Aloha and mahalo for taking the time to write a review! 2/3 of the oxygen we breath is created from the coral reef of the ocean!#malamaocean!

Kevin and his team explain a lot about turtles, whales, and Hawaiian culture and history. This is much more than getting out on the water and paddling....which is part of the fun, too. They also provide bottled water...one less item to have to bring with you. I highly recommend this experience

We had a great time- canoeing out and being right next to turtles sunbathing in the water, hearing the whales chatter- our guide had an underwater microphone that we could listen to the whales and then the highlight was the whales playing within 50 feet of us- amazing tour! Highly recommend and our guide was wonderful giving lots of history and chants.

Aloha and mahalo for you review! The whales are once again back in Maui! This is my favorite time of year! Just yesterday we saw over 25 whales! A truly special experience in watching a newborn learning to breach! Malama pono and aloha!
