Awesome Excursion - The crew was great, the views were great, the snorkeling was superb. So glad that we were able to add this to our itinerary last minute (rare to be able to do I hear-but we went on Easter Sunday, so I think that was a major factor). Make sure to bring PLENTY reef safe NON-SPRAY sunscreen, because you’ll get a lot of sun.

A very enjoyable day on the water! - We had an amazing day on the water. The crew was friendly, helpful and well prepared. A repeat adventure for sure! The captain was knowledgeable and share many fun facts with us about the wales and their activity. They had wetsuits that you could rent on board, which really helped increase our time in the water as we snorkeled. The food and beverages were excellent!

Amazing snorkel trip, will do again - This snorkel trip was amazing. Captain Jason and crew were professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. I particularly like that the captain let us know what we were seeing told us some history. He stopped the boat when he saw whales. The food was great the hot lunch was very appreciated after a morning snorkel at the crater. Thank you captain and crew of the Pride of Maui for a great day.

Fantastic crew! - Alright folks, I was torn between a "very good" and an "excellent" but I went with "excellent". The crew is absolutely perfect in terms of being kind, approachable, knowing your size for equipment, supporting your comfort or discomfort with the activities, and being a great balance of chilled out (relax, no problem!) and competently on top of things (everything worked like clockwork and if you even started to ask a question or need something, staff had already started answering you or handing you the solution you were looking for). They were especially awesome with kids and with striking the right balance of encouraging guests to lean into all the activities and being gracious and supportive with the less adventurous. Beyond the control of the crew- we were not able to go out to the crater to snorkel, due to weather. I think this would be great to communicate out ahead of time, but maybe it would just invite tons of communication from booked guests. Finding out at the dock was a bummer. Also beyond the control of the crew was the impossible behavior of some guests. Large parties who had read none of the texts/emails about signing their waivers for every single person before arriving. Individuals who literally stood up the moment the captain said everyone stay seated, or individuals who would not sit down even after being asked a dozen times. People who weren't willing to use mineral based sunscreen. This crew is amazingly kind and helpful given how many of these issues they must encounter everyday from difficult guests.
