Lowe was absolutely wonderful. She was so good with my elderly father and also with my hubby who kept falling off the kayak! 🤣 None of us were experienced kayakers or snorkelers but she made it easy and was very comforting and reassuring. She also took so many great pics so we will always have great memories of our trip. Highly recommend!!

I recently went on a turtle dive in Maui with Hawaiian Paddle Tours LLC, and it was absolutely unforgettable. My guide, Lau, gave me a true one‑on‑one experience, combining a peaceful kayak trip with a fascinating narrative about the islands, the lava formations, and the diverse marine life we encountered. The underwater views were breathtaking — not just the graceful sea turtles, but also vibrant schools of fish and other species that brought the reef to life. Lau’s knowledge and passion made the entire tour feel personal, educational, and deeply memorable. I highly recommend Hawaiian Paddle Tours and Lowe (pronounced Lau) to anyone looking for more than just a tour — it’s an experience you’ll never forget.

We had an excellent kayak and snorkeling tour in Maui with Heather. Our group was a party of 8 - my wife and I, our three adult children, and their partners - and Heather did an excellent job guiding a group of our size.
Before we got on the water, she explained clearly what to expect, and what we might see, which really set the tone for the experience. During the tour, her instructions were clear, calm, and easy to follow, making everyone feel comfortable and confident.
We saw multiple turtles and a wide variety of fish, and Heather even took us to some quieter, interesting spots away from other groups, which made the experience feel special. At the end of the trip, she debriefed us on what we actually saw tying everything together in a really thoughtful way.
On top of all that, She was entertaining, knowledgeable, And engaging throughout. Highly recommend Heather if you’re looking for a well run and memorable kayaking and snorkeling tour in Maui

Lowe was such a wonderful guide that knew the area really well. She took her time showing me how to snorkel for my first time while I was feeling a bit anxious. The pictures she took of the animals were beautiful however the ones with us in the background aren’t anything to write home about. Overall I wasn’t there for the pictures but the experience and she made it everything I could’ve asked for. I’d love to come back and have her show me all the good spots to see whales in the future

Our family visited Maui for the first time in 9 years, full of excitement. On our second day, I had a scary close call while snorkeling on my own without being properly prepared. So when my husband told me he had booked a “GROUPS • Snorkel & Kayak West Maui Turtle Gardens” tour for the kids, I felt a bit nervous at first.
But thanks to our amazing guide Lowe, we ended up having the most wonderful and joyful time together. Once we were back home and I looked through the photos she had taken for us underwater, all those special memories came flooding back, and I was truly moved.
Thank you so much — this will forever be an unforgettable experience for our family. I highly recommend it to anyone; you definitely won’t regret it!
