“So much fun!”

Blue Water Rafting

Take the ride with blue water and you will have a blast! We've cruised with Captain Jeff and Devon most recently and Captain Joe and B-rad prior. Both teams were a blast. They are funny, witty and really know their info about the Islands. I was really sleepy on the morning trip with Devon and he made me laugh which helped wake me up. We've taken several boat rides out of Maui-this is our favorite! Have fun- I promise you will.

This was the most fun thing we did on our whole vacation. Capt. Brad - B Rad and Co-Capt Devin were awesome. They must be the funniest comedy team on the island and are both very knowledgeble about the islands and all the marine life we encountered. We powered around the various snorkel sites on a fast boat with great music and had a great deli style lunch on board. Check out Blue Water Rafting and definately request Brad and Devin as your crew. Our family had a great time. Our 13 and 15 year old daughters loved it as much as my husband and I did.

“Adrenaline Rush!!!”

If you're looking for an adrenaline rush,then this is your excursion! On our last day on Maui we chose Blue water rafting. We had been on a whale watching excursion to Lanai with another company and it was nice...but nothing compared to Blue water. Captain Ron cranked the tunes and took us on the ride of a lifetime! Right out of the harbor we saw turtles and spinner dolphins. We got to spend plenty of time with the dolphins putting on a show right beside our boat. Next came whales breaching off the bow. Then came the fun part! The captain took off for the Kanaoi coast blasting the waves! We've been on other zodiac whale tours and river rafting excursions but nothing like this! The coastline was beautiful, The rock formations and caves were as pictured. But the fun was shooting over some waves that you would never think to ride in a million years! After the wild and WET portion we were taken to turtle town for some snorkeling fun. I think you need the snorkeling at the end so you can gather your heart back into your chest and quell your fluttery stomach. I have to say this trip packed in everything you need for an excursion on Maui. It not for the faint of heart.

We chose this excursion because we didn't want to be on a boat with a ton of people (max on this raft is 25) and it's not a slow sailing trip. My sister and I sat at the back on a comfy bench (the rest of the family were at the front). The speed you are travelling and the waves you are hitting are phenomenal. The back is not the best place to be if you want to stay moderately dry. It was a constant soaking! The trip leaves early in the morning so when you combine the time of day plus the speed you are going, it gets really chilly - INVEST THE $5 FOR A WET SUIT TOP at Snorkel Bob's or some other store (we forgot). We saw tons of dolphins that were swimming with the boats, whales and green sea turtles (not to mention the fish). The snorkeling was great. The Captain wasn't in a hurry to get us back (he checked with all onboard first) and our five hour trip turned into a six hour trip that was just exhiliarating!!! I can't remember the name of the raft we were on but our captain was Brad. He was fantastic - full of interesting tidbits and very funny. The breakfast and lunch was great (we thought anyway). We had a choice of buns, cheeses, deli meats and various condiments. Lots of cookies, fruit and muffins, juice and water. DEFINITELY A MUST DO!!!!

My husband Dan and I went on two different trips with Blue Water. FIrst we did the Whale watch with Devin and the captain, and then we did the 5 1/2 Molokini Snorkle with Dante and Brian. Now that was boat riding! It was a little chilly at times, so really do listen to them and bring a windbreaker! Had a blast!

Thanks Guys!
