South Shore Turtle Kayak en snorkel ervaring

This is a great trip! Tyler was the best guide. Park in the Makena parking lot and then walk up the road and you’ll see all the tour guides there. There are a few different tours going on in the same area, all small groups of 10 or less. This is way better than the big boat tour. Our guide,Tyler, told us all sorts of stuff about the island and he checked on each of the 9 of us. We stopped in two spots and saw so many turtles! They are everywhere! We had to paddle backward so we wouldn’t bump into o them.

We had a perfect morning on the water! It was a beautiful day, pretty calm water, and we saw so many turtles!!!! So many in fact that we often had to back up to not get too close to them. Jeremiah made it both extremely informative and fun. He helped calm me down when I was not trusting my breathing with the snorkel and before long, I was seeing all the underwater activity!!

I was advised not to write in all caps, but l don’t care because RABBIT WAS INCREDIBLE. We had fun, we felt really safe, and we saw WHALES! It was such a pleasant experience. We enjoyed hearing his vast knowledge of whales, the history of the area, and recommendations for the remainder of our vacation. He had drinks (non-alcoholic) and snacks to keep us fueled and hydrated. Would book with him again, and would absolutely recommend! The pics he took of us were such a bonus!

This was a magical trip. Guides are so knowledgeable about Maui and the ocean. The whale watching experience was a bonus to an already great experience. Highly recommend this tour! Tyler was the best.

Excellent experience. We saw numerous sea turtles as well as other sea life. Our guide Miah (Jeremiah) was very informative and entertaining. Highly recommend.

Rabbit was great! Very knowledgeable about the surrounding islands and made sure that we had a safe experience coming back in on some rough waters. Booked the 10:30AM tour and saw about 6 turtles. Amazing!

Our family of five had an unforgettable 2.5-hour private kayaking and snorkeling adventure. Roger, the owner, recommended switching to the 7 AM tour for better weather and marine life visibility—excellent advice! Our guide, Tyler, was outstanding. He provided clear, encouraging instructions and tailored the experience to fit our interests. We opted to focus on snorkeling and couldn’t be happier. Tyler took us to a spot filled with sea turtles—it felt like swimming in a dream. He also shared fascinating insights about Maui’s marine life and history, which added so much depth to the experience. We explored a vibrant coral reef full of colorful fish and sea creatures. The entire tour felt safe, personal, and truly special. This was, hands down, the highlight of our trip. Highly recommend!

Had an amazing kayaking/snorkeling trip with our guide, Rabbit! He mentioned there were still whale sightings in late April, so we paddled 1.5 miles straight out in the ocean. It paid off! We could hear a baby whale calling to its mom and it jumped 30ft away from me before swimming to her. We then paddled to Turtle Bay to snorkel. There were 10+ turtles and tons of different fish. It was awesome! Rabbit shared a lot of facts and stories with us throughout the trip and answered any questions we had. By far, the best excursion I’ve ever had!

Highly recommend!! We had an amazing morning kayaking amongst the whales. Our guide Maddie was knowledgeable and awesome.

Jake was a great guide. He has extensive knowledge about marine life and could point out many things to us. It was a fun paddle and not too rigorous.
