Maui Private 2-Tank Scuba Charter

What a great day! We did a full day, 3-tank dive at Lana'i with Dana, Tiffany and Cap'n Mikael. While the trip was not inexpensive, the memories are priceless. It was a bucketlist trip for my son as a gift for his senior year. We went a day earlier than booked when Maggie called and said a tropical storm was building and swell was growing. What a perfect decision that became as tides ripped the next day. Dana and Tiffany traded divemaster duties for each of the dives and Dana manned the camera when she wasn't leading. We felt safe, and completely comfortable at all times in the water. We brought our own gear and the boat supplied the nitrox. My son is a new diver, but not a beginner and I have logged a little more than 100 dives. Each of us felt at ease with the pace of the dive and with the experiences in the water. The locations were amazing. As with many places, there is quite a bit of bleaching, but the biodiversity during our dives were spectacular. The cathedrals were the first two dives and I cannot imagine going with a group more than our two divers and two divemasters. The stirred up sediment would have ruined the dives. The boat is as the company explains. For the two of us, there was plenty of room. It might be cramped for very large groups, but that is why we didn't want a boat with 20 people on it. Ha! The ride was quite smooth for a smaller boat. Mikael designed it himself and is a renaissance man and shared many interesting stories on our hour ride over to Lana'i. The crew supplied plenty of eats which we were happy to enjoy during surface intervals and Maggie in the office was super to work with when arranging our day. I would enthusiastically recommend MPD to any folks looking to get away from the cattle boats. As a great benefit, their boat is one of the first on the docks with parking away from the cattle-call loading zones and packed parking.
