Great family activity- worry free and relaxation

Julie_P, Apr 2023

Highlight of our Maui vacay! Since we had 2 kids with us (5 and 7 years) they provided 2 guides for our private session. We felt fully safe and taken care of, while my husband and I could really enjoy the paddle board and snorkeling. Our guides Peg (the owner) and Chris really allowed us to relax and soak in the moments. When my 5 year old got cranky, they made sure he got happy again (luckily had some snacks on the paddlebaord for him!) We were able to get some “National Geographic”-like shots with an octopus, starfish, and urchin, which btw the photo package is a MUST. The photo package also allows you to just enjoy, and let them be the ones to focus on the pics (which they also were amazing at). Just super impressed and happy with our experience and would def recommend them to our friends! Thanks so much Peg and Chris!

Life Happens and sometimes Mother Nature takes over ……

June_R, Nov 2022

This is a unique review since we did not get to experience the excursion due to Mother Nature not cooperating with us.- which we fully respect and honor. Everyone should be mindful that things like this will happen and it may be disappointing, however, when the organizer is really great about checking in and communicating it makes the experience less disappointing! Peg was so o. Top of her communication and flexibility offering g various options with alternated dates etc. She was also so gracious about texting a wonderful list of her local favorites and things to do in Maui. We actually hit three of her recommendations. Best tips were how to get in places without reservations! We both did our best to be flexible but unfortunately it did not happen this trip but I can guarantee that we will book with Peg next time around! I highly recommend to all my friends and family as well. I’m pretty sure the private lessons would’ve been quite an experience based on the attention Peg showed us. Mahalo!

Turtles!

Christine_D, Oct 2021

Seeing all the turtles and being so close to them was amazing! Our guide was understanding of our different levels of comfort on the paddle board.
