Very knowledgeable staff and super friendly. Good adherance to the COVID protocols. Food was delicious and better than we expected. The only bummer was we were sitting on the wrong side of the ship to watch the sunset:(

I would have preferred a Japanese guide. Also, after the big jump right in front of us, we were able to see the baby whale do about 10 small jumps over the course of 30 minutes, which was better than I imagined.

Get your Feet Wet and See the Sunset! (...and maybe get engaged)

Reviewed by: Emily Feagin

The boat crew was amazing. You will take your shoes off prior to entering the boat and the crew assists with the facilitation of passengers onto the vessel. The main challenge is timing the waves with getting passengers on board. The crew did a great job with this and ensured everyone stayed dry (for the most part!) Once on the boat there are several different seating options: Bean bag chairs, bench seating down by the bar area, and seating on the front of the vessel. I would recommend sitting in the bean bags as they are comfortable and provide a great view (just be careful with your phone as there are slits it could possibly fall through into the ocean.)

Dinner was served on the boat and it was excellent. The brussel sprouts and chicken bites were delicious! Drinks were also served and the crew did a great job with serving everyone in a timely and frequent manner. The trip was extra special for me as my wonderful fiance (then boyfriend) proposed to me as the sun set over the mountains. My friends worked with the crew members to make the moment extra special as they deliberately turned the boat for us to see the sunset in our engagement pictures. During/after the proposal they provided us with a champagne shower and the rest of the bottle of champagne! Truly a moment we will never forget.

A++ experience!

I participated alone. I had some anxiety, but the check-in and boarding went smoothly. There were whales everywhere. Every time we spotted one, the captain and the other passengers would announce it and point it out, so we moved the boat left and right to take pictures! At the end of the tour, a whale came close to the boat, dove underneath, and popped up to play with us! Everyone was super excited! ☆ Since there was some wind and occasional rain (though not for long), I think it's a good idea to bring a windbreaker. It was a very valuable experience, and I was moved. Thank you very much!!

不安もありましたがチェックインから乗船、その後もスムーズでした。クジラはあちこちにいました。見えるたびにキャプテンや乗客の皆さんがアナウンスや指差しをして教えてくれたので船を右に左に飛び回って写真を撮りました！
ツアーの最後にはクジラが船に近づいてきて、船の下に潜り込み、顔を出して戯れてくれました！

I participated in February, and at first, I was worried about whether I would be able to enjoy it. However, I was engaged from start to finish. The price was reasonable, and the duration of about 2-3 hours was just right.

I attended wearing just a shirt, and it was comfortable enough. Please bring your own drinks. Be cautious about parking in Lahaina, as there aren't many options available. I parked at a place that cost about 1,500 yen for 8 hours. When I was in my early 20s, I would park far away for free and walk for 30 minutes, but...

2月に参加しましたが最初はみれるか不安でした。でも最初から最後まで飽きるほど見れました。それでいて値段も安く時間も2-3時間ほどとちょうどよいです。

When we went out to sea on a large double-hulled boat, we saw many whales spouting, and shortly after, we encountered one swimming leisurely nearby, which was thrilling. I had heard that a lot of whales come during this season, but I was truly surprised. I would love to go see them again when I visit Maui.

By far the BEST excursion of our trip. We took the 7:30am whale watching tour. The Captain was fantastic... we had very close, and multiple, whale encounters. The water was calm, the boat was easy to navigate with a toddler and family members with some mobility challenges. There was so much to see; the two hours went by way too fast. Highly recommend this company and crew! Thanks for such a great adventure. What a trip to remember.

This excursion was beyond what I expected! The boat ride was smooth and there was plenty of space for my friends and I to enjoy the ride! We had cute bean bag chairs to sit on which added to our excitement. The crew members showed great service and were happy to get to know us a little when the time was right and everyone on board had been helped. Very easy going and fun guys to hang out with! The crew even made our friends proposal extra special by turning the boat around at the perfect time so we could have the best pictures of the event- and were more than happy to celebrate by bringing out champagne! I also feel like I need to comment on the food- the Brussels were the best I’ve ever had- and being from the south, I’ve tried them many ways. If you’re going on this excursion, be prepared to have a great evening, get your toes wet, and enjoy the views. 10/10 for a great time and great company!

It was unfortunately rainy, but we were able to see a lot of whales! We got as close as possible according to the regulations, turned off the engine, and it was lucky when the whales came closer on their own. The announcements were in English, and when a whale was spotted, they indicated the direction using the clock hands.

There were only two groups of Japanese participants, but having a Japanese guide was really helpful. They taught us a lot about the whales and pointed out good viewing spots, so I didn't have to feel uncomfortable as a Japanese person who eats whales. If you're not completely comfortable with English, I definitely recommend requesting a Japanese guide.

生憎の雨でしたが、鯨はたくさん見られました！
規則でギリギリ近づける場所まで近づいて、エンジンを止めて鯨が自分からもっと近づいてくるとラッキー♪

You should see whales in Maui during winter. マウイの冬はクジラを見るべし

Reviewed by: ポルトマルガリータ

This was my first time in Maui during this season, so I thought whale watching was a must and signed up for it. Initially, I had booked a tour departing from Kaanapali Beach, but it was changed to Lahaina at the last minute. I was a bit confused, but since we boarded from the pier instead of the beach, it was nice not to get wet while boarding. (I received several emails from Veltra regarding the change, which was helpful.)

The frequency of whale encounters was higher than I expected, so in that sense, I was satisfied. However, I think it would have been even better if we could have gotten a bit closer to see them. The explanations about the whales' ecology were in English, but they were detailed and easy to understand.

The meeting time was 7:45, with the tour starting at 8:00. Veltra advised us to arrive by 7:30, but in the end, there was no guidance until just before 8:00, and participants seemed to be gathering in the designated area looking a bit lost, which made me somewhat anxious. The light snack was a ham and cheese croissant sandwich (which tasted good). There was also fruit available, but it felt more like a self-service situation rather than being fully catered.

During this season, there are a considerable number of whales near the coast, and for those who are sensitive to being on boats, you can also see them at the scenic point in Maalaea Bay.

この時期のマウイは初めてでしたので、ホエール・ウオッチングは外せないと思い、申込みました。
当初カアナパリビーチ発を申し込んでいましたが直前にラハイナ発に変更となり、少し戸惑いましたが、ビーチからでなく桟橋からの乗船だったため乗船時に濡れることなく良かったです。（ベルトラさんからは変更につき事前に何度かメール連絡をいただき助かりました）
思ったよりもクジラに遭遇する頻度は高く、そういう意味では満足でした。
ただ、もう少し近づいて見ることが出来たら、なお良かったと思います。なおクジラの生態等について英語でしたが詳しくわかりやすい説明でした。
集合は７：４５、ツアースタート８：００で、ベルトラさんからは７：３０までには現地へとのアドバイスがあったのですが、結局８：００ぎりぎりまで
案内はなく、参加者らしき人たちが指定場所で所在なげに集まっていたので、やや不安ではありました。軽食はハム・チーズのクロワッサンサンド（味は良かったです）。果物もありましたが、必要な人は自分で取にいく感じで至れり尽くせりという感じではありませんでした。
この時期は沿岸近くに相当数のクジラがおり、船に弱い方はマアエラア湾のscenic poitでも見ることはできます。

As soon as the ship set sail, we started to see whale spouts here and there. I thought we might not see any whales up close and that the tour would end like this, but then one whale approached and kept surfacing around the boat, showing its face and fluke. We also got to see other whales breaching.

I am very satisfied!

I participated in this tour, departing from the hotel where I stayed, and as others have shared in their experiences, boarding the boat that approaches the beach between the waves left me quite wet, making me wish I had worn my swimsuit. However, I was able to encounter more whales than I had imagined, see whales swimming right beneath the boat, and hear their songs, which created wonderful memories. The crew was also very pleasant, and I had a comfortable time.

The check-in area at the Ka'anapali Beach Hotel is very convenient, located by the seaside lawn. With the strong winds in Ka'anapali, we hurriedly boarded the catamaran, timing our entry just right. As soon as we set off, we were served mini cakes and drinks (including alcoholic options), and there was an all-you-can-eat dessert and drink service. The staff moved around among the passengers, engaging in friendly conversation while being attentive to our needs.

The two-hour cruise featuring dolphins, sea turtles, and whales flew by in no time. It seems that when the weather is bad, departures are from Lahaina, but we were fortunate to have good weather this time. The day before, the operator called to ask if we could push our reservation back by an hour, but they communicated clearly and patiently, so the time change was no problem at all. In the afternoon, we drove from Lahaina to the airport with our rental car, making for a fulfilling day. After spending three days in Maui, we left for Waikiki, where we spent another seven days. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Hawaii. I hope everyone has a great time!
