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

Awesome replacement for SCUBA

Reviewed by: Handa

I haven't ever SCUBA'd and this is as close as one could get with little to no experience snorkeling or diving. The staff was top notch in their customer service. There are some other tours out there for a bit less money but they have so many people on their tour. Aqua Adventures was amazing in that the smaller tour (mine was about 20 some people) allowed for a more personal experience. I would do it again. I had plenty of time at two locations to SNUBA and snorkel. The fresh sandwiches and not too sweet mai thais (sp?) were great. Thanks AA for the awesome time!

UFO Parasailing Tour from Kaanapali Beach (May - Dec) [Closed]

two thumbs up

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Parasailing is now my new favorite activity! Wow was this fun! I went by myself, but it is cool to know that I can bring a friend next time and actually go together at the same time. A couple did that and looked like they had fun with that too.

Awesome venue and fun ride. Will definitely book this tour again next year when I come through again!

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

The best surfing instructors

Reviewed by: da boyz

I have taken surf lessons before on other islands and with other surfing school. Goofy Foot is without a doubt the best instructions I have ever had. I was able to stand up and surf after 2 runs. My boys (10 & 6) caught on even faster. I'd recommend private lessons for couples and group of friends. You'll get more surfing time with private lessons. I would only go back and do intermediate lessons with these guys.

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

Won't You Take me to... Turtle Town

Reviewed by: Jared

Definitely do the Snuba! We was so many turtles at the second dive site. The first site was great for getting used to Snuba and seeing some interesting fish. One of the kids from the family on board with us saw a shark even!

There were so many turtles at the "cleaning stations" for the second dive site. They were popping up to breathe near the boat before we even got in the water! We got underwater cameras on the boat as well. The diver guiding us through the snuba snapped some closeup pictures of the turtles for us! Such a great experience!

The crew was fantastic. It was a smaller boat, so it wasn't like a cattle call getting on and off the boat. The captain even went out of his way on the way back so that we could see some whales! We got to see 6 whales total on the trip! Great experience! Great crews! I couldn't recommend this particular tour enough. Tremendous value for the money and a crew that was so much fun!

South Maui Kayaking & Turtle Snorkeling Tour with Seasonal Whale Watching

Would definitely do this again...

Reviewed by: Kristi

This was one of my and my husbands favorite things we did our first time out to Hawaii. We were thrilled we were in whale infested waters and it was super cool to have the whales literally swimming under us, as we saw and heard them. It was awesome one whale swam right under our guide (Griff) who got amazing photos of the whole experience!

Would definitely do this again during whale season! Snorkeling to see the green sea turtles was amazing too. And all by getting a little exercise, rowing. Nice!

Thanks Griff and South Pacific Kayak!

South Maui Kayaking & Turtle Snorkeling Tour with Seasonal Whale Watching

Kayak/Snorkel

Reviewed by: AmyCat

This excursion was worth the money spent. My new husband had never snorkeled before so it was nice to have an experienced guide teach us how to do it. The Kayaking portion was nice and good exercise while we got to go out further than we would have without the kayaks. The guide, Steve, knew tremendous amounts about the area, ocean, animal life and more. He was helpful and funny throughout the entire experience. It was great to see turtles in and out of the water, an octopus, urchins, as well as schools of fish. Small group, us and a family, which the made the experience that much more intimate and special.

South Maui Kayaking & Turtle Snorkeling Tour with Seasonal Whale Watching

Snorkel & Kayak: A Good Combination

Reviewed by: AKVisitor

Kayaking is a great way to observe different snorkeling sites. Lots of friendly sea turtles and was able to hear the songs of the humpback whales. Would have liked to see more varieties of fish. For a kayaker used to a 1-person boat, the 2-person kayak was more limiting. Our guide provided a lot of information about the sea life in the area. It was very informational. Overall a good day.

Do not miss out on this experience!

Reviewed by: Jess

We had the time of our lives! We were on our honeymoon and I had no experience, my husband had very little. The crew members made this so enjoyable. They called all of us by our names, they made sure we were having fun and comfortable. They took the time to explain everything to us and answer any questions. The experience was amazing, the fish and coral were spectacualar. We even saw a reef shark! Exciting! We always felt safe and had a blast. Anne didn't give up on me when I had a hard time getting used to snuba diving, quickly she had me down enjoying the adventure. They were so funny and everyone had a great time. The captain was so funny and helpful. Do yourself a favor, enjoy this adventure and use this crew...they were amazing!

What an incredible experience diving with all of you!!! I've never learned so much about a dive site in so little time with so much pleasure as I have with Vici, Jennifer, Andy and Pauline.

Mike Severns Maui Certified Scuba Diving Boat Tour (Kihei Harbor)

Wonderful Time

Reviewed by: Michael and Karen McGeoug

Our dive with you was the best we've ever experienced. Your dive master did an excellent job. Before each dive he reviewed all of the minute details that he expected us to see. Then we saw them in the order that was described. I especially like the speed of the dive; 2 speeds: slow and stop. The field of eels at Molokini and the Devil Scorpionfish were the highlights of our dives in Hawaii. We have been all over, from Tahiti to Cozumel and the Caribbean. Each area has it's pluses and minuses, but we have never had the insight into the dive that you and Dave brought to us from the naturalist/biologist point of view. We don't dive for the parties afterward, we are there for the wildlife. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Fun and Unique

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Stand up paddling was a very unique experience. The instructors were great and really made it easy to learn how to stand up paddle. We are from the midwest, so we wanted to try a unique ocean activity, since it would be something that we would not be able to try back home. I wish we had easier access to the ocean, so we could use our newly acquired paddling skills.

Great Diving Experience

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I went on the two-tank dive with gear. This was a really convenient way for me to dive while visiting Hawaii. Maui has some spectacular dive sites, and Mike Severns Diving takes you to some really great spots. I'm really glad that we dove into Molokini Crater. The crater has such an incredible amount of marine life. While diving I saw many different beautiful tropical fish, an octopus, an eel, a Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle, and stunningly beautiful coral reef.

What An Experience!

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

I've never surfed, but the instructors at Action Sports Maui really take the time to teach you the basics. They know how important it is for you to feel safe before trying to windsurf out on the ocean. I never felt like I was going to blow away into the blue abyss. I've been sailing a few times, and windsurfing is a similar feeling, but with more of an adrenaline rush.

Maui Kayak Tour - Makena Wailea Explorer Paddle & Snorkel Adventure from Kihei

Ok but not worth the cost

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

Overall this could have been a much better experience if the activity was either longer or less expensive. Bascially we were out for under 2 hours. I did not feel that I got my money's worth. We paddled out to the channel then back in to snorkle and then came in. Sure the sights were great and our guide was wonderful, but for the price, this should have been 4 hour excursion. The location was really out of the way, but the area was excellant. We saw whales, turtles and lots of fish.

Maui Surf Lessons for Beginners at Kalama Beach Park (Kihei)

Fun but a little too basic...

Reviewed by: Mr. Anonymous

We had fun and enjoyed learning to surf, however we were taken to a very shallow part of the ocean where the floor was covered with sharp rocks. My husband and I were both injured and ended up leaving 50 minutes early from our lesson. The wind was pretty bad that day which obviously is uncontrollable, but there very few waves and lots of other surf lesson students so there was very little opportunity to attempt what we had learned. I do not feel the value of the lesson was enough to warrant how much we paid. But, again, we did have a good time and perhaps on a less windy and cold day it wouldn't have been so bad.
