This was my 13 year old daughterā€™s first time diving. Mike was a fantastic teacher and dive leader who made it comfortable and fun. The two dives we did were amazing. Iā€™d highly recommend Banyan Tree Diving.

The scuba instructor was great and very informative! It was my 2nd dive and my husbands first. The scuba instructor gave us a good run down of how everything works. Their gear was updated and comfortable. The dive was awesome, saw a ton of fish, the reefs and even a large male turtle. Overall a great experience!

I had an unforgettable experience with my instructor Jen! It was my very first time scuba diving and I had a bit of trouble getting used to breathing underwater at first and had a mini panic attack. Jen was very patient and attentive and most of all very encouraging and empathetic. I was able to overcome my fear and anxiety and had two wonderful dives! She took me to see sharks (I mentioned I was sad I didnā€™t get to see the sharks during my snorkelling tour a few days before while others saw them) and sea turtles and octopus, we also saw trumpetfish and frogfish too :))) Jen was so personable and sweet, she even gave me a personal recommendation for best poke in town too (it was delicious!). I was able to rinse off at the headquarter and bought myself a tank top for a souvenir so I can always remember and carry this wonderful experience with me. I cannot thank Jen enough for my amazing experience and I highly recommend Banyan Tree Divers Maui <3
