Maui Whale-Watching Tour by Raft from Kihei

Overview

Enjoy a prime opportunity to see humpback whales as they migrate through Hawaiian waters from Alaska between December and May. Setting out from Kihei, cruise to an area off the southern end of Maui with one of Hawaii's highest whale populations. You’ll travel in a large, sturdy raft that provides a speedy ride so you can maximize your viewing time. Learn about the whales from informative commentary provided by an onboard naturalist on this tour limited to 20, a smaller group size than most whale tours.

We booked online the night before as a group of three adults for a mid-day/afternoon whale watch in January, it was our favorite tour of our trip! The Zodiac style boat really flies across the water, and it's fun that they play music during the fast parts of the boat ride. Tim is a great guide! Very nice and knowledgable crew and clearly excited to see the whales as well. We learned more about whales from this tour than we did on the Pacific whale watching foundation whale watch (sunrise) tour that we tried. Would definitely recommend this tour!

We had a great tour, our two guides were very knowledgeable, professional and fun! These guys knew where to go, and when to just wait, and we had some amazing encounters with the whales! The boat was small enough that we felt like our group of 8 had a personal tour but big enough that we didn't feel intimidated by the whales. We will definitely be booking another tour when we return to Maui.

We thoroughly enjoyed our whale watching adventure with Zach & Chase. What a treat! We've always wanted to go whale watching and wanted to go with a smaller group. Redline was great! Small boats that maneuvered around perfectly to see lots of whale action. We even got to see a baby whale. Amazing! We loved our trip. 5+ stars!
