of 3) were amazing, providing timely instructions, drinks & snacks during the sail. Crowd size was decent and everyone enjoyed their time onboard, with music and drinks through out the sail.
What an AMAZING day! We took our family of 10 and everyone enjoyed. The crew was knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. We saw tons of turtles, tropical fish and stingrays. It was awesome.
Highly recommend. Guides are just some dudes that love life and want everyone to have a good time.
The crew was great made everyone feel like family. The boat was super modern and equipment was great location that we went to was awesome.
Surf was hit so we had to be shuttled to a safer location. Found the perfect snorkeling spot with tons of fish and turtles.
Our crew was awesome! We had some decent swells and rain, but they got us out to a great location safely and with plenty of fun to be had. Definitely recommend!
We had such an amazing experience with Sea Maui 3 years ago that we knew when we came back to Maui we had to book with them again. Some companies struggled after the fire 3 years ago and we were thankful they were still here! Due to the south swell we had to be shuttled to the north side of black rock, but they were great in getting us there and back and kept everything on time. The crew (Nick, Niko and Emily) were awesome. They were great with all on board and very helpful. Had us laughing and enjoying the time. Sea Maui is not like the other "cattle call" tours that jam people on a boat and take you to the place that 5 other companies are at. They find small locations and you feel like you have the place to yourself! Gear was in good condition and were quick to assist if something wasn't working. I know the next time we're back in Kaanapali we will be looking to book another tour with them. A truly hidden gem of the island!
The operators made my wife and I feel totally relaxed with their communication before and during the outing. My wife snorkeled for the first time, and all the credit goes to the pilot and crew. Much Thanks,
This was actually amazing!! A perfect snorkel despite the rain with wind and surf. We snorkeled at the cliffs instead of the original location, it was an hour in the water with a few turtles and dolphins on the ride back. This was so different from anything I expected and the fact the crew kept us safe and made it a wonderful experience was everything!!!! I’m so happy we did this excursion.
This was one of the best snorkels I’ve ever done! Friendly staff, turtles galore, beautiful and roomy boat, perfect amount of time.
Absolutely amazing experience! Highlight of our trip. Value for the money, especially with the included alcoholic beverages. The crew was fantastic!!!!!
The staff was super awesome and kind. We saw tons of turtles and fish. Good for a quick trip but would have loved more time. If you have smaller kids and this is new to you, this would be wonderful! If you are slightly more advanced/ older kids you might want to do the longer trip.
This was our first time snorkeling and we had a lot of fun. We saw a bunch of turtles. The crew was great. Tommy and his mates (sorry I forget the other 2 names ) were very friendly and made sure everyone had a good time. Would def recommend this trip
What an amazing experience. We took our 8 yrs old kid and although he freaked out in the beginning (snorkel gear was different for him) it was the highlight of his trip. The price was great - which included snacks and beverages. I appreciated that a staff member in the ocean kept checking in on us, it made us feel taken care of. I would definitely book this excursion again.
The experience was good. However, it is important to give everyone the option for a life vest even if they can swim.
I was very apprehensive about trying snorkeling for the first time considering I am not a strong swimmer and easy to panic, but the crew on this excursion made me feel at ease from the beginning. (This even includes the smiling, friendly check-in attendant at the kiosk.) Highly recommend giving Sea Maui Express Snorkel a try!
I’ve been to Hawaii many times but this adventure with turtles made my trip and have immediately think perhaps I should do so again before I leave ! Best time ever!
We had such a wonderful time on this snorkel trip! I highly recommend for any first time snorkelers and kids/adults of all ages. It was a perfect amount of time. We saw dolphins, fish, sharks, sting rays, and swam with so many sea turtles!!
Such an amazing experience! The crew was friendly, fun, and made everyone feel safe and welcome. We saw sea turtles, tons of colorful fish, and had a fantastic time. Open bar, beautiful boat, and excellent service. One of the highlights of our Maui trip—highly recommend Sea Maui!
This was an amazing snorkel trip. We watched dolphins swim next to our boat, swam with the sea turtles, and watched some beautiful angel fish swim below. The guides made sure everyone had a wonderful time. There were plenty of snacks and drinks.
This was our 2nd time booking this excursion and it was somehow even better than the 1st! The guides are helpful and fun and the boat and equipment is well maintained and very clean. The excursion is the perfect use of time, 25 minute ride each way with about 60 minutes of snorkel time. We saw SO many dolphins, turtles, and fish of all kinds. Great tour, excellent company!
Sea Maui was a fantastic experience. The crew was amazing! We saw many sea turtles and fish. We will sail with Sea Maui again! Highly recommend!
Our snorkeling experience was so fun! The crew was so kind ans accommodating, and we were able to see amazing sea turtles and coral and fish! This was truly a great experience made seamless by the staff, thank you!
INCREDIBLE experience with the Sea Maui team. Brooke, Vinny, and Nick took us on an express tour to snorkel with the turtles at the collapsed Mala Pier. The crew members were friendly and knowledgeable, and we saw an incredible amount of turtles and other sea life, even a bonus pod of spinner dolphins. 10/10, would recommend.
Great crew, perfect amount of time! Our family will definitely return for another outing next year!!
