    What a perfect day!
    Danny M.

    Met up with Jesse and Joe on a Sunday morning for the absolute most perfect day on the water. My girlfriend, my Dog and two of our friends got to enjoy snorkeling at Molokini crater, attempted some fishing as we went ti different locations. We were able to see turtles and plenty of fish. They guys even provided water, soda, juice, beer and spiked seltzers. They were extremely knowledgeable about their trade and navigated the water with ease. If you want to go out on the water with professionals, look no further then Green island charters! 100% will use them Again when I come visit Maui again! Aloha!

    What an awesome experience! The way a private charter should be enjoyed! We had a morning private charter for 4 people and my service dog, Stella. They accommodated all of us and we had a delicious light lunch and beverages on the boat. I was able to play my own music which is a big plus for me! Jesse was our captain and Joe was helping him out and they were both super friendly and knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. They really made the experience that much better. I usually get sea sickness and I was able to sit next to captain Jesse going to Molokini crater. Peace of mind pays no price. The boat is new, in great condition, and makes you feel so much safer being with a crew that fishes often and knows the sea. The location is perfect for people staying in Kihei. So much easier than going to maalea harbor which is 13 miles off the shore. The afternoons in Maui have major trade winds so ideally this harbor is better just because it's closer. Lol. Not to brag; but we truly had the best weather conditions today -- Glassy water, no afternoon wind, and sunny skies all throughout. We wish we had more time in Maui, but since we live on Oahu we'll definitely be back with more friends and family. 10/10 recommend over any other charter. Worth every penny. Thank you guys again! See you all soon -- mahalo

    We recently booked a private fishing trip with Green Island Charters. We had a fantastic time fishing with Jesse and the crew. They were fun, friendly and very knowledgeable. We caught multiple different types of fish but the best part was my 3 year old son catching and reeling in his first fish! Seeing Maui from the water is a must! The views are beautiful, the boat was spacious and super clean. I would highly recommend booking private with Green Island Charters it's such a different experience then booking with the larger boats. We will be be using them again for sure.

    Having a great time on the water!

    I love this company so much! Jesse, the Capitan, is so knowledgeable and attentive. He even taught me how to catch a fish! We were one of the few boats that could go to Molokini and we saw an octopus out there! To be able to fish and go snorkeling in one trip was so awesome. Thank you Jesse and team! Your customer service was incredible. We couldn't have been happier with our trip!

    What an amazing day! Went out with just me and my boyfriend. We did some fishing and whale watching, and got to swim at molokini with just us! We ended our trip on the back side of molokini and caught a huge uku well half of one, a shark got the other half!! It was sucha great experience to be on a smaller boat and really get one on one time fishing. Would love to go out with a fun small group of friends. Highly recommend if your looking for a special unforgettable maui experience.

    Jesse & Matt had great gear - excellent lures, great live bait, and a nice setup for trawling or bottom fishing.

We even called last night and were assured the captain wouldn't take us out IF the seas were too rough. Guess what. July 28th, 2026 the seas were too rough for this to be enjoyable!!! Multiple people puked. We wanted to switch days to Saturday, but were told we couldn't because it was within the 24 hour cancelation window, but we were given the assurance the captain wouldn't take us out if it was poor conditions. He did. He did!! We all knew it was too rough. We have eyes and read the report. We sailed to Molikini and we could not go in. As we knew!! Then he took us to turtle town. I feel like it was a money grab when the seas are rough and there are hurricane warnings...it should be an allowable reason to postpone to an alternate date. You could keep our money and let us go Saturday. Geez..What an utter shame. Murkey waters. No visibility. I'll book with another boat if we ever do it again. One that values the experience and safety. Pray my husband's sea sickness goes away soon. EDIT: Here's something important to note. If the water conditions aren't safe or if the weather makes the water murkey the experienced captain will cancel. I know that is stressful, but he wants us safe and to have the experience of a lifetime. THAT IS WHAT WE WERE TOLD, BUT IS NOT THE CASE.

The ride to the crater was very smooth and they were both very friendly. Mikey made sure to explain everything to us so that there would be no confusion or incidents. And they were both kind enough to surprise us with a dolphin pod visit! On our way back, Mikey stopped our raft and surprised us with the presence of a superpod (a very large pod of dolphins)! Getting to watch dolphins are not always guaranteed, but I'm glad that Mikey and Angela took a chance for us to have the opportunity to see them. Both of our guides made sure that everyone was safe and most importantly, enjoyed our experience at Molokini Crater with them! Thank you Mikey and Angela!

From the moment we stepped on the boat, their energy was amazing, friendly, fun, and so welcoming. They created such a great vibe that everyone immediately felt relaxed and excited for the adventure. We brought a whole crew of kids with us, and at every moment we felt completely safe and taken care of. Angel and Rachel were attentive, patient, and always made sure everyone was comfortable and ready to explore. It gave us so much peace of mind as parents, which allowed us to truly enjoy the experience. They knew all the best snorkel spots and made the day feel special and personalized. More than anything, they treated us like family. It didn't feel like just a tour, it felt like we were out on the water with friends. We cannot recommend these ladies enough. If you're thinking about booking, do it! We're already counting down the days until we can come back next year.

    Sea Maui's cocktail sunset cruise was easily one of the highlights of our trip. Nick, Luke and…read moreJames were absolute rock stars. And when they say open bar... they mean it. Beers, cocktails, spirits, pretty much whatever you wanted and the crew constantly walked around asking if anyone needed another drink. The heavy appetizers were also way better than I expected for "boat food", chicken katsu, Chinese chicken salad, pasta salad and kalua pork sliders, everything was really good. (No pictures cause I mopped it lol) The cruise itself was around 1.5 to 2 hours and our ride was incredibly smooth, although obviously that'll depend on the weather. They also offer a kamaʻāina discount if you call to book, which brought it to around $100 per person for us. Between the views, legit open bar, surprisingly good food and an awesome crew, I thought it was absolutely worth it. Would do this again in a heartbeat.

For us, we prefer the Sunset Cocktail cruise as it's the perfect amount of food and drinks. This last trip, we took the whole family for the express snorkel trip. It's a shorter trip, which worked perfectly for the younger kids and didn't tie up a big amount of island time. Captain Nick and his crew was all about making sure all had a great time while keeping safety at the top of mind. They guaranteed we'd see turtles... we did! Immediately. I accused them of being remote controlled because they were there right on cue! I'm not a big snorkel guy, but I had a blast. We'll keep returning to Sea Maui. Greatest crew on Maui !!

    An Absolute Must-Do in Maui! March 6, 2026…read more Our morning trip with Makai Adventures was easily the highlight of our vacation! If you are looking for an intimate, high-quality whale watching experience, look no further. The Boat The vessel is fantastic. It's an inflatable-style boat, but don't let that fool you--it was incredibly stable on the water. It seats about 20 people, so it feels personalized rather than crowded. Most of the seats are shaded, which was a huge plus for staying comfortable in the sun while we scanned the horizon. The Crew A massive shout-out to our captain and naturalist Levi & Travis! They were the perfect duo: Safety-First: We felt totally secure and well-cared for the entire time. Informative & Funny: We learned so much about whale behavior, and their humor kept the energy high and the vibes great. Genuine Kindness: You can tell they truly love what they do. The Whales The wildlife did not disappoint! Since we went out in the morning, the water was beautiful, and we saw so many whales. We spent the entire trip watching them breach and splash around. It was a non-stop show of tail flukes and massive splashes. Thank you, Makai Adventures, for such an awesome and unforgettable adventure. We will definitely be back!
