Goofy Foot Maui Surf School Group & Private Surfing Lessons at Ukumehame Beach

Excellent private surfing lessons!

Reviewed by: Winston

Thanks Veltra for being our booking agency for Goofy Foot Surf School in Maui. We had Inaldo as an instructor and he was great. I booked a private surf sesh for my girlfriend and I for the early morning. It was a surreal experience, as we were the first two people out surfing for the day and it seemed very private and exclusive. As the day went on, I saw other surfing groups coming out from other surfing schools, all of which had like 5-10 people per instructor. Goofy Foot Surf School gets a 10/10.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Amazing!

Reviewed by: Tony

This was the best snorkel trip we have ever done! The crew was extremely kind and helpful. The boat was small with about 30 people on board (versus boats with 100+), which made snorkeling and the boat ride very nice as we all had our own space. Molokini was amazing. I have never seen such great coral and fish. The visibility was like seeing in HD. At Turtle Town, the one crew member (I can't remember his name, I'm sorry!) did an amazing reef tour where he pointed out different fish, gave lots of facts, and helped us try to swim under the arches. He even pointed out a white tip reef shark! And of course, we saw some turtles. Mollie, the photographer, got lots of amazing pictures of us diving and gave us an amazing deal. She even gave us lots of helpful tips for our road to Hana experience. The food was great and I truly can not stress how amazing the crew was in making this experience one of the most memorable. I would do this again!

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Pleasant, relaxing

Reviewed by: Oscareen

The crew was awesome! The snorkeling was a great experience. Yes, it’s VERY EARLY in the morning, but with the air temperature being cooler, the water feels warmer, which is a plus.
Saw many different kinds of fishes, and a turtle and an octopus.
It was relaxing just floating there and watching the ocean life.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

I would, hands down, do this again!

Reviewed by: Ashley

I would, hands down, do this again. The crew was amazing, friendly and great with the 2 kids my group had with (ages 1 and 3). My son did snuba, said it was awesome and the instructor was great and friendly, easy to chat with. The Captain stopped to let us see whales (baby, mom and escort), it was absolutely great. There was a very knowledgeable crew member who gave tid bits of facts throughout the tour and another crew member who helped point out turtles a well as gave pointers for going under the water. Food was good too. Nothing fancy, but it did not disappoint. Not to mention mai tais were delicious. Can't wait to book again!

Reviewed by: PJJ

We had the best time! Loved our time snorkeling and going to see turtles. Saw a huge turtle. Biggest I have ever seen. It was great that there were only a few of us on the boat that day. Would have loved to have a grill for burgers, but lunch was good nonetheless.

Not quite satisfied

Went out on Aqua Adventures and felt they were a bit understaffed for the amount of passengers they had. Pre paid for Snuba but my husband didn’t even try. No contact for refund. Food served was minimal and not the best quality.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Great experience, sighted lot of whales on the way, felt one of the staff member little racist attitude

Reviewed by: anonymous

Overall, great experience with snorkeling tour. I would have given 5-starts other than the two issues, 1 - One of the staff was little rude (white blonde seemed little racist attitude), however everyone else on the staff was super nice, 2 - the second issue, snorkeling place was little muggy water and it was little hard to sight any turtles, even though I saw one but my family couldn't see any. However, we sighted bunch of whales on the way, with couple of them very close to our boat (little scary for few seconds) which was awesome.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Best Ever

Reviewed by: Cindy

It couldn't have been any better. The crew was fantastic. We visited two sites to snorkel and snuba. The extra cost to snuba is worth every penny. They accommodated my son's disability and made his trip fantastic. The captain's sense of humor kept you smiling. Everything we did felt safe so it was easy to just relax and enjoy the experience. The Aqua Adventure is the crew to go with.

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Aqua Adventures Was Amazing!!!

Reviewed by: Aaron Roberts

The crew for Aqua Adventures was spectacular. I'm disabled, I can walk with a brace but mainly use a wheelchair. They helped me on to the boat and carried my chair on to the boat. They made sure I was included in every activity, including the bonus whale sightings we have seen. One crew member helped me get fin on and off each time and made sure that I was able to find the turtles during the coral city visit. The captain was upbeat and had wonderfully bad jokes but made sure everyone knew exactly was going on and safe in their Adventures. The food was great too!

Wind & white caps? No prob

Reviewed by: Liz

Fun experience! Windy on the day we went so we couldn’t go to the crater. Boat is clean. Crew friendly, professional, organized and helpful; prepared us for everything and kept on schedule. The food was alright, kept us fed and hydrated for all the snorkeling.

Tons of fish in west Maui where we stopped. Two spots. We even went to a turtle cleaning station! Saw a honu or two.

We had a great time. Maybe next time we can check out the crater :)

Molokini Crater & Turtle Arches Snorkeling Tour & Snuba Dive - Aqua Adventures

Must do activity with these guys..!!

Reviewed by: Nitin Lakhotia

A first-time snorkeler with basic swimming experience, they taught us really well how to do it right from basics & also kept an eye to guide us in the ocean. Only regret is they should allow to hold the rope anchored for people who panic in the vast ocean, coz it takes 5-10 minutes for people with no swimming background to get familiar with the unpredictable ocean. My wife was not allowed to touch the rope & she couldn't enjoy snorkeling with us for the rest of the trip. Good lunch & breakfast. Overall they do good if you know a bit. Great locations..unfortunately no turtles.

Sea turtles!

Reviewed by: Jess

I got to see multiple sea turtles and it was amazing. Staff were very kind, funny, and helpful throughout the activity. We couldn't go to Molokini because of wind which was shame, but I still loved it and enjoyed a lot! Seating at the front deck of the boat was also a pretty cool experience. They also had a photographer! We paid to get the photos and was super worth it. Thank you!

South Maui Kayaking & Turtle Snorkeling Tour with Seasonal Whale Watching

We saw so many turtles!!

Reviewed by: Deed

This was a wonderful adventure that added such fun to our stay in Maui. We stayed on the west side but made the 1 hour drive to make memories. And what great memories and pictures we have! This was the perfect amount of time! A total of 3 hours. Some paddling and some snorkeling. For a family of 4, two of which were kids, this was the best kayak trip around. Our guide/teacher made the trip even better. Jake was knowledgeable about the area, made conversation and connections with everyone in our group. He was very confident and thorough with what to expect and what we would need to do to maintain safety. He engaged the kids and even brought of ocean life for them to explore!

Reviewed by: Tessie L

I am not a good swimmer and had never done snorkeling before. The crew was so great and was watching the poor swimmers and was always next to us giving instructions and reassurance. I felt so safe and before I realize it, I was able to swim and snorkel with confidence by myself. I had so much fun snorkeling and enjoying the fishes and nature under sea. It was definitely an amazing experience!

West Maui Shore Scuba Diving Tour for Certified Divers - Extended Horizons

Outstanding

Reviewed by: Pooja

I am so thrilled to post this review! I had an amazing time with Ema. She was soooo patient with me! Honestly, being a beginner, I panicked when I went underwater the first time. But Ema was super attentive, and immediately helped me out! I calmed myself, went inside, and enjoyed it thoroughly. I don't think anyone could have taught me better than her!
P.S. I don't know swimming, but I not only survived but enjoyed it!
I think everyone can, but provided you follow the instructions and let the instructor know about your discomfort at the right time.
