One With Nature! - What an amazing experience this was, up close and personal with turtles, a seal and dolphins! The guide was extremely knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife we were encountering. So nice to be away from the crowds and be one with nature. Very humbling time on the water, perfect solitude. Loved the tour and can't wait to come back to Maui to do it again!
