Highly recommend! Our dive instructor Annika was the best! She made my wife feel very comfortable when she was learning to scuba dive. She was patient and encouraging when my wife wanted to give up. Annika got her comfortable and down underwater with us! Thank you so much for the amazing experience, we will definitely be diving with them next time we come back to Maui.

Aloha, thank you for taking the time to share your experience diving with Annika and Banyan Tree Divers Maui! It is imperative that patience and encouragement be offered when a new student is getting through those initial uncomfortable moments. It is great to know that Annika provided this for your wife. We look forward to welcoming you back to Maui!

I had the pleasure of doing an intro dive with ABBY and let me just say she was A1(Spectacular). Very thorough on her explanations of the basics to diving and all the mechanics of our equipment. Iā€™ll be honest I was extremely nervous. But Abby made sure from the moment we got in the water to ease us all in and made us comfortable. I missed out on the second dive with her group which I extremely regretted! But my awesome fiancĆ© motivated me to reach out on another day and I was able to schedule a second dive with CHRIS. Not only is their customer service top notch on how easy going they are but their instructors are laid back and allow you to be comfortable before and during your dive. CHRIS was super laid back and allowed us to do our own thing but never once stopped checking in on all of us. I have to say Banyan Tree Divers were worth every penny. High quality experience all around. Well done to this company.
