I went for this dive session on Christmas Eve with Caitlin (the co owner) and two others in the group. The way she explained things before we went into the water I could tell by the calm confidence in her voice that she’d done this 100s of times before and I was in good hands. During the dive she hit the perfect balance of giving me my space to see wonderful sights under water and making sure I was close at and and didn’t veer off. I would recommend Banyan to anyone looking to learn scuba diving. You can’t go wrong with them :)

I 10/10 recommend this company for new and experienced divers coming to Lahaina. Caitlin was very welcoming and patient with my dad and uncle who do not have much experience in swimming. Airport beach was were we first started and she explained everything in detail! Then we had the opportunity to go to Mala pier, in which I went. I highly recommend going on the second dive at Mala pier if you did not have difficulty on the first. It was definitely one of the most beautiful things ive ever done!! Definitely go on shore dives rather than boat dives that at triple the money if you can swim well!!

Banyan tree divers is unlike any other outdoor tourist activity, snorkel tour, whale watching, zipline etc that I've ever experienced around the world. It is a family-run, husband and wife outfit where the instructors treat you like family. They put a ton of effort into finding the perfect dive site for the day's conditions. We met them at one of the island's best breakfast spots and they escorted us a few minutes to the dive site. They provide everything you need, and you can tell they put a ton of effort into having the best dive gear for every sized person imaginable. Even though I'm very comfortable in the ocean (surfer, snorkeller, sailer) this was my first time diving and I was a bit intimidated. Caitlin literally took me by the hand, taught me everything I needed to know and about 30 minutes later I was confidently diving through an amazing coral reef, trying to keep track of how many turtles I saw. I can't believe I've waited so long to try Scuba. It's easier than snorkeling! I cannot wait to return and go diving with Banyan Tree Divers! Diving with them is the best outdoor activity on Maui!!!
