Went on the sunset luau cruise yesterday, everything was great! The team multitasked and they are very efficient and friendly! We saw whales for what seemed like the entire trip. The live songs and dancing were also amazing! The food was made in a way that most people with allergies can be accommodated very important for our family! There were quite a few parties on the boat but we never waited more than a few minutes for food or drinks! We usually don’t do paid excursions when we come to Maui but we had 23 family members that wanted to get out on the water. We will be back again thanks!

The team is great. We tried to go to the crater, but it was too windy. Went to another cove. No turtles, but plenty of fish. The boat is in good shape, the food was good (hamburger & hot dog). Then drinks after. Captain tried his best to find whales.

My wife has cancer and I was hesitant to take her, but we had the greatest experience. The staff was extremely accomodating, the food was awesome, the snorkeling was excellent and we were able to view humpback whales during their migration. Highly recommend the tour.

We did a sunset dinner cruise with the pride of Maui for our last day of vacation and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had in maui! Captain Nate and the crew were phenomenal in every aspect you can think of, from the safety and well being of the passengers to the music selection. The food was perfect (and as a career chef that's not a compliment I give out lightly), the Luau performance was amazing to watch and filled with passion, the drink service was some of the best we've ever seen, and even the socializing aspect was spectacular! Dancing and joking with the guests, taking pictures and mingling when the boat was stopped: it truly felt like going out on the ocean for a nice dinner with some good friends.
I'm sure a dinner cruise isn't the first thing everyone thinks of when there's so much to do on Maui, but I would absolutely recommend booking with this crew at least once when you visit!
To all of you that made this evening so wonderful, mahalo nui loa!

So I sat and read through some of the negative reviews and all I can really say is the following, the price was outstanding, the experience was outstanding, our group had about 40 people, we arrived early so we got to choose a good spot to sit, it was pretty windy that day but the captain did a good job at choosing a spot with less wind to help us enjoy our ride. Anyone complaining about having to wait out in the "sun" while you get checked in, honestly get a life, there are better things to complain about. The food was great, drinks were great, attitude of staff members were great and we really enjoyed the girls that danced! They did a phenomenal job 👏 would highly recommend.

What. A. Treat! We had the most fantastic morning with Captain Justin, Caden, Savannah, and Maddie on “Elua!” This crew was the bomb! So accommodating, professional, friendly, remembered our names, can’t say enough good things about them! The food and drink was great, snorkeling was gorgeous… it was just the greatest experience and we had a very large party to accommodate. 100% recommend!!!

The captain and crew of the Pride of Maui were Amazing! Extremely attentive, lots of food options and cocktails after snorkeling. We snorkeled at Molokini and then off the shore near Wailea. Such a fun adventure, we will be joining them the next time we visit Maui!

Absolutely incredible experience snorkeling on Molokini today! We had an early start, but they provided a scrumptious continental breakfast & tasty grilled lunch& beverages throughout the day. Such a comfortable boat & attentive crew. They really go out of their way to make sure you have a great experience. They are also safety conscious - I saw them work with non swimmers, 1st time snorklers, & children. Everyone had a wonderful time. This is an exceptional group. Book with them, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience. Captain and crew are absolutely top-notch. The ship is clean and modern and spacious. Snorkeling at Molikini was amazing. Excellent breakfast and lunch. Open bar. Cannot recommend the Pride of Maui and this crew enough.

We went on the morning snorkeling adventure to Molokini and Turtletown. Greeted by Captain Nate with a smile and introduction to his newly crafted vessel. Breakfast was promptly served as we were comforted by his crew Justin & Caden. The Captain was quick to point out the nearby whales and allowed us some viewing them. The vessel is new, comfortable and spacious. Great playlist for music! Lots of fish to see at the crater. After plenty of time there we ventured to Turtletown. More coral, lots of fish. Although I didn’t see any turtles some people on the boat did. Again after lots of time we slowly started our return. The bar was open and plentiful. As Justin was preparing our fresh bbq’d lunch Captain Nate pointed out more whales and plenty of dolphins. (What a way to spend a lunchtime!!). Overall a great day!!!
Thank you to the Pride of Maui Elua!

Our best experience in Maui! Originally booked on their older and larger boat, they moved us to their factory fresh smaller craft. The whole experience was great. Upon boarding we were given a nice continental breakfast. There was room to be comfortable on board. Justin, the captain, gave humorous descriptions of our trip and destination. As we cruised to Molikini (which we were fortunate to get to go as wind had prevented that stop the day before and after) snorkel gear was distributed and a lesson given. The crew (Austin, Lennie, Kayden) were very attentive and made sure we had appropriate gear. Upon arriving at Molikini the guests piled into the water for the best snorkeling we've experienced: clear water, abundant sea life, and beautiful coral. It was great. On return to our second stop, Savannah (first mate) fired up the barbie and grilled the guest's requested item. As at breakfast, plenty of food and it was as good as you could wish for on an excursion trip. Justin generously visited with us while cruising, making an entertaining trip. Our second stop was near the highway tunnel, and I was concerned that this was going to be a good stop. We weren't disappointed, and we were able to follow a sea turtle for five minutes, only stopping when going "out of bounds" of where the crew wanted us to be. The last leg back to the dock was the 'beverage' portion, with a variety of drinks provided. Multiple crew members made sure the passengers had their drinks of choice.
In summary, great crew, great craft, decent food, and fantastic snorkeling. Couldn't as for more!

We’ve done the molokini & turtle town snorkel tour multiple times now and it’s the best every single time, we’re about to go again soon! The snorkeling is always good, we’ve been to two different locations for the turtle town portion. The staff are very kind! They have the process down to a science so there’s very little wait time. Highly recommend wearing an SPF shirt and maybe even shorts, it’s better for the reef and even with sunscreen I always burn after being in the water so long (I’m always surprised by how fast time goes by on this trip, it’s so much fun!!!)
