Ultimate 2 Hour Exclusive VIP Whale Watch Tour from Lahaina Harbor

Ultimate 2 Hour Exclusive VIP Whale Watch Tour from Lahaina Harbor

Overview

Our Exclusive VIP whale watching tours are 2 hours long with a maximum of 12 guests. Our small groups make every seat a front row seat as you enjoy whale watching and educational talks from our marine naturalist onboard. Our inflatable rafting vessels are safe, travel quickly to find whales and a fun ride for the whole family.

See Humpback Whales that have traveled 3000 miles from Alaska to give birth and mate in a the protected Maui Nui sanctuary off Lahaina where the waters are known for being warm and calm. On our whale watches we could travel anywhere from 2 to 10 miles from Lahaina harbor, often encountering dolphins in addition to humpback whales. Guarantee whale sightings Dec-April, or go again for FREE!

We are locally owned and operated since 1982 and every ticket supports our participation in marine research projects and our role as certified first responders to whale entanglements.

This tour was nothing short of magnificent! Gabe and Vinny were very knowledgeable and experienced! They definitely want you to have an amazing experience and we did! I have been on other whale watching tours that came up short. This tour made up for it! We were able to see so many whales. And because of the smaller vessel, the whales came right up to the boat! Gabe and Vinny helped us capture the memories with our GoPro by instructing us on how to get underwater shots. We were even able to dip our heads in the water to see the whales in all of their beauty! I especially appreciated how respectful they were to the whales. When we encountered a mom and her calf, we did not chase. They also followed Covid precautions and everything was sanitized! I will never forget this trip! Choose this tour over a larger vessel tour, it will not disappoint!

Mahalo for spending your holiday whale watching with us! We are so stoked you had some amazing whale encounters with us while learning about protecting our humpback friends, getting awesome underwater shots and felt safe during the tour!

We went to Maui in Hawaii in February 2020, and stayed with friends, they took us out everday, and people told us at home, there is nothing to see in Maui, well we proved them wrong. We found the whale watch tour magnificent, we saw at least a dozen whales showing off for us.
