I cannot say enough good things about the crew and staff of Ultimate! They are all knowledgeable, personable and hilarious. They aren't afraid to stay out just a few minutes longer in order to bring you a truly memorable experience, as was the case for our sunrise tour back on 16 Feb! It was my 13 y/o daughter's first whale watch ever, and we followed a group of male humpbacks as they teased us by going from one side of our boat to the other, back & forth, for a good amount of time, showing off for a female by chin slapping and rolling over one another! We had a few others that we followed prior to that group, but no breaches... until we headed back to Lahaina! Of course, when we're on our way back in they start breaching! :) And that's where the amazingness of this company and crew come into play. We stayed out on the water a bit longer and ended up having one whale swim under our boat and surface just a few feet away. I was beside myself with excitement! If you're looking for the best whale watch on Maui, Ultimate is it!!
