Great company and Great dive instructor.
Chris was a excellent trainer. He was very patient and lots of fun. Unfortunately no doing of his I had a panic attack and couldn't go through with the dive. He was very thorough and very understanding. Great guy I just couldn't do it.
Operator response
Mahalo for your kind words Gloria! It's so great to hear that even though scuba wasn't for you that day, you still enjoyed your experience with Chris and Aloha Maui Diving. These classes are designed to try something new and that can certainly be overwhelming sometimes. Hopefully you will still have fond memories and maybe come back and try another time.

Our dive instructor Chris...
Our dive instructor Chris was fantastic. He spent enough time with us going over the instructions and hand signals to make us comfortable. In the water, he walked us through all the required skills and then we were off. We were swimming with turtles and schools of fish. Chris boosted my son’s confidence in the water that by the end of our dive, he said he wanted to get his open water certification. This was the capstone of our vacay! Thank you Chris!!
Operator response
Aloha Michael, we're honored to have introduced your son to the wonders of Maui scuba diving!!
Mahalo for your wonderful review and trusting us with your scuba experience.
Chris is awesome and we're lucky to have him in our dive 'ohana! Come back and see us soon, the honu (green turtles) will be waiting!

If you’re nervous, this trip is the way to go.
Chris was laid back, extremely knowledgeable, and just put everyone at ease. It was my kids first time and they were nervous enough to back out, but Chris was fun and just had a way of easing the tension. We ended up having a great time and made memories we’ll never forget.
Operator response
Aloha! So glad we got to ease you and your keiki (kids) into the water!! Happy to hear we helped you make awesome scuba memories and hope to see you all back soon.

Amazing experience.
10/10 experience! I had an amazing time and Chris was a great instructor. He was very patient, funny, and overall a great person. Chris walked us through every step and made sure everyone was confident. The gear provided was also great, it all looked and felt brand new. I think this is a cheap price for the experience. I loved the experience so much I even went for a second dive. My only regret was not starting my PADI cert sooner so I could’ve done my dives with Chris.
Operator response
This sounds like it was an epic bucket list experience for you Joey and we are so excited that Chris and Aloha Maui Diving could be a part of it. Hopefully next time you come out we will be diving together as certified divers :)

Great experience for a beginner
Sarah was a great instructor. I'm an average swimmer and I had never tried scuba diving before this. Sarah spent a good hour going through the basics and teaching us how to use the equipment. We then did a shore dive and saw some amazing corals and fish right off the shore. Would highly recommend for any beginner who is curious about diving.
Operator response
Mahalo Chandrasekar! Great job diving for the first time!!
Sarah is awesome and we're glad you had an amazing time on your beginner dive!

Super fun experience!
We had Chris as our instructor and Brian for photography, we had a blast with them both! Chris was extremely clear with instructions and safety before getting into the water. My partner has no previous diving experience and Chris was extra attentive with him to make sure everything went smoothly and we were lucky enough to see a turtle up close! There was also tons of beautiful fish and coral life to view. So a fun experience! Highly recommend diving with Chris and hopefully we can come back and dive with him again.

Aloha Jess! We had an awesome time diving with you and Ethan as well and hope to see you again soon. You both did an amazing job diving. The honu (green turtles) will be waiting!

Experience of a lifetime!
Thai experience is a MUST if you are a confident swimmer and not scared of the ocean!
Chris, Sarah, and Deborah were all so amazing we actually ended up booking a second private dive to experience it again!
Both Chris and Sarah were amazing to be in the water with and pointed out/showed us rays, octopus, eels, and green turtles. Just existing under water with all the creatures was top tier.
Operator response
Mahalo Katelyn and Kalyn! You guys were so fun to be around and we are excited to hear the underwater world has captivated you too. We are lucky to be able to experience this magical place with people like you who bring the stoke and entertainment ;)
