Pride of Maui Afternoon Snorkel Cruise with BBQ Lunch from Maalaea [Open Soon]

Our favourite Maui activity

Reviewed by: Hayley

There were 5 of us that went on the afternoon snorkel and whale watch and all agreed it was a stand out experience of our ten days in Maui.
The staff are all very friendly, helpful and overall seemed like really great people who love what they do.
We were able to stop whenever a whale was spotted (we saw at least 20) not just during the first part of as was first indicated. The captain had an endless supply of information about the whales and all the islands surrounding.
The snorkel location was absolutely stunning. We had gone out snorkelling multiple times ourselves and this location was by far the best, calm waters, loads of fish and coloured reef.
The trip was finished off with burgers and vegetarian pasta for lunch and cocktails as we stopped again for a few more whale sightings.

We will be back!

Pride of Maui Afternoon Snorkel Cruise with BBQ Lunch from Maalaea [Open Soon]

Perfect Cruise

Reviewed by: Hawaiian vacationer

The cruise was all it claimed to be, and more. The snorkeling equipment and support were excellent, we saw lots of cavorting whales with commentary from the captain, and the food and drink were good and plentiful. We couldn't have imagined anything better.

冬季限定!ホエールウォッチングクルーズ <12~4月/英語ガイド/ラハイナ港発>

ラハイナでは絶対のお勧めアクティビティ!

Reviewed by: negibouzu

 冬の時季にマウイ島に旅行することができましたので、ホエールウオッチングを楽しむことにしてVELTRAさんで事前に予約しました。
 マウイ島に旅行される場合はぜひ参加したいアクティビティです。

 まず、ラハイナでは数多くのホエールウオッチングツアーがあります。今回参加したツアーはラハイナのパイオニアインのすぐ前のmain loading dockが受付・出港場所ですが、ここだけでも10を超える営業小屋?がありました。それにもかかわらず当日に申し込みをしようとして「満員」ということで断られ、別の日などを提示されていた方を何人か見かけました。事前予約しておいた方が良いと思います。

 当日はかなり風が強い日でした。しかし船酔いなどの心配はまったくありませんでした(ただし個人的な感想です)。もちろんまったく揺れない訳ではありませんが、船酔いのする揺れではなく、遊園地の乗り物のような感じのけっこうスピード感のあるものでした。
 ラハイナ港を出港して、ラハイナの街並みを見るととても素晴らしいものでした。これだけでも料金の元を取ったような感じでした(笑)
 前半ではあまりクジラを見ることはできませんでしたが、後半になるとかなりの頻度でクジラを近くから見ることができました。スタッフもフレンドリーで、「あっちに見えるぞ」、「10時方向だ」などと熱心に対応してくれました。

 乗客のほとんどは日本人以外の方でしたが、お互いに会話が必要な訳でもなく特に問題はありませんでした。
 船の形状は40人くらいが満員の大きさで、2階建てです。ほとんどの乗客は2階部分でアクティビティを楽しみます。一応、バーコーナー(もちろんソフトドリンク有り)もあります。飲み物のオーダーを強制されるようなことはありません。
 
 何点かアドバイス的なことでは、カメラやスマホのバッテリーは十分に充電しておくことをお勧めします。クジラはどこに顔を出すか分かりません。「ギューンと口先から顔を出して、そのまま海面に頭から潜っていき、最後にテールを出した後に水中に潜る」という行動パターンです。この間、20秒ほどです。そのため決定的瞬間を撮影するためには、いつもカメラをONにしておく必要があるからです。私は充電が十分でなかったため、良い写真を撮りはぐってしまいました(T_T)
 それから会場をクルージングしていると風が強いです。飛ばされないように注意して下さい。
 

  • ラハイナクルーズの小屋

  • 受付をするとこのような搭乗券を渡されます

  • 出港するとラハイナの絶景が

  • 出港後、しばらくラハイナの街並みを見られます

  • この辺りからクジラが

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ  <12~4月/軽食&アルコール2杯付き/英語ガイド/カアナパリビーチ発>

クジラ

Reviewed by: mikibuu

船はカタマラン。ビーチギリギリまでつけての乗船なので、ハッキリ言って濡れるの覚悟が必要です。
日本人スタッフさんは、いませんがなんとかなりました。
クジラは野生の動物だからと思っていても期待は高まりますね❗️クジラが、近くに出てきてくれた時は興奮ものです。
念願叶ってのクジラさん‼️出てきてくれて、ありがとうでした。
ちょっとした飲食もありましたが、クジラさんで、いっぱい、いっぱいでした。
この日は、海況も穏やかで晴天、風もあまりなく、コンディションは良い方でした。
私達家族はラッキーだと思います。
翌日ビーチに行ってみると、うねりがすごく、船に乗るのがさらに大変そうでした。
やはり自然相手、天気・海況・クジラさんの出現は感謝しかありません。
家族全員で見れたクジラさんは忘れません。

Luxury Catamaran Whale Watch Sail, Gourmet Appetizers & Open Bar [Dec-Apr]

Great Tour

Reviewed by: Laura A Davis

This is a whale watch worth signing up for. The Captain is an utter delight, and her crew were outstanding! The atmosphere on the boat (best looking one in the harbor) was relaxed and friendly. Instructions were given quickly, and we were off. We saw quite a few whales, with Captain & crew pointing them out. The food was a big surprise - it was excellent, and there was plenty of it. It was advertised as “appetizers”, but the chicken wings and ribs were so good, you could make a meal out of them. They also had quite an array of alcoholic beverages to offer. We’ve been on whale watch boat tours before, but this one was the best ever. My husband & I wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Our only complaint was that it wasn’t long enough, but that was because it was so enjoyable we didn’t want it to end.

たくさんのクジラを見ることができました!

Reviewed by: スイカさん

ネットで予約した日を1日遅く間違えて覚えており、明日はホエールウォッチングだと思った日の夜に間違いに気付きました(その日のお昼予約だったのです)。ダメ元で翌日朝に現地の連絡先に電話し事情を話すと、日本語ガイドは間に合わないがそれでもよければいらしてくださいとの事。無事上船することができました!ありがとうございました!
沖へ出るとたくさんのクジラを見ることができて感動的でした。写真では小さいですが、肉眼ではもっと大きく近くにクジラを見ることができました。
尾びれで水面を叩く音は迫力満点です。
割と雲が多い日だったのですが、外の席へ20分も座っていたらすごく日焼けしたので、日焼け止めは必須です。
また、船酔いされやすい方は対策が必要だと思います。外の席で波に身を任せるようにすると意外に楽でした。

Whale Watch Ocean Rafting Tour from Lahaina - Temporarily Unavailable [Dec-Mar]

Highlight of our trip.

Reviewed by: jp&el

Amazing experience with whale that circled us many times and went under the boat. He stayed with us for about 30 minutes - circling, and coming up to look at us - so close we could have reached out and touched him. Finale was when he finally left and gave us a huge breech. Simply incredible - no whale watching tour could ever beat this one. Crew wonderful too. Best day ever.

初めてのホエールウォッチングでした。クジラの影でも見れたら良いな、ぐらいに考えていたのですが、あちこちにクジラが現れ、想像以上でした。ただクジラが現れた方向に船が移動するとなかなか姿を見せないなど、遊ばれているようにも感じました。

Left on time and had a great time with a small group of people on this trip. Close to the water gives one a better view of these great animals. The crew was friendly and knowledgeable.
We saw whales and one up close, even went under our raft and stuck around. Never saw anything so amazing, we even got wet from his spray!
Better than we expected!

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

Incredible whale watching trip!

Reviewed by: Lisa S

We had an incredible time on this trip. The boat was clean and the staff was courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable. Our captain was great at locating whales and she was extremely skilled at maneuvering the boat so we always had the best view. Originally I had bought my ticket for 3 days earlier however, upon arriving in Maui my husband got sick and we were unable to go. I expected to have to just eat the cost of our tickets but I called the company and Sylvia was great and rescheduled us for later in the week with no penalty. I highly recommend this company and I would use them again.

Pride of Maui Afternoon Snorkel Cruise with BBQ Lunch from Maalaea [Open Soon]

A taste of it all!

Reviewed by: Madison Figg

First off, the crew was amazing. Wonderful, friendly, and never a frustrated or unhappy moment. They ensured everyone had all their gear, handed out drinks and food, and answered questions with ease.

The snorkle part of our day felt considerably shorter than expected, especially since looking at something so beautiful makes the time fly. If you are wanting lots of time in the water I would suggest another snorkle focused excursion instead.

The food was yummy and plentiful. One perk to the afternoon tour was it was less busy and everyone was able to get great views and seats during the whale watching cruise. There were so many humpbacks around, and we were able to catch some amazing breaches and slaps not too far from our boat. Because this boat was large it was harder to get as close to the whales as the smaller vessels, but was non the less breathtaking!

I would reccomend this activity to first time snorklers, and those wanting a taste of both the coral reefs and the open waves. I want to commend the captain and his crew for the smooth sailing and great memories!

Amazing time!

Reviewed by: David

Overall I think this was the best activity we did while on Maui. My wife and I had a great time and the crew did an amazing job. We saw multiple whales on the way to our snorkel spot. When there one of the crew members would act as a scout and point out cool stuff. We swam with 4 sea turtles. On the way back we had burgers and hot dogs, plenty to go around. Great beer choices and Mai Tai's as well. Would definitely recommend!

Overall impression of this company is outstanding. The trip itself was very professional. They are very safety oriented and make sure everybody on the boat is doing what they are supposed to do and all accounted for at the close of your snorkel adventure. The whale watching was very good as well. Beyond all the structure and safety of the trip is also the fact that they want you to have fun! They feed you great and drinks flow freely. Honestly this trip was one of the highlights of our time on Maui. I would highly recommend this to anyone, couples or families. Thank you for a great memory.

Outstanding Whale Watching Experience

Reviewed by: TravelNut

We did this tour during the whale mating season so we expected to see a whale or two but what we saw was amazing. At first the whales kept their distance but after awhile they began approaching the boat. Soon dozens of whales were surrounding the boat and showing off their dives, breaches and spouting. They were close enough to spout whale 'snot' on us!! The skipper said their nearness was very unusual and he prolonged the tour by 1/2 hour.

Whale Watching

Reviewed by: Tim Takach

It is hard not to recommend whale watching. Had a great time with the family. Seen a few whales up close but most activity was from a distance. A few awesome whale tails. The crew was great. If you never went whale watching this should be on the bucket list.

What to expect? A great view from either side of the boat and a relaxing day with sun. Crew members explaining whale behaviors and pointing them out so you can follow and hopefully get some great photos.
