From the moment we stepped on the raft, the crew made safety and comfort a top priority--clear instructions, secure seating, and constant check-ins that made everyone feel confident and cared for. The early morning conditions were perfect we watched the full moon set and saw an amazing sunrise. There was calm water, cool air, fewer boats, and incredible whale activity. We saw multiple whales breaching,tail slapping and pectoral fin slapping all while feeling completely safe and well supported. The captain expertly adjusted speed and positioning to match the ocean conditions, which made a huge difference. This tour strikes the perfect balance between excitement and comfort. If you're in your wondering if a raft tour is too intense--don't hesitate. Redline Rafting delivers a thrilling experience without ever feeling rough or unsafe. Truly unforgettable and highly, highly recommend! Date of experience: February 2026

As promised, he found an octopus and put on a show with it (humanely, of course). We saw tons of tropical fish too. The scooters themselves are an absolute blast.

We had plenty of time to scoot around on our own in pairs, too.

If you only do one thing on the ocean in Maui, do the Zephyr kayak + snorkeling "whale watch"…read moretour!! We've been to other snorkeling in Maui, and this was the BEST experience ever. We were swimming with SO. MANY. TURTLES. (Apparently if you go in the winter season, you'd see a lot of whales!)! I know there are other "turtle town spots around the island, and we've been to a "turtle town". But the sheer amount of turtles you will see here is unparalleled. Our guides Derek and Robbie were awesome: 1. They took so many photos of us - diving under waters to capture the turtles and us, took 200+ photos and 40 videos and was constantly in the water looking out for turtles. 2. They are also such great swimmers and made me feel at ease given that I'm fairly new to snorkeling. At some point I lost one of my fins and started panicking, but Derek swiftly recovered the lost fin! We also capsized at some point, but with Robbie's calm instructions, we quickly made it back to the kayak. Whew! 3. We also heard several interesting stories and facts about the history of the islands around. Overall, this is absolutely a can-not-miss tour in Maui and we can't wait to be back for the whale season!

We selected this company due to their excellent reviews, and we're sure glad we did! Captain Ryan and deckhands Jade and Chloe were friendly, funny, knowledgeable and accommodating. And even though the tour was for snorkeling only, Ryan decided to throw in some dolphins and whale watching we hadn't expected! Lunch and snacks were very good, too. The 60' Rigid Hull Inflatable Boat (RHIB) was maneuverable, comfortable, and with FOUR 350 HP Yamaha outboards (that's 1,400 HP), VERY fast! Just an outstanding day for the whole family. First rate all the way!

It was a really cool and memorable experience. I highly recommend Maui Reef Adventure.

This experience with Griff, our guide, was by far, the very best we have ever experienced. Not just because we saw 4/5 whales, or that the weather was perfect, or that during our snorkel, we saw two turtles, countless fish (including a mahi mahi chasing flying fish) and a beautiful reef. All those are incredibly awesome! But I must admit, having Griff as our tour guide was really what put this trip over the top! He was outstanding in every way. He kept us engaged and provided his knowledge on whales, turtles, fish, all the islands, and the importance of being respectful to the Hawaiian land and culture. He was so genuine!

The company sends a text message with information the night prior to the tour with information on where to meet (Makena Landing Beach Tour). The check-in time for us was at 7:00 AM and the tour starts around 7:30 AM. All equipment needed was provided (snorkeling set, wet bag, kayak, and life jackets). There were five other people on our tour, which made the tour even more fun :) Tyler gave us all of the proper instructions and tips for kayaking and snorkeling. We've kayaked before but it was both my boyfriend and my first time snorkeling and he made us feel really comfortable and confident in trying something new. The snorkeling experience was amazing and we had the chance of appreciate the beautiful coral reefs, aquatic life (including tunas jumping out of the water), green sea turtles, and surrounding mountains. Tyler was also really knowledgeable about things to see on the island and had a lot of interesting fun facts. Our friends also agreed that the tour was worth it and overall had a really great time. I'd highly recommend booking a tour during a Maui trip!
