From Lahaina Harbor: Whale Watching Tours Aboard the Quicksilver

Overview

Enjoy this 2-hour guided adventure in a high-speed catamaran to watch the whales in their natural habitat. Depending on the whales’ behavior during your whale watching trip, you may see the whales slapping the surface with pectoral fins (their very long side fins), flukes (the tail), the peduncle (the strong muscles attaching the tail to the rest of the body) and the breach, this is when the whale rises completely out of the water and crashes down again.

What a great day. Couldn't ask for more. We saw several males then a female joined and the flirting commenced. What a show. Then coming in a baby whale showed up. Who could ask for more. Plus sunshine!!

We had an excellent experience on the Quicksilver morning whale watch cruise. The crew was professional and attentive and the captain provided an informative narration throughout the trip. Within about 10 minutes, whale spouts were spotted and for most of the two hour cruise, we followed a group of four male humpback whales. There were a few breaches and lots of opportunity to see the whales diving. It was a very enjoyable experience and not very costly either. Would definitely recommend,

The cruise itself was amazing. The captain and crew were top notch. We had multiple whale sightings even though it was early in the “season”. Do not book with Viator. They are providing wrong sail times. We literally almost “missed the boat”. Sail time was 10 promptly, we boarded at 9:59. Viator told us check in was 10 and sail was 10:30. I give Viator a -1 star.
