Great tour! But I think a lot of it had to do with Josh! He honestly made it so fun, going into great detail about the island, stories about how he grew up and things his grandpa would tell him! He always made sure we were happy with what we were doing and where we were going! We saw so much and learned so much! Yay Josh! Lanai truly felt like a small cute community with lots of character and history!

My then girlfriend (and very soon to be wife) and I took this day trip for the first time in 1985. On this outing in 2025 we marked our 40th wedding anniversary. It was wonderful then and still is a wonderful way to spend a day in paradise. The crew was amazing. Between their stories about the sea life and history of the islands and the family run business, their humor and incredibly attentive and diligent work ethic, they truly make you feel special!
If you can only choose one activity to partake in while on Maui, this is it!

We had an amazing time on the boat. The food was delicious, the crew was amazing, and we saw whales. We were traveling with a 4 and 6 year old and they had all the perfect amenities for kids. 10/10!

Our ferry rides over to Lanai and back were great and the return was the best. We had one of the best sunsets ever looking back over the water with colorful cloud layers over Lanai. Also lots of whale activity in the morning and evening.

The cruise was amazing. The crew was very friendly & their service was topnotch. We had nice breakfast & the food was being served time to time. Me being a vegetarian, I was very happy that they also had some veg/vegan options upon request. We had decent amount of time for snorkeling in both the spots (Molokini crater & turtle town) & saw see lots of colorful fish & corals. On our way back we also got to some whales which was the best part for me. We really enjoyed our cruise, it was super fun.

I thought it would be a light meal, but they served a hearty breakfast. In the morning, there were scrambled eggs, sausage, Danish pastries, muffins, and fresh fruit. It was great to have four types of juice, as well as coffee, tea, and hot cocoa. After breakfast, only coffee is available as a hot drink.
The visibility at Molokini was better. Turtle Town was murky, but there were turtles.
You might also see whales along the way. If you're confident you won't get seasick, it might be nice to watch from the upper deck. (It gets really bumpy the higher you go.) For those worried about seasickness, I recommend sitting near a window on the lower deck.
On the way back, they also serve alcohol, so if you still have energy and aren't driving, it might be okay to drink.
軽食かと思いきやしっかりご飯出ました。
朝はスクランブルエッグ、ソーセージ、デニッシュ、マフィンにフレッシュフルーツ。ドリンクもジュースが4種類にコーヒー、紅茶、ココアなど温かい飲み物があって良かった。朝食後は温かい飲み物はコーヒーだけになります。
(乗船までの待ち時間、船上が寒い、特に海から上がった後)
モロキニの方が透明度高かったです。
タートルタウンは濁ってましたが、カメは居ました。
クジラも途中で見えたりします。
酔わない自信がある人は上のデッキで見てると良いかも。
(上に行くほどめちゃくちゃ揺れます)
船酔い心配な人は、下の階で窓の近くに席を取っておく事をお勧めします。
帰りはアルコールの提供もあるので、元気が残っていて、車の運転なければ飲んでもいいかもです。
Depending on the sea conditions, it can get quite rocky, so I think it's better to take motion sickness medication. Especially if you want to enjoy the view from the upper deck, it's definitely a good
海の状況によっては結構揺れるので、酔い止め飲んだ方がいいと思います。
特に上のデッキで海見ながら行きたければ飲んだ方が確実に良いはず。
飲み物も食べ物もしっかり用意されてるので、持っていく必要無し。

I participated in the afternoon session. After about an hour on the boat, we arrived. When I went into the sea, I saw beautiful tropical fish. After coming back from the sea, we were given hot dogs, which were delicious. Shortly after the meal, a whale appeared, and it was impressive to see two of them jumping one after the other. I took a lot of photos, and it was the best experience.
午後の部に参加しました。船に乗って1時間ほどで到着。海に潜ると、きれいな熱帯魚が見れました。海から上がって帰路に着くと、ホットドックが配られ美味しくいただきました。食後、間もなく、クジラが現れ、二頭が相次いで跳び跳ねる姿が印象的でした。写真もいっぱい撮っていただき、最高でした。
Don't forget your towel. The meeting place is a bit hard to find, so I recommend arriving early.
タオルを忘れずに、集合場所が少し分かりにくいので、早目に行くことをおすすめします。

We recently hired Aloha Blue Charters for a private charter in Maui for our family. This was a special trip to honor and carry out the final wishes of my parents. Captain Larry and First Mate Freddy brought us near their favorite area in Kihei and were very helpful and caring during our ceremony. It was a wonderful and memorable time for our family. Thank you Captain Larry and Freddy!
Booking was a smooth and efficient process, with excellent response time.

This was a standard whale watching experience. Boat was nice and clean. Crew was friendly and fun . We didn’t have much luck seeing whales, but it was early in the migration season. If nothing else then it a a nice boat ride around beautiful Maui.
Seats are first come first serve. If you want front row then pick up the pace when walking to boat.

We had a fully handicap person with us and the crew was great. They lifted her, in her electric wheelchair, onto the boat. She had room to move around the boat with ease. The bathrooms were not accessible but that was ok. The crew kept checking on her and made sure she was comfortable. It was a good experience, something that she wouldn't normally have been able to do. We were able to snorkel (not her), and didn't have to worry about her not being comfortable. We did not see any turtles, but got to see a small whale.
I would recommend this excursion.
We are so happy to hear you had a great time on the Four Winds! Mahalo for your review.

Booked the SUV trip around Lana'i. Our driver, Josh, was fun (even with a hurt ankle). He was informative and had loads of family and local stories. We lucked out with a very clear day. Saw a dolphin, whales, turkeys, deer, frankolins, and a beautiful views.
Right from the original phone call, until we were dropped back off at the ferry. The staff was great. Their response time is quick. The instructions they sent are very clear, we had no questions to where to go, what was going to happen, etc.

My total cost for this excursion was $242.30. It was not worth that price. The crew was sarcastic and snappy. They did lighten up as the morning went on, but my first impression stayed. Fortunately I’m a seasoned swimmer and snorkeling/snuba is easy, so I didn’t require any assistance. Lastly, it’s a big money grab without much service in return. I understand they are a business, but I cannot understand why they can’t pay their employees? Why do they guilt trip you into having to tip every chance they get? Even the emails leading up to it state the expected gratuity. TL:DR Molokini crater is amazing - you should go! Unless you’re dying to try snuba, then go with a different company and have fun.

Josh, our guide, picked us up right at Manele Bay Harbor. Got a quick tour of Lanai City and stopped for coffee, then headed to Shipwreck Beach. The drive there was almost as cool as the beach itself. Josh grew up on the island and had some amusing stories he shared as we drove. We continued on to the Garden of the Gods, it's totally other-worldly. We made a quick stop at the Cat Sanctuary, before catching the ferry back to Maalaea Harbor.
