If you are looking for a snorkeling/whale watching experience, this is the one for you! All facets of the trip lead you to a perfect time on the water.
The captain took us to a beautiful spot for snorkeling located on a coral reef that had clear waters and many species of fish. It was our first time snorkeling. The crew taught us the basics, guided us while in the water, and shared how best to see the fish. Having a waterproof camera helped us capture the fun we were having as a family. We were sure glad we had it, especially when it came to the turtle sightings!
The boat, the Pride of Maui was well equipped with all the gear we needed, including multiple sizes of fins and snorkeling goggles. It was a comfortable boat, with storage under seats on the upper deck. Great views of the waters with whale sightings even during an off season. The slide is a must! You go zipping down and fly into the water! Never gets old!
The lunch was tasty, plump hotdogs and cheeseburgers were cooked over a grill and served warm with all the fixings. If you are a vegetarian and/or gluten intolerant, it’s best to call ahead to let them know so your needs will be covered. They are ready to make your lunch perfect for you if they have a heads up. There were several kinds of soft drinks and fruit punch along with alcoholic beverages for adults. The Miatais were the best!
All in all, a highly recommended choice for all ages!

Our day on The Pride of Maui was Perfect! The crew was helpful and knowledgeable as well as patient and kind, help and assistance were always there yet we were given the freedom to be independent to make the day even better. We saw plenty of fish, turtles, and whales! The food was fabulous and they had plenty to go around. I will recommend!
Aloha,
Thank You for your kind words. Our goal is to exceed the expectations of our guests everyday. Your stating that it was PERFECT is exactly what we strive for. We are so pleased to hear that you had a PERFECT day with us.
Mahalo for joining us.

I didnt really know what to expect...
What we got was a large, clean, well equipped vessel. A very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great weather and phenomenal views of several different pods of humpback whales.
We could not have asked for a better experience!

This was a very great experience for me and my family! The servers on the boat were very kind and helpful. When we got to the place where we snorkeled I had a lot of problems with my snorkeling set and had to ask for a new one many times, they were still nice and helpful and wanted me to be able to snorkel with out any problems. We had 45 min of snorkeling time which was the perfect amount of time for me! I even got to see a turtle, which was a big plus. The BBQ was ok with limited options, but tasted good. On the way back we whale watched and saw several even though it was off season. The boat was clean and bathrooms were also. If we came back we would stay with Pride of Maui!

The cruise started off at the harbor where we checked-in, waiting to board. Once we were seated, the boat undocked and we were on our way to watch some whales. The narration was the best part of the trip. The narrators were very informative and would tell us stories. They were always on the lookout for whales and try their best to take the boat as close them as possible but it was our mis-fortune that around that time we could only spot a few whales that too for just a couple of seconds. On the other hand, the views were surreal from the middle of the ocean. They guarantee a sighting and that's exactly what we got but I wish it was for longer.

It was my daughter’s first time whale watching and I felt it was a great experience for my little one. We were able to see a couple of whales from far away, but since it was not during the peak whale watching season, we couldn’t get the full whale watching experience. I would love to come again during the peak season around February, which is what I heard is when there is the most whale activity. Other than that the view was great and I would recommend whale watching to anyone who haven’t experienced it yet. The water may be a little choppy at times so I would recommend people taking motion sickness medication for people who might be sensitive to motion sickness.

The “Pride of Maui’s captain and crew members were helpful and very friendly! The vessel was quite roomy and the BBQ lunch was great. We’d seen humpback whales on the way to snorkel at The Coral Gardens, where the water was beautiful and the fish were coming right up to the vessel! Great job “Pride of Maui”!

Once we were aboard the Pride of Maui, the captain and crew made us feel right at home. We were lucky to see humpback whales just a few minutes into the trip. How exciting! The grilled burgers had our mouths watering but first, we had to anchor st Coral Gardens to snorkel. Lots of fish to see and the weather cooperated so it wasn't windy or cold. The slide on the boat was a great extra. The crew was always ready to help with any of our questions. All in all, we have a very good excursion with the Pride of Maui boat and crew. We definitely would book again.

crew on the tour were professional and courteous right from the start. We were all anxious to see whales and our boat got right out there and we started seeing whale spouts. The boat was always on top of where the whales were. Through out the entire ride, the captain was incredibly knowledgeable and answered all questions. The boat itself was well stocked and very clean. There were plenty of tables inside and on top, as well as seats on the front and back. Everyone had a place to sit and could see the action from anywhere on the boat. The end of the tour was the most incredible. Two whales swam literally under the boat and came out in front of the bow. Seeing how big these amazing creatures were so close was a once in a life time experience. Both whales came up for air at the front of the boat. The whales seemed as curious about us as we were about them, and hung out around our boat for a good fifteen minutes. I highly recommend this tour and their company for an incredible whale watching tour!! The experience is excellent for couples and families with children of all ages. My one bit of advice would be to show up twenty five minutes before check in as it was very busy and took some time to find a parking spot.

My little family of 3, husband and my 3 month old, went on this whale watching excursion and it was the highlight of our trip! I was very excited to find out that infants are welcome aboard. The entire crew was very informative, fun, and did everything they could to help the everyone spot some whales. We were so lucky to cruise with hundreds of spinner dolphins right below us. We even got close enough to spot a whale even though we were told it was early in the season. O would recommend bringing binoculars if you have some and a jacket because it definitely gets chilly and windy out there. Thank you to the entire crew for making my dream of seeing the whales come true!

当日の状況を現地催行会社に確認させていただきましたところ、弊社アクティビティページに記載がございました通り、

新婚旅行で利用させていただきました。
基本のツアーとしては、モロキニ島の周辺でのシュノーケル+スヌーバ体験。
ここでは正直そんなに魚はいないなというのが正直な感想でした。
その後で海亀の出るスポットに移動して、追加料金でシュノーケルorスヌーバができるということでした。
最初は全部込みでの値段だと思っていただけにがっかりする気持ちもありましたが、結果としては2匹の海亀と一緒に泳ぐこともできましたし、それ以外にも偶然的な要素はあったかと思いますがイルカやクジラも船の上からですが見ることができたので満足のいくツアーになりました。
基本的にツアーのインストラクターも陽気な人たちだったので、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。

今回家族でマウイ島はじめて行きました。
ルアウショーを海沿いでは鑑賞で来たらと思い探していたところこのツアーを知りました。
カアナパリのホテルからも車で10分でとても近く、駐車場は小さいが近隣にすぐ停めれたので便利でした。
ショーが始まるまでまでも、ドリンク飲み放題やポキのお料理等雰囲気だけでも楽しめました。
ショーは、ステージが少し遠かったこともあり、
やや地味に見えましたが。。ファイアーダンスもあればもっと盛り上がったように思います。
総合的にはかなりオススメです!
