“Danielle and David took us to where Finding Nemo and Moana got their inspiration and we can see why. The water was so calm and pristine, our best camera couldn't capture the beauty of it. You just have to be there truly. They were rather knowledgeable and told lots of stories and history tidbits about the region. My parents came to visit from China and don't swim very well. They were beyond patient and kind making us feel comfortable. This was the highlight of our 10 day Hawaiian trip honestly. PS: If David's mother is reading this, David is a terrific captain and really great at his job!!! 🌴”

There was a lot of people on the boat and you have to go as soon as boarding opens if you want a deck chair on the top. However all the seats have great views and you can get up and walk around. The sights of blue lagoon are more than worth it.”

“We had a fabulous couple of hours on this kayak and cave trip. The weather was borderline stormy so we were not sure if it would go ahead but the guide (David) reassured us and found out what the 8 of us wanted (2 families, including 3 teens). We agreed on caves over long kayaking, which was a good choice because the caves were less scary and warmer than the sea breeze! We also had a special treat of coasteering before heading back. Again, scary but fun! In 2 seater open top sea kayaks we explored the coastline with David and his 2 colleagues (Diego/Tiego and Edie?) supporting us all…”
