Our kayaks were recently manufactured. Life vests are sized to the guest. Rash guards, sunscreen and dry bags are provided at no extra cost. Our guides are CPR trained, passionate about conservation and have a deep understanding of the flora and fauna you will encounter while on your tour. We are the only kayaking for charity company on Maui. Every seat booked helps support UHMC!

Cancelled due to weather, great communication from company!

Unfortunately our excursion was cancelled due to weather, but the company kept us informed about rescheduling and the reason for the cancellation! If we get out here again, we plan to sign up again.

Kayaking the reef

What a fun time for our girls trip! Crystal blue water along the most beautiful reef! These kayaks are for everyone, experienced or not very easy to navigate. Not only do you see the beauty of Hawaii waters the view of the mountains is breathtaking. Also the best guide you could ever ask for is very knowledgeable of the reef and area.

Incredible Views All Around

We had a wonderful experience. We never kayaked before but felt completely safe and ready for the experience. The family that operates this business is very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a great time viewing undersea and coastline. We saw plenty of turtles and fish. Our guide (one of the sons) also shared lots of island and wildlife information. Came away from the morning of kayaking feeling so relaxed but exhilarated from the experience. It's a 100% a must do!

Fantastic Day!

Jason was awesome. He explained everything we needed to know about kayaking and told us about the seals and turtles and whales and the reef. We truly had a wonderful time. Jason and Nicholas were accommodating and helpful throughout our experience. I highly recommend this adventure.

Highlight of our trip to Maui!

My husband and I had an amazing time snorkeling and were awestruck by the amazing reefs, sea urchin, fish and sea turtles we saw! We each only had 1 or 2 experiences with snorkeling prior to this, and we appreciated how patient and understanding our instructor was. We were pretty tired about 1.5 hours in, but our instructor was ready to go for another 3 hours if we were - truly unlimited it seems! The only slight confusion was that the Google pin address in their email didn’t work until I reached out to ask for it once I noticed it the night before. Also, the email mentioned we would be going in a clear kayak and receive some snacks as well as a clear water proof pouch for our phones, but it seems that wasn’t meant for our snorkeling experience. Not a big issue but did cause a little bit of confusion. Overall I would highly recommend this experience!
