2-Hour Kaanapali Sunset Cocktail Cruise with Open Bar & Appetizers - Sea Maui
Wonderful Time!
Reviewed by: Ray from St Louis
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!

Ocean Spirit Sunset Cruise with Appetizers & Seasonal Whale Watching Experience
Outstanding sunset cruise!!
Reviewed by: Ron eason
What a wonderful sunset cruise. The crew was amazing and catered to everyone’s needs. The appetizers were extremely tasty to go along with the live music on the ukulele. Our family had a great time and would highly recommend booking a cruise with this team on your trip to Maui! The price is very reasonable compared to other cruises.

Maui Submarine Tour by Atlantis Adventures - Temporarily Not Available
Unique experience
Reviewed by: Jared
Unique way to experience the ocean in maui. It offers sights most people won't get the opportunity to see. Seemed fish were accustomed to the sub and curiosity drove some to come up and stare inside. The only reason not to take the tour is if you are claustrophobic or suffer from motion sickness.

Premium Sunset Cruise with 4-Course Dinner, Cocktails & Seasonal Whale Watching
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.

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!

Had a wonderful time from start to finish with our tour guide John. He kept the trip lively and made it something special with his knowledge of the islands and aquatic life. Captured some really amazing sights of the fish and turtles on what felt like an intimate excursion. Would highly recommend!

Ocean Spirit Sunset Cruise with Appetizers & Seasonal Whale Watching Experience
Nice, short cruise with friendly crew
Reviewed by: RobStl
This is a nice 2-hour sunset cruise. The crew was very friendly and professional while being fun. The appetizers were a little fancy but just ok-tasting. The drinks, too, were ok. There was also live music by a singer who played an instrument. He was pretty good.
Based on our experience, this cruise is suitable for anyone, including for families and couples. We had a mix of both. Everyone had their own seat but we could move about as we wanted during the cruise.

We had a great time aboard Pacific Whale Foundation Whale Watch Cruise. The crew was very friendly and knowledgeable.. the boat was clean, and crew wiped down common areas during the cruise. We all wore masks and social distanced.. I felt comfortable and completely safe. Our Naturalist was friendly and answered all our questions. We saw mothers and babies and some with an escort. We had a wonderful day, the sun was shining and weather was beautiful. I would highly recommend this activity. Making the reservation was an easy process too.Thank you, Hawaii Activities and Pacific Whale Foundation for a memorable day!!
