MEET YOUR CREW
OUR STORY
Aloha! We’re Captain Brenden and Photographer/First Mate Monet, the couple behind Ocean Eco Tours! Originally from opposite sides of the country, we met in Maui and instantly connected over our shared love of the ocean. Whether it’s diving, fishing, or surfing, we’re always the happiest when we’re under the waves.
As a couple-owned and operated small business, we pour our hearts, sweat, and sometimes happy tears into every tour. Our mission is to provide unforgettable, eco-friendly ocean experiences that connect people to the natural beauty and vibrant marine life of Hawaii. We aim to inspire a deeper appreciation for the island’s waters while promoting conservation and respect for the environment. Through personalized tours, we hope to share our love for the ocean and create lasting memories for every guest we meet.
Join us for an unforgettable adventure, and let us share the spirit of Aloha with you through the magic of these Kona waters!
CAPTAIN BRENDEN
Meet Captain Brenden, a spirited adventurer from New Jersey. Growing up near the shore, Brenden spent his childhood fishing, diving, and surfing, developing a deep passion for marine life and coastal ecosystems. His love for the sea led him to dream beyond the East Coast. Here in Hawaii he chased his dreams of becoming a pilot and captain. His connection to the sea and sky fuels his adventurous spirit, driving him to constantly explore new horizons both in the skies and on the seas.
