Tyler was our guide and he was awesome! He knew some great snorkel spots and even found a reef shark to show us. Definitely the best snorkel experience we've had in Maui.

Wow. We picked Kelii’s Kayak Tours for the positive reviews and more intimate experience than the larger boat excursions. Still, we didn't expect the outing to become one of our Top Ten experiences ever. We met Curtis at 7:00 am to find it would just be the three of us that morning. Formerly in the Coast Guard, Curtis is proficient in all things marine, so we learned much about Maui and its ocean environs while paddling in calm waters with very few others around. Having kayaked only a few times in the ocean, his instruction was terrific – including helping us learn how to exit and board a kayak offshore. Then came the real excitement. We saw numerous whales breaching in the distance but after about twenty minutes of paddling, a whale slowly surfaced just 20 feet from our kayak. A thrill. As we stayed quiet in the kayak, we were then treated to 15 minutes of two whales “singing” back and forth to each other – likely a mother and her calf. Later, Curtis led us to a large coral reef where we spotted several sea turtles and swam through schools of fish for at least 30 minutes. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect morning in wild Maui.

FANTABULOUS!! Curtis (my guide) was phenomenal! I did this solo, as my other half was having the time of his life riding the waves. Curtis was kind, sweet,(quite HOT!) and very informative. As we chatted and waited for the others to catch up, we had the honor of witnessing a FULL BODY whale breach from kayak that was EPIC! This massive creature breached 25-30yds from us! So totally unexpected as we had posted up at least 100yds or more from the previous sighting! So powerful. So overwhelming! Curtis was tasked with entertaining a child with special needs (Down’s) , and he took it as an honor. No worries, as the little guy was fashioned with everything to keep him safe.., The little guest thought it quite funny to throw his snorkel in the water (not shallow) and it sunk. Curtis was smiling and positive as I held to the kayak (I happened to be close by and overhear, and I’m a nurse/former life guard) so he could free dive and retrieve... Curtis is former Coast Guard, snd his love of the ocean and Country are evident. I HIGHLY recommend coming to Maui during February and early March! When you do, please look up Kelii’s and request CURTIS! (He does scuba and surfing too!!) I am blessed he took my booking.
