Triston is the best. Wonderful morning of snorkeling. Saw three turtles and a ton of fish. Such a family friendly experience.

Done—still short, just upgraded 😄
Amazing snorkeling trip with our guide, G! We saw sea turtles and starfish, got incredible photos, and even used sea scooters. G made everything fun, safe, and unforgettable. Highly recommend—five stars! 🌊🐢⭐️

James was our guide and he was wonderful. Super friendly and very communicative. We loved how he was accommodating to our needs and thorough in his briefings to prepare us. Once in the water we had a beautiful experience snorkeling and hanging out with the turtles. The icing on the cake was the fab pictures he provided us to remember our experience.
Jennifer_B, Sep 2025
we were able to see some of the incredible under world, animals and fish and come 10 feet next to more than four turtles who swam along with us. The guide was so good at taking us where we needed to go and was able to show us everything and more than we expected
Richard_R, Sep 2025
The staff is well prepared and very knowledgeable. It's a pretty easy snorkel. Anyone who can put their head in the water can participate. G was a great guide. Everything about him says Hawaii, Ohana, Aloha and Mahalo!

best experience ever our instructor was so kind and welcoming and super chill and made sure we were all safe :))) also made us feel comfortable being our first time snorkeling!
Kenzie_C, May 2025
Absolutely amazing experience!! Made it very comfortable, made sure we saw a turtle, got to hold a few other marine animals. Can't even express how nice they were. When I come back will definitely be booking with them again!
Lauren_T, Mar 2025
This was a great excursion! We had an excellent guide, Ryan, who was very familiar with the way the wind patterns affected the area we were snorkeling in. That helped me feel safe in an unfamiliar situation. I had not been snorkeling before, and he took time at the beginning to show proper usage of the equipment. We had some practice, and I felt confident. During the snorkel, a sea turtle casually swam by really close to my husband! We saw fish and other sea life, and our guide educated us on some really interesting facts about the reef, the island, and the animals. It was a fantastic experience, and I would do it again!
DeAnna_B, Mar 2025
It was amazing. We got to see a few sea turtles and our guide was very informative. My husband and I loved it.
Aprille_B, Mar 2025
Seth was amazing! He was extremely patient with us as first time snorkelers. He took great pictures that we will cherish forever.
Wayne_a, Mar 2025
We had a BLAST doing this tour. I've never been snorkeling before, and I am so thankful we decided to do a guided tour instead of snorkeling on our own. Our guide was AMAZING and so patient with me as a first time snorkeler. He also took amazing pictures, and was very funny and knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend this experience!
Aanchal_S, Feb 2025
Our guide Seth was amazing! He throughly showed us as much coral reef as we had time for and pointed out all the fish. Even though we only saw two turtles, he made sure we got videos and photos of them. He even recommended a close by brewery which was fantastic!
Hina_M, Jan 2025
Great experience and our guide Seth was awesome. Informative, helpful and humorous. Will definitely go again if in Maui again.
Kathy_K, Nov 2024
What a fun experience! Shelby, our guide, was great! She was even able to find an octopus for me to hold! The sea turtles were huge. The one way valve on the snorkel was really helpful and the mask never fogged up once. She transferred the pictures to my phone before we left. Worth the money!

Had such a great time . It was our first time snorkeling and we gave it 10/10 highly recommended . Our experience was very informative and fun !
Paulette_A, Aug 2024
We swam for an hour and didn’t see any turtles at turtle town, and visibility was poor. Our tour was cut short d/t visibility. Overall, disappointed in the experience. Expected more from a snorkeling tour in Maui
Karen_P, Aug 2024
We went out to Makena landing to snorkel. While we were swimming, we got to see a couple turtles underneath us. Unfortunately, the ocean's surges caused rough waves, making it difficult to snorkel. Our trip ended being cut short, but we were fully refunded. We are super appreciative to the guides for having high service standards and taking full responsibility. We hope to come back!

We joined the Turtle Town snorkeling tour this week in Wailea and had a blast. Seth was our guide and it was a great tour with only us and one other couple (6 people plus the guide). The crew was super friendly and on time at the meeting point where we got geared up and they gauged everyone’s experience in the water.
After a very short van ride to the snorkeling spot, Seth talked us through the tour plan, pointing out where we would go and how he would point out things of interest. After a little while in the water and seeing lots of local fish, we spotted the first of 4 big turtles we saw on the tour, which was amazing. On the snorkel back to the beach we spotted 4 more and a ray heading off to deeper water. Seth got great video and still photos of everyone and airdropped them all to us at the end so we all have great memories of the trip. Highly recommended for a fun excursion and thanks to the team for looking after us.
Carlaina_I, Aug 2024
Seth was our tour guide and he was great! We saw so many fish, and turtles. He educated us on everything he saw and even things that we saw and weren’t exactly sure what is was! 10/10 recommend!
Michelle_C, Jul 2024
Great time!! The kids loved the scooters and we got to see some amazing sea life! Brought my own underwater camera and got some great shots!
Alan_R, Mar 2024
Wonderful experience. Seth was a fantastic guide and provided a great overview of the ocean creatures and the natural history of the area (as well as many jokes!). Don't miss this.
Michele_M, Aug 2023
The whole family enjoyed the snorkeling tour, especially since we saw so many sea turtles and other fish. Our guide was very knowledgeable and patient. Highly recommend!
Victoria_P, Jun 2023
Amazing experience! I did a ‘commercial’ tour snorkel last year on Oahu. My Splash Maui far exceeded that! My two daughters and I had Seth as our instructor/guide. He was patient, funny (corny jokes), and knowledgable. We tried the snorkel mask and flippers while knee high in water to check for any issues, then walked out to waist deep water along the old loading pier before putting them on again. I used a waist/belt life preserver, my two grown up daughters chose to go without. Seth had a lifeguard type life preserver that we could use at any time. Amazing experience with fantastic photos and videos that were airdropped to our phones at the end of the snorkel. Enjoy!
Anna_J, Jun 2023
I had the most AMAZING time !! 1st timer so I was a lil nervous but once we got all the way into the water and the deep area it was breathtaking! Seen a shark, turtles fishes I would definitely do it again! My tour guide Seth was awesome!! Definitely recommend him.
Dewey_E, Jun 2023
Amazing, our guide was the best. This was more than we expected. Equipment was great and the experience was first class.
Chris_M, Jun 2023
Our guide Seth was fantastic. Very friendly and knowledgeable. Took tons of pictures and videos of us and the turtles. Had a blast.
Ashley_K, May 2023
I didn't realize when I booked this trip, that the weather conditions and activity was tailored more towards non-beginners. I appreciate being able to reschedule to the next morning for a beginner experience!
This is a must do activity for those visiting Maui! I got comfortable with being out there and we saw amazing sights of various fish, turtles, and the conditions were great. Our guide, Seth, was awesome, very helpful, and entertaining! Seth helped make this experience for my sister wonderful and something we will always cherish. We loved that he handled the pictures and videos and showed us things around us as we got to focus on enjoying the experience!
Ann_R, May 2023
Seth was amazing in making sure we got to experience everything on this dive. Our whole group loved his easy way of showing us all the marine life. We saw an insane amount of turtles, some sharks, eel and beautiful fish! He kept us together, let us explore and really take our time watching turtles surface and dive. He swam down to get some amazing shots of what we were experiencing! Such a private experience! Seth thank you from our whole group! We loved talking about you and our dive over drinks and dinner!! Please check out Lahaina Turtle Town!!🐢
