Your tour will depart from Lahaina onboard a luxury sailing catamaran with a spacious deck. Your trained captain and crew will take you for a spectacular 2-hour whale watching excursion in the pristine waters off Maui. During the journey you will witness the sheer beauty of Maui’s whales as they spout, surface, slap their tails, and flap their flippers.
You will also learn about the humpback whales from our on-board whale naturalists and have the exclusive opportunity to listen to whale songs from our special Hydrophones. Fun fact: Humpback whales are the most famous flipper slappers, as they possess the longest flippers of all cetaceans (around 1/3 of their body size).
We offer delicious food on board so treat yourself to some great food and drink as you enjoy watching the magnificent whales and dolphins playing in the pristine waters. Every seat is a front row seat!
After we’ve seen the humpbacks, you’re going snorkeling! We make 1-2 snorkel stops every trip and they are full of fun and adventure for everyone. Snorkel tours are beginner-friendly and include the right snorkel gear, flotation belts, snorkel instruction and a guide in the water with you at every snorkel stop. Rest assured you and your family will be safe while having fun and learning about the ocean.

Non-threatening encounters with dolphins, whales, and turtles in Lahaina, Hawaii! You will have many opportunities to take pictures and videos. To protect the whales, we do not approach closer than 100 yards, but since these marine mammals are curious creatures, we often find ourselves up close and personal as they approach the vessel.
During our Maui whale watching tours and private charters, we have hosted film crews from National Geographic, BBC Wild- life, and other elite marine life photographers! Be sure to have your camera ready for some great pictures to share.
After whale watching, we’re going snorkeling! We’re ranked #1 for Maui’s whale watching and dolphin watching because our marine naturalist crew know where to encounter marine mammals and turtles! Explore colorful reefs and get up close to hundreds of tropical fish in a safe and protected environment.
