Way beyond expectations
Way cooler than we imagined. All snorkel gear provided with an optional SNUBA upgrade, lots of flotation, and wetsuits to rent. We visited Molokini Crater and Turtle Town and made memories that will last a lifetime.
Spotless boat, tasty food
Wonderful experience for our family. The boat was spotless, breakfast and a delicious lunch were included, and an open bar after snorkeling was a great touch.
Guided snorkel, turtles close
Above expectations. Exceptional staff, including an in-water guide pointing out fish, especially species unique to Hawaiʻi. Turtles swam right by us. Loved having a wetsuit jacket for the chilly water. Highly recommend.
GF-friendly, easy fun
Lots of flotation devices, delicious food, and they kindly accommodated my gluten-free diet. Relaxed vibe onboard and nice snorkeling.
Top notch snorkeling tour
Our family of 12 had a fantastic time on the ELUA tour. The higher price was well worth it. The new, well maintained boat was a pleasure with fantastic facilities including “real” (clean) bathrooms, easy water access, great interior with seating and a bar, warm showers on the rear deck when you come in from snorkeling. Complimenting the boat was an awesome crew. Crew was friendly and attentive to our needs. Lunch included freshly grilled onboard burgers, chicken and fish. This tour limits the number of guests which makes it feel like a small private tour. I highly recommend the ELUA tour.
Best day of our honeymoon
We had a wonderful time with the Pride of Maui crew on the ‘Elua luxury boat tour. It was my first time snorkeling and my husband’s first time in Maui. We absolutely loved the experience – the boat is gorgeous, super clean and comfortable, and the snorkeling locations are unbeatable. We saw countless species of fish and swam with three sea turtles at Turtle Town. By the time we got out of the water, we had both worked up an appetite, and the lunch off the grill on the boat was delicious! We both since haven’t had a mai tai or a lilikoi mojito that topped the ones we had on the ‘Elua either. Everything about the day was enjoyable, from the boat itself to the snorkeling to the hospitality. Thank you to Captain Justin and his crew for a wonderful time – we would highly recommend.

Tons of marine life and even whales in the distance. Impressive organization and attention to detail from this family-owned team. Special shout-out to the crew. Highly recommended.

Amazing night and a highlight of our trip. Comfortable boat filled to about half capacity, fantastic entertainment and food, and incredible views. The captain and crew made us feel like family.
Must-do sunset cruise
A must-do. Tasteful food, well-made drinks, and absolutely stunning views. A perfect way to end our trip to Maui.
Sunset, hula, open bar
Beautiful sunset views while enjoying delicious food and the hula show. Friendly, organized staff and an all-you-can-drink bar.
Relaxing, friendly evening
Such a great time. Nice staff, good food, and a very relaxing evening. Would definitely do it again and recommend it to friends and family.
Customers for Life
Our most recent trip was a private charter to spread our fathers’ ashes. The captain and crew were amazing, they were all so attentive and compassionate. The front office staff (Rochelle) was equally pleasant and helpful!
Team outing delight
Company outing I absolutely loved. We spotted lots of coral and parrotfish, and some of us even saw a sea turtle. Big thanks to the team for the great energy and local tips. Such a joyful, uplifting experience.
Snorkel + whales wow
Exceptional service. We saw plenty of fish while snorkeling and later watched whales breach and show their flukes. Breathtaking.
Snorkels, whales, dolphins
The entire day was perfect. Our crew made sure we had the best time. From snorkeling to whale and dolphin watching, while keeping everyone comfortable. Top notch.
Captain-led whale views
Fantastic crew. Serving, helping, and engaging. Captain Justin found great whale views and added interesting commentary. Good snacks and drinks, too. They won’t disappoint.
Best day on water
Amazing experience from crew to food to snorkeling and whale sightings. One of the best boat tours we’ve ever done. Couldn’t have been a better day.
