Luxurious cruise and crew
Pride of Maui Elua featured exploration of Molokini, snorkeling, whale watching in style. Not crowded. Open bar. Clean. Good food. Exceptional crew and Captain Justin has a great playlist and sense of humor. Be good to yourself and book Elua.
Really great experience
Crew was awesome. Good food. Fun snorkeling experience.
Amazingly nice service
The crew is very helpful and friendly. The food is good for vegetarians as well. Great hospitality.
Best tour ever!
The boat, the crew and the experience was incredible. We’ve done several of these excursions in the past and these guys have been the best we have experienced. Hats off to Captain Kayden and the rest of the team. Great sense of humor and education at the same time. Awesome day!
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.
Safe, seamless, awesome
A fantastic excursion with everything you need for a great time. The crew kept everyone safe in the water and comfortable all day. Highly recommend this snorkeling company when you’re in Maui.
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.
Caring crew, amazing snorkel
Trip favorite. After my daughter bumped her head (on our rental van), the crew, J., Patrick, and team, were incredibly kind and kept checking on her. Snorkeling was excellent (needlefish, eel, more) with a paddleboard guard watching over swimmers. And the cookies at the end were so good. Highly recommend.
Organized, tasty, two stops
From boarding to return, everything was well handled. Freshly grilled burgers and hot dogs, fab drinks, snorkeling at Molokini plus a turtle stop, and tons of gear. SNUBA available, too. Highly recommend.
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.
Captain Kadyn & crew deliver a perfect morning!
This crew went above and beyond to provide a good time for all. This boat is one of the nicest I have been on and the crew does a fabulous job. Well worth the spend
Classy Comfortable Fun!
This was worth every penny! Crew was so friendly, boat was beautiful, food & drinks excellent!!
Awesome Crew and Experience
Crew were friendly and helpful and took care of all their guests. Justin was a great captain and the rest of the crew was great as well. Food was really good and so were the snacks. I highly recommend.
The best time!!
This is our second time with Pride of Maui. Justin, the Captain, and the entire crew were amazing and truly thought of every detail from the moment you step on board. Their professionalism paired with great humour made the experience even better. We saw it all—turtles, whales, you name it. Special shout-out to Kadyn for calming my nerves and making me feel completely at ease getting into the water. Thank you to the whole crew for an unforgettable morning on the water!
Beautiful boat and crew
We had a great tour. Snorkeling, turtles, whales with good food and drinks!! A wonderful crew made it unforgettable!
Amazing day!!! Amazing crew and boat!
Look no further than Pride of Maui … I chose this tour because it’s early morning and did not disappoint. NO crowds at Molokini or Tuttle town and so many whales which our fantastic Captain took the time to position the boat beautifully so we could observe and enjoy them. The boat is new, comfortable and CLEAN!!! We don’t usually book on open bar events since we don’t drink and don’t want to pay for it or worry about drunk vibe on ship but no worries at all … such a friendly welcoming atmosphere, relaxed vibe, totally comfortable. Crew and captain amazing. Thanks Pride of Maui!
VIP help for families
Chill, first-class vibe with perks like parking by the slip. The crew gave our 5-year-old the confidence and coaching to snorkel for the first time. Hardest part was going home.
Upscale vibe, epic crew
Gorgeous, comfortable yacht with an upscale-but-chill feel. Shockingly good hamburgers and standout service. Special shout-out to Justin and Kadyn. Between views, crew, and food, it’s a must.
Small-group luxury win
Awesome captain and crew. Breakfast, great snorkeling with fish and turtles, then a quality lunch and open bar. We loved the small-group model, capped at around 40, so it never felt crowded. Highly recommend.
Wouldn’t do it differently
The ‘Elua luxury boat was fantastic. Friendly, knowledgeable crew and incredible snorkeling. We wouldn’t do it any other way.
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.
Whales even in March
Amazing experience. Multiple whales, including a breach, even on the last day of March. Air-conditioned, comfortable boat and super-friendly staff.
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.
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.
