Worth the money! Super easy for newbies😊 - Still celebrating my 60th BD all year🥳. Paul was very cool! Easy to find meeting spot, responsive to pre-experience questions and very helpful all around. He was very patient and flexible. We are newbies. He took good care of us, especially my daughter until she got extra comfy. He gave us so much info about the fish, reef, everything. Every time I popped my head above water I learned something new. I highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

Best Maui Snorkel EVER - Just WOW! The absolute best snorkel
Experience EVER! I highly suggest you book now. Our Marine Biologist thought of everything including a fresh water wash station afterwards. Not only did see the amazing Reef but also learned about the coral, fish and turtles. It was a magical experience we will remember forever. Thank you 😊

Spectacular Snorkeling!! - My daughter and I booked our 2 hour snorkeling adventure with Paul through the aquarium in Maui. It was much more than what we expected. Paul being a Marine Biologist has so much knowledge about the Mother Reef, where he took us. He took us much farther out than we expected and it was truly spectacular. He took us to where the turtles gather to be cleaned of algae by fish and told us about the different types of coral and fish we saw along the way. Don’t hesitate to book this once in a lifetime experience.

Fantastic! - Paul was a fantastic host, he was super informative and helpful as we navigated through the tour. It was my mom’s first time snorkeling and he was patient with her and kept an eye on her as we went. We got to see beautiful fish, coral and so many turtles! We loved that the tour included the pictures that Paul took throughout the tour so we’ll get to look back at them. It was a great time overall and I would recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy the beautiful ocean views. Thanks Paul!

Great couples experience - An excellent guide. Paul helped navigate us towards schools of fish, awesome corals, and a group of turtles. He had all of the supplies and expertise we needed for an enjoyable trip. The pictures he took with the GoPro (and sent the same day) were fantastic!

A Must Do! - Paul is amazing. He knows all the secret spots to find turtles and colorful coral and fishes. I'm not a confident swimmer and he had 2 floatation devices for me, plus stopped several times to make sure I was feeling comfortable. I trusted him 100% and it paid off! We saw 8 turtles and countless fishes. Amazing adventure and the highlight of our trip! Bonus - pictures are included.
