Maui Whale Watch Cruise from Lahaina -Temporarily Not Available [Dec-May]

Awesome Whale Watching Experience!

Reviewed by: Jaclyn

This was a wonderful whale watching tour, we loved every minute of it. The guide was very informative, we have done other whale watching tours, but non as thorough in their explanations of all things whale. Other tours we have been on have had more interactive crew members aside from the captain, this one did not. But it was kind of nice to have a very relaxed, more calm experience. We saw whales as soon as we got on the boat practically, and the captain was good about not waiting around for whales for too long, but we would keep looking. The captain said this boat is the largest boat on the island, and at one point during our trip, a whale went under our boat to find shade! There are chairs set up around tables on the top deck which is nice to just sit and relax. One recommendation is to leave extra time for parking, as it gets crowded near the harbor. And it can be a little challenging to find, it is a hut outside right by the boats, I think it’s the last one in the line of whale watching tours, right across from Pioneer Inn. We had a great time, we would definitely go on one of their tours again!

Maui Whale Watch Cruise from Lahaina -Temporarily Not Available [Dec-May]

We got lucky and saw a breach close to the boat

Reviewed by: Gabriel

The captain does a great job of finding the whales and creating opportunities to let the whales approach. Very friendly staff made us feel welcome. The only thing I have concerns with is the lack of ability to social distance or avoid touching high traffic handrails due to safety, but luckily we brought our own hand sanitizer (which I recommend). Overall a great trip, and everyone in my group had a great time.

Maui Whale Watch Cruise from Lahaina -Temporarily Not Available [Dec-May]

Tourism that supports the scientific community

Reviewed by: Trini

We had a family excursion and it was perfect. As we had 2 elderly family members, we loved that the boat was double decked so there was always shade for them. We also liked that the excursion has a ton of great photo opportunities of the ocean and mainland, so we got some awesome family photos. The best part of the trip though was the fact that parts of the revenue goes towards funding researchers who are working on studying the whale populations, which makes you feel good at the end of the day about the purchase, even if you don't get to see the whales up close.

Maui Whale Watch Cruise from Lahaina -Temporarily Not Available [Dec-May]

Great family activity while you're in Lahaina!

Reviewed by: Justin

I went on this trip with my family (6 adults, 2 of whom are a bit older). It was something we could all enjoy. The best part of the trip was seeing a close up whale breach, but it does come down to luck... I imagine some people might only end up seeing fins during their excursion, but even though we got to see an up close breach on our trip, the captain invited us to stay on for their second outing that day in case we missed it so we were guaranteed to be happy (super nice of him).

Recommend you to definitely bring sunglasses and a cap as its really bright out and fatigues the eyes.

You also get great views from the boat of the mainland.

2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui

Sea Maui Kaanapali Sunset Cruise

Reviewed by: J.Gelman

Years ago, we were looking for a simple sunset cruise with some drinks and apps. We did not want a big boat. We did not want a big dinner because there are so many special local restaurants to try on Maui. Then we stumbled upon Sea Maui. It is perfect. A relaxing ride on a catamaran. Taking in the sunset. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. The apps are still filled with local foods. Every time we go to Maui, we try to book with Sea Maui. it was just what we were looking for and more.

Beautiful Sunset! Fabulous to be on the water

2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui

Wonderful Sunset Cocktail Sail

Reviewed by: Cindy

This is our second time choosing Sea Maui Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise. A bit concerned this year due to Covid restrictions, but Sea Maui did not fail! Easy boarding/seating, the crew was SO friendly and engaging. Immediately went around getting cocktail orders from everyone. After we set sail, we enjoyed the beautiful evening on the sea, again with crew refreshing drinks if needed. They do serve appetizers and two years ago the protocol was everyone got up and got their own - this year crew distributed pre-packaged containers with all they offered, sealed until they got to us! You were welcome to request more as well. A singer was on board who played music/sang for part of the sail.

It was a beautiful night out, never once did we feel "compromised" because of Covid and yes of course out on the sea we did not have to wear masks. I highly recommend Sea Maui Sunset Cocktail cruise - the price is right, crew is fantastic and it will make a very enjoyable relaxing evening. Well worth the money.

Reviewed by: Dominika

One of the best experience in Maui! Me and my boyfriend had a blast relaxing and watching a sunset. The crew was amazing and chilled. You didn’t even have to leave your place because the girls were all the time checking on you if you need anything from the bar. The drinks were strong which was surprising (in a very good way). The snack was okay and the music playing absolutely the best they could choose for that kind of cruise! I recommend 100%, when I come back to Maui, definitely gonna do that again!

Sunset Cruise on the Sea Maui was just great. Crew was welcoming and took care of everyone. Drinks were plentiful and food was delicious. One of our group was a tad seasick, and crew tended to her and had tricks to make her feel better. Sunset was beautiful and champagne with chocolate strawberries was perfect!

Lovely Cruise and staff. , small dinner serving

Reviewed by: Nikki Contini

We really enjoyed our experience with Pacific Whale Foundation- we went on a snorkel cruise a couple of days prior to dinner cruise and had a blast. Solid staff with lots of Passion and knowledge about the oceans and specifically Maui.
The Dinner cruise was nice but we were all fairly disappointed in the food servings and 3 of our steaks were basically blood rare and we ordered them MR. it was too late to get them back on the grill. first course was a delicious good size at artichoke spinach dip. Or something close to that. It’s was tasty and plentiful but just a few pieces of bread for the whole thing and there was so much dip and no seconds on bread !? Kind of ridiculous, especially for the price of the dinner. The salad of mixed greens and some veggies was served with very tasty dressing … sure would have been nice to have some bread with that .. then came our entrees … so small ! A petit steak and one piece of chicken or a few prawns … small portions of protein then this outrageous amount of carrots. And a scoop of purple sweet pot mash which was tasty too. Drinks were okay- not great. Very sugary. … Mai tais , margaritas or wine were some of the choices.
Brownies for dessert were delish !
It was beautiful to cruise Lahaina area and eat on the water. Just wish the food was more plentiful - it’s really felt skimpy with all those carrots … just seemed like they were cutting corners. We ate when we got home. That should tell you something.
The staff wonderful , sweet, nice energy.

Cousins !

South Maui Kayaking & Turtle Snorkeling Tour with Seasonal Whale Watching

We saw so many turtles!!

Reviewed by: Deed

This was a wonderful adventure that added such fun to our stay in Maui. We stayed on the west side but made the 1 hour drive to make memories. And what great memories and pictures we have! This was the perfect amount of time! A total of 3 hours. Some paddling and some snorkeling. For a family of 4, two of which were kids, this was the best kayak trip around. Our guide/teacher made the trip even better. Jake was knowledgeable about the area, made conversation and connections with everyone in our group. He was very confident and thorough with what to expect and what we would need to do to maintain safety. He engaged the kids and even brought of ocean life for them to explore!
