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

Paradise

Reviewed by: Nikki

This was a great cruise! The team onboard was extremely friendly and engaging! Cocktail election was perfect and appetizers were on point! Although it gives you the choice to book with kids, I would caution taking kids who are under the age only because the group of passengers were clearly there for a good time. Overall great experience

2-Hour Kaanapali Whale Watch Cruise with Snacks & Open Bar - Sea Maui [Dec-Apr]

Attentive crew - saw many whales

Reviewed by: Rivercitymom

Overall the boat was comfortable and had space to move around if you wanted to. Crew was attentive and served up drinks and packaged snacks to anyone interested. We learned a lot about the whales, their habits and why they are in Hawaii. We had a very enjoyable time and would recommend this company.

Sunset Whale Watch Tour & Thrilling Ocean Raft Adventure - Koa Kai [Dec - Apr]

Incredible experience!

Reviewed by: Jana

We had an amazing experience on the sunset raft whale watching excursion. Our guides, Luke and Nick, were superb and told us so many facts about the whales. They were attentive to both my teenagers and my 9 year old, providing them with snacks and drinks and making sure that they had a great experience. We saw whales breaching and babies swimming close to the raft. It was the highlight of our trip.

Small-Group & Private Maui Whale Watching Tour - Amore Boat Charter [Dec-Mar]

Expensive; I’ve had better whale watching tours elsewhere

Reviewed by: M.R

This company won’t stop pestering me to leave a review so here goes:
I’ve done a lot of whale watching tours on Maui. I only chose this one because the company we typically use cannot run tours on weekends/holidays anymore (change to use abilities at the Mala boat ramp). This was the only other small group tour I could find.
Pros:
- Small group so you aren’t fighting for space/visibility
- Able to use a GoPro in the water off the side of the boat
- $10 credit per person at the General Store (which wasn’t advertised in activity description)

Cons:
- Whale watching is better from Lahaina and not as good from Ma’alaea
- Boat doesn’t go very fast so you don’t get the opportunity to get as much action
- Staff were less experienced and didn’t have a lot of knowledge about the whales/whale behavior
- Much more expensive than other tours

The best whale watching ever!!

Reviewed by: CatandHat

We had the best time whale watching! Captain Paul, and Micah are wonderful!! Captain Paul, piloted us towards multiple whale pods, he and Micah pointed out the whales, showing us the females, calves, and escort male whales. We were given great information regarding their travels, rituals, and behaviors. It was truly an awesome experience!l We can’t wait to do it again!

They treated us with so much aloha spirit that they are the only ones we would want to go out with again!!

PacWhale Eco-Adventures 2-Hour Whale Watching Tours from Maalaea [Nov-Apr]

Far exceeded our expectations!

Reviewed by: Meghan M

This tour was amazing. We went in February during peak whale watching season and saw so many more whales than we were expecting. There were almost no breaks in whale sightings during the two hour experience. The entire crew was fun and professional, especially Taylor who spoke almost the entire time to point out whale sightings, give us fun facts and information about whales, and discuss the importance of conservation. We rented binoculars in the store, which I would recommend to enhance the experience. The views were also incredible of Maui and surrounding islands.

Fun Trip!

Reviewed by: SDMama23

We thought our guide and divers were awesome and the kids had a blast. I think we expected to see a bit more ocean life. We saw turtles, mostly just one kind of fish (Trigger fish) and some urchin. It was still fun, but I wouldn't spend the money to do it again now that I know there's not much to see. Thank you!!
