100% recommend for NON Swimmers with no swim experience! JOE was freaking AMAZING!

This was an amazing experience from start to finish! My husband can NOT swim at all and has not really ever been in water over his chest and never in the ocean. Joe was absolutely awesome at reassuring him and keeping him safe and allowing us both to enjoy this experience together! My husband almost bailed and went back to shore in the first 5 minutes because he was in his head and started to panic a bit but Joe was so calm and reassuring and put him at ease that he hung with it and so happy he did! We got to see 3 turtles, the big one swam under my husband and bumped his shell on his belly it was the coolest thing ever! We also got to hold an octopus a starfish and a sea urchin! We highly recommend Joe and would book again with him in a minute he is funny knowledgeable and has a true love for his job and a passion for the ocean and Sealife and it shows. When we made it back to shore my husband was so happy that he did it and was ready to go again. Thank you for making this an amazing memory and our favorite experience on this vacation.

Amazing experience for non-swimmers!

My wife and I booked the non-swimmer snorkeling experience, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our Maui trip. My wife got comfortable within about 5 minutes in the shallow water, but I completely panicked at first 😅. Joe was incredibly patient and reassuring. He used a paddleboard float that I could hold onto and actually swam alongside me until I felt comfortable on my own. Eventually, I got the hang of it and had an absolute blast! We got to see a shark (mini one), an octopus , starfish , and sea turtles , which made the experience even more memorable. If you're a non-swimmer or nervous about snorkeling, definitely book this experience. Joe’s guidance and patience made all the difference. It was 100% worth adding to our Maui trip, and I would absolutely recommend it!
