Comments We loved Maui Dreams. The operation is very well organized, very safety conscious, and the guys on the boat, especially Don, the owner, is a hoot. The dive masters also took the time to tell us about the various islands, the Hawaiian culture and the types of fish, etc., we'd be seeing below. The boat is pretty roomy despite a pretty full boat. Also, the lunch is the best I've had on any dive boat - really good subs including turkey and roast beef. This is one of the smaller outfits, but the service is excellent and we felt truly spoiled.
We also did a scooter dive which was lots of fun. We took the scooters out to St. Anthony's wreck, dropped them and then swam around the boat. We saw two of the largest, most exposed frogfish I have ever seen. We also saw lots of turtles on this dive and others.
