Fantastic, unforgettable, amazing
This tour is 1000% worth it! The destinations, the snorkel, the food/drinks, THE crew; wow top of the line! The whole crew was AMAZING! The captain Justin, and his crew, Natalia, Sienna, Chris, and Kadyn were OUTSTANDING! I wouldn’t think twice to take the Pride of Maui tour again when we revisit Maui! We researched many companies, I can’t see how anything else can top this experience.
P.S. Extremely clean bathrooms!!
Best excursion in Hawaii!
Kadyn, Sienna, Justin, Chris and Natalia went above and beyond for this snorkel tour. We were not even expecting to see whales and we came across so many pods! From the best snorkeling spots to the food – it was so worth it. Having wetsuits on board made it even better. When we visit again we will be booking the same boat.
Best snorkeling tour
We took off on an adventure during a rain storm. The captain told us we would be safe and he would show us a good time and despite Mother Nature’s interference we had a great time. We were the first boat to Molokini and saw some amazing sights. The waves got a little choppy so we pivoted and went to Turtle Town early and swam with turtles. Then while we had some great food we got to watch a young Humpback breach multiple times. We got great pics of Gia, turtles and whales. Amazing trip! Great crew, they took care of us and made sure we were well taken care of. Oh, did I forget to mention the open bar??? Great drinks!
I Loved it!
Crew went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time
Best excursion ever
We booked snorkeling and got it all. Whale watching, sea turtles, best snorkeling, open bar, and amazing crew. The crew (Justin, sienna, Kadyn, Chris, Natalia) was phenomenal. 100% recommend
Great boat experience
Lovely experience. Boat is beautiful and comfortable. Crew goes beyond to make it a nice day. Snorkeling great. Saw tons of whales in March.
Absolutely amazing trip!
Crew, food, atmosphere was incredible day!
Excellent service & amenities!
Brand new boat is super clean, clean bathrooms!!! 2 snorkel spots, 2 meals, drinks, unofficial whale watch too 🙂
So much fun!
The crew was amazing and the snorkeling was great! The boat is beautiful and so clean! The staff was amazing and made it so much fun! Totally worth the money and will go again when we come back!
Amazing!!!!! Wonderful!! Groovy
The yacht is beautiful, clean, and the perfect size for a group of 40. Captain Justin did a fabulous job of getting us to our snorkel sites, and made sure we saw all the whale action on the way. Skipper Tiffany, Gnarly Carly and Chris made sure everyone was taken care of and went out of their way to make sure all guests needs were taken care of, lickety split. Would give them all 6/5 stars if I could! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome snorkel day
This was a very nice combo tour. Low key snorkeling and some whale watching on a spacious boat with hot showers, food, cocktails, and a great crew.
Best excursion EVER!
From the morning greeting, to the cruise to the crater, the snorkeling, the wildlife, the crew, and the boat! This was the best excursion I have ever been on in all of Hawaii! So many fun moments seeing turtles and whales. Thank you for making my birthday trip extra special. Definitely doing this again! World class!
Amazing crew and incredible hospitality
We had an epic time on our snorkel tour. Fantastic, 5-star crew who were incredibly professional and thought of everything. The gear was awesome (esp from someone who had issues with my snorkel before). Clean, luxurious, first rate boat. Worth the money. So glad we did it!!
Absolutely worth it
Crew was fantastic, friendly, helpful, and made sure everyone was always comfortable, enjoying themselves, and had what they needed, including a drink in hand once snorkeling was done. A fuller trip than other tours, with both breakfast and lunch, and then open bar. Glad I paid more for a nice half day hangout, vs other tours that push you along in a crowd. More personable, and informative as well. Top to bottom a nice day, enjoying paradise.
The Avenger team
Made everyone comfortable most importantly, my sister lost an expensive Ring when she jump in and it went to the bottom of the coral , they spent 15 to 20 minutes on looking for it and they end of finding it , unbelievable team the crew is
Amazing snorkel trip
This trip absolutely delivered! Captain Justin and his crew were fantastic! We saw awesome fish and swam with sea turtles. Lunch was perfect and some cocktails and whale watching to end the morning was perfect. Highly recommend!
What a day
Crew was fantastic. Food was good. Gear was great. Drinks were great. Saw a ton of whales. Couldn’t have asked for more
Was absolutely amazing!
The staff was great, the boat is absolutely beautiful and the whales take your breath away. Highly recommend this trip!
Bomb ass trip
Good food, great crew! Lots of whales!!!
Unforgettable Ocean Adventure
We did the snorkel + whale watching trip in Maui and it was truly fantastic from start to finish. The crew was friendly, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel comfortable and safe the whole time. The boat was great—clean, spacious, and a really smooth ride. Seeing whales out on the water was unforgettable, and the snorkeling was an excellent bonus. Everything was well organized, relaxed, and fun. Highly recommend this experience if you’re in Maui!
Great trip and crew
Everything was great food and crew boat and weather
Trip of a life time
The crew was absolutely awesome from start to finish! This was my first time snorkeling in Maui, and it completely exceeded my expectations. The experience was unforgettable — the water, the marine life, everything was just incredible. On top of that, the food was amazing with so many delicious options to choose from. Such a perfect day. Highly recommend!
Book This Adventure!
This excursion was unforgettable. The crew was incredible and the water near the crater was unbelievably clear. We saw whales everywhere and even a shark, and somehow I still felt completely safe. Truly one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had.
Unforgettable Dream Wedding
The boat was the perfect size for my 50 person wedding!!! Phillip and Rachelle blew me out of the water with my florals and decorations which was a girls dream. The crew/staff embodied Hawaiian hospitality at every turn from interacting with the bride/groom and even our guests. They were ranting and raving about how nice the crew was. The captain was so accommodating ensuring we were safe and comfortable checking in to make our day unforgettable. We even were able to capture the beautiful whales celebrating our nuptials with us; breathtaking. It truly was the perfect wedding. The guests loved the food and the portions were large! It was the wedding of a lifetime that we or our guests will never forget! And a very affordable choice!
Amazing experience and people
Honestly unbelievable. Crazy good hospitality, we saw everything as expected. Couldn’t have had a better boat and crew… not to mention this boat is nice as …
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!
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.

Excellent sunset cruise
10 out of 10! Absolutely loved and appreciated the sunset cruise, the food, entertainment, and the attentive crew!! Recommend it and would go again!
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!

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.
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.

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.
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.

Friendly crew, great night
Our family loved the sunset dinner cruise. Super friendly and accommodating staff, great food and live entertainment, and beautiful views.
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.
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.

Beautiful views with a little history along the way. Tasty BBQ options and a crew that stayed helpful throughout the excursion. We’d definitely do it again.
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.
