Dan, our guide, did a great job of guiding us to the prefect spot for snorkeling and was full of information...lots of coral formations, good variety of fish, sea turtles and lucky for us a whale right at the spot where we were kayaking (couldn't have ask for more). Snacks while kayaking and then lunch when the adventure was over...sandwich,... More

We had a wonderful kayaking and snorkeling experience on April 27,2013 with the help of Garrett. Indeed a unforgettable experience as we saw so many turtles, different kinds of fishes and a glimpse of a whale jumping while kayaking. Garrett also gave us an interesting information about the island. Two thumbs up! Highly recommendable....

My teenage son and I had an awesome kayaking/snorkelling trip with Garrett ... it was our first time and we were really just keen to try kayaking - he was a great teacher and made it seem effortless! He had lots of stories, and was really well informed about the area and the whales ... made it fun and interesting!... More

We went out today on their kayak/snorkel adventure in Makena and it was amazing! Our guide, Dan, was very well informed and fun to be around. He would also dive down to show us various sea life and even take pictures for us. It was our first time on kayaks and snorkeling and it was a great trip out there.... More

We arrived about 30 minutes early because we didn't know how long the drive/traffic would be. Garrett was already there and set up for us to get ready. Garrett provided a bottle of water for those that forgot or wanted extra. A very quick safety briefing, some very helpful tips and we were off ahead of schedule. Unfortunately we went... More

Garrett provided my family with an incredible kayaking experience today. His knowledge, general disposition, and handling a group of 10 (3 family entities) provided an unforgettable experience. What we thought was a kayak excursion to turtle snorkeling areas changed into mainly a whale observing experience. I'm sure we were lucky as we heard the whale sing, saw the whale underwater,...

We met our terrific guide, Garrett, at Makena Landing at 7:00am. From there, he gave us a really good briefing that had our group (including one very nervous person) feeling good about getting in the kayaks on the water. We then kayaked out to a spot to watch the whales. There were a few different groups out there, but we... More

We went on a beautiful, still morning. Paddled out and watched humpback whales in every direction. Listened to the males sing while sitting quietly in our kayaks. Paddled to the reef and snorkeled around countless sea turtles. Guide Chris was great. Safety instruction and general info was thorough and helpful. Knowledge of the subjects of the tour (animals, the island,... More

I was leary of kayaking because I was afraid I wouldn't be able to keep up but no worries. It wasn't difficult at all. And our guide, Steve, was very patient...and very I formative. We had a humpback come between our two kayaks! You could watch the beautiful turquoise as it traveled between our kayaks and came up about 20... More
