My wife and I had some time in the morning to kill and decided to do this on a whim. Definitely glad we decided to do it. Had a great time learning more about the culture in the South Pacific and got some nice time out on the water. We even spotted a few sea turtles that swam right next to the boat. Highly recommend.

We did the Outrigger Canoe tour through the Wailea Marriott. Kevin and his crew were so friendly and welcoming. Kevin told us a lot about Hawaiian culture and about the turtles. My kids are 9 and 12 and enjoyed the tour immensely. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Kevin and his crew made this a top notch experience. We learned about Hawaiian culture and history from a true Hawaiian. We saw quite a few turtles on our hour tour. Cannot recommend enough.
