What to expect

Set Sail on an Eco-Friendly Whale Watch Sailing cruise with one of Maui’s top Whale Watching Eco-Companies, The Pacific Whale Foundation! Sail on a luxury catamaran as you watch for Hawaii’s most famous visitors, the Humpback Whale!

Set sail from Lahaina Harbor on a luxury sailing yacht for a whale watch with one of Maui’s top rated Eco-Tour Companies, The Pacific Whale Foundation. Whale watching is one of Maui’s most popular seasonal activities. Every winter between December and April, humpback whales migrate from Alaska to the warm tropical waters of Hawaii to breed and birth their young. The Au’au Channel, located between Maui, Lanai and Molokai acts as a protected oasis in the middle of the Pacific, providing some of the most consistent whale watching in the Hawaiian Islands. Listen to the whales singing through the on-board hydrophone as you spot them breaching!

What type of boat is used for this Whale Watching Cruise?

The Ocean Spirit is a 65 foot state-of-the-art sailing catamaran certified for up to 90 passengers but is limited to 49 for comfort. Her twin hull catamaran design provides a very smooth, stable and comfortable ride, making your time on the Ocean an unforgettable time with the whales. The vessel features on-board hydrophones, U.S. Coast Guard approved Whale Protection Devices, an extra large deck area with ample seating, full bar as well as an air conditioned restroom.
