Overview

Our boat is really what sets us apart from other companies- we have a fast, fun and comfortable boat where everyone gets a cushioned seat, open viewing of the whales, onboard bathroom, lots of shade, and strong engines to help us maximize our time with the whales during your tour. Knowledgeable captains and crew who have worked among the whales for years will share whale facts and answer your questions. It's a great photo opportunity and most people who do it come back for more!

    What To Expect

    Aloha! Our group whale watching tours are fun for all ages and a great opportunity to experience seeing the Humpback Whales for yourself! Check in at MALA BOAT RAMP a MINIMUM of 15 MINUTES PRIOR to your tour time. If possible, it will be a Hawaiian style barefoot cruise to help keep the boat clean. Easy to remove footwear like flip flops are best. After a quick safety briefing, we will head out to find the most active whales. Our Captain and Crew will share their knowledge of the whales and are happy to answer any questions you may have. We do our best to provide the most personalized and exciting tours possible, but it's also important to realize that these amazing animals deserve a great amount of respect. We follow all regulations regarding distances, approach limits and make a big effort to avoid participating in any overcrowding of their space. Wear what's comfortable, make sure you have space on your camera and that the battery is charged and come out ready to have a good time!

    Q: Do we get to swim with or touch the dolphins?

    A: As an active member of the Dolphin SMART program, we do not have physical contact with the dolphins on WHALES GUARANTEED Maui Whale Watching Makai Adventures. We watch them in their natural habitat from the boat. Read more Dec 2022
