Thoughtful service, fewer crowds

Great experience with amazing staff. We even saw turtles. Loved the ginger drink handed out when the seas got choppy. Fewer passengers and excellent snorkeling made it worth it.

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.

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.

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.

Organized, safety-first crew

Did the Molokini snorkel and whale watch. By far the most organized, friendly tour we’ve taken. Safety was top priority, drinks were great, meals delicious, and crater snorkeling was incredible.

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.

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!
