My wife and I joined the Makena Adventure trip, and were thrilled to find everything we sought from our day. Our guide Griff was impressively knowledgeable on a wealth of relevant topics, from the colorful bounties of marine life, to the islands' cultural histories, to the unique geologies that create the volcanoes, reefs and channels. The paddling was surprisingly easy,... More

We had a great day kayaking on the sea with Peter. He was very knowledgeable, and found some great places to snorkel that were away from other big groups. Peter found us some turtles to swim with, and gave a great tour. We were extremely lucky to be the only group booked that day. Highly recommended!

I booked the Olualu whale watching and snorkelling trip with my mom as a girls trip. Peter was really friendly and knowledgable. He taught us a lot about whales, nature, navigation and Hawaiian culture . His wealth of knowledge was so impressive! Out trip ended up being a private tour because no one else had booked on this day! Lucky... More

During our vacation we did a lot of exploring, hiking up to waterfalls, seeing the black sand beach, etc, but I think this kayak trip was my favorite. You meet on the beach and start by paddling out to deep water. I was nervous about this before the trip because I knew we'd be getting away from the shore a... More

Griff's tour was amazing! My husband and I went out with a small group from Makena to kayak the first half and snorkel the second half of our 3ish hr tour and we couldn't have been more pleased. Our guide, Griff, was fun, courteous, informative... just great! We immediately felt comfortable, learned a lot about the history of our environment... More

My mom, brother, and I went on the Olowalu Ocean Experience kayaking trip with Peter. Peter was full of interesting information about Hawaiian history as well as tons of facts about the oceanlife. We spent the first part of the tour kayaking, learning about the area and looking for whales The second half was spent snorkelling. The area we snorkelled... More

Our guide was wonderful. He knew a great deal about the history of Maui and it's people and the sea life. We were safe and everything was extremely professional. You will not find a better experience kayaking and snorkeling during your trip to Maui.

We booked a private morning tour with Peter for Makena. As promised the kayaking was easy and Peter was knowledgeable of the extensive history of the island and surrounding geography. Peter is a natural conversationalist with a great sense of humor.We are pleased we booked an instructor and didn't decided to rent kayaks and go it alone. It was a... More

Our small group allowed for a very low key morning of easy kayaking enjoying the peaceful ocean with the gorgeous backdrop of Western Maui. Snorkeling was a welcome dip with no one around but us. Aloha Kayaks makes it seem like a morning outdoors with friends instead of a tourist activity!

I called Griff at Aloha Kayaks hoping to get out to see the whales and the turtle cleaning station near Olowalu. He informed me that they were not doing tours out of this area on the day that we wanted, however, he was very accommodating and found us a guide to take us there anyway. Peter was our guide and...
