This was an overall great experience! Jason was an amazingly fun and patient teacher. The members of our group had a variety of prior experiences, and he did a great job equalizing the group and helping everyone. We saw and touched several sea creatures, and all developed great breathing techniques! Would definitely recommend to others, especially beginners!

Thank you to Gabriel’s Ohana for an amazing experience! I was nervous about snorkeling with my 12 year old for the first time, and they put my mind at ease right away. They were incredibly caring and attentive to everyone, and they kept a close eye on my son to make sure he was safe. Unforgettable, beautiful, and educational! 10/10 mahalo ❤️

Awesome experience, can not recommend enough! Extremely in depth guide of the corals off the beach. Unfortunately (and this is beyond the guides control), the corals close to shore are bleached, but there is still lots of sea life to see!

Best experience so far! This is our first time me and my 13 yo daughter. Gabriel Ohana crew made it feel like a breeze! The guide was super supportive and patient in explaining everything holding our hands. The Santa looking big guy with flowing white beard and 50 yrs of experience your in safe hands. He knows what he’s doing! Middle of the ocean he kept showing us the special plants and flowers. Each time he goes in like a jeanie grabs something magical! So much fun! He took my daughter with him all the way to show her 3 turtles. I got hang of snorkeling in just few minutes and went all over the ocean by myself looking at beautiful fishes and magical coral reefs. Couldn’t believe this is our first time with very basic 5ft pool swimming skills lol.
Olowalu is definitely very friendly not so busy beach nothing intimidating here! if Snorkeling has been on your list like mine and haven’t got a chance yet guys this is the place to get started! Good quality life jackets keeps intact with 3-way plugs. I was in the middle of ocean just by myself! They’re not rushing. He lets you start shallow at easy pace then take deeper with him. If you are not comfortable he will ask you to stay there. Small group so you get personal attention. highly recommend this magical experience! After 2.5 hours of snorkeling definitely you are hungry. highly recommend checking out local trucks and smoothie at Maui butterfly farms just a mile back from snorkeling point. We went to Leoda’s Pie and Sandwiches was so good! lots of vegan options too! my daughter loved the fresh fish sandwich and traditional chocolate coconut pie and fresh baked cookies there!

Although the weather conditions did not allow us to go snorkeling, this company stayed in communication with me and was very friendly. I would recommend them and will try again when we visit the island again.

Best snorkeling experience! The team was extremely patient and friendly. There was absolutely no rush in the entire session. Great equipment, they were there supporting the entire time. They made my kids so comfortable, my 8 year old enjoyed it thoroughly!. Highly recommend them. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Gabriel and his dad are the best and most patient snorkeling teachers in town. My wife didn't know how to swim, and they made her first time snorkeling experience super memorable! Thank you Gabreil & team. We loved the experience.
Brenda_E, Sep 2025
This was an amazing experience with literally the best instructor we could have asked for !
He made sure we were well informed about the entire process while always making us feel safe. I recommend booking him you will not be disappointed, we will definitely be booking him again on our next trip to Maui.
Thank you soo much for a wonderful experience!

We loved our first time snorkeling experience with Gabriel’s Ohana. They are a lovely team, very friendly and accommodating. As a non swimmer, this snorkeling tour was great for me and I am so happy I got to see the reefs, fishes and even a turtle. Would definitely recommend them to any beginner planning to snorkel and we would go back to them next time

Unfortunately, our session was cancelled due to rough waters. I appreciate that they put our safety first and offered to take us the day after or another day when better weather was predicted. They responded quickly to our questions. One being how long it takes to get our refund. They said they are not paid at this time and that Viator will refund it to us in two weeks. I hope Viator will be as good as the company. We would definitely try snorkeling with them next time.

Great for beginners. Step by step instructions on how to snorke. Plenty of safety equipment. My wife has bad anxiety and they were so nice trying to help her. Would recommend to any one especially someone just learning

We had an absolutely amazing time snorkeling today! The team was incredibly informative, taking the time to explain everything thoroughly and ensure we felt confident before diving in. Their patience truly stood out – we never felt rushed and were encouraged to explore at our own pace. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced, their guidance made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy snorkeling with a knowledgeable and friendly team!
