Maui
Truly beautiful sunset cruise. The crew was friendly, the ride was perfect for relaxing and soaking in the sights. One of my favorite parts of our entire trip to Hawaii.
The breakfast and open bar were a great bonus, and everything was well presented and enjoyable. The boat was comfortable with plenty of space to move around and take photos. The morning conditions were calm, making a smooth sail.
The catamaran was comfortable and offered space for viewing and photos. The morning timing was perfect with calm waters and beautiful scenery along the Maui coastline
Took the family and everyone had a good time. Fairly standard aquarium. Would go again.
What started out as a rainy morning ended up changing our destination for snorkeling. The crew was fantastic and had a plan to pivot so that we could still get in some snorkeling. By the time we arrived at our new snorkeling spot of Molokini Crater, the rain had stopped and the sun came out for a brief appearance. Due to it being whale season around the islands, dolphins are few and far between per the ship's captain. Whales were a fine alternative to spot and follow for a while on our cruise back towards Maui and during lunch. The grilled lunch options were good and hit the spot after some snorkeling.
Interested in marine life, ask away. The crew is very knowledgeable.
We had a great time on our cruise. Great sights and wonderful staff!
Highly recommended!
It was a very rare experience to see actual whales up close.
I was also surprised that we could hear the sounds of whales underwater.
It was a tour that left the whole family very satisfied.
実際の鯨を直接見る事ができる非常に貴重な体験でした
また水中の鯨の鳴き声も聞けることも驚きです
家族みんなで大満足のツアーでした
I heard that the encounter rate with whales is higher from morning to evening, but I made a last-minute reservation, so mine was scheduled for the early afternoon.
I heard from other participants tha
朝から夕方が鯨遭遇率が高いという話でしたが直前に予約した為、昼過ぎの予約となりました
他の参加者は夕方で多くの鯨に出会えたという話を聞いていたのでこちらの時間帯が良いかもしれません
Glad to hear you had a wonderful whale watch and had a fun whale encounter with us! Yes the location is a temporary location since we are still unable to return to Lahaina Harbor after the wildfire, once repairs are complete by the State we will return to our location at Lahaina Harbor which is much easier to find, mahalo!

At the end of March, we took a daytime departure. What we saw was a mother and baby whale swimming alongside us and spouting water. Since we participated during spring break, the morning and evening trips were fully booked. If you're expecting to see the dynamic whales that you often see in photos, it might be better to consider the timing and season.
３月末、昼出港の便でした。私たちが見たのは、クジラ親子の並走と潮吹き。
春休みを利用しての参加だったので、朝や夕方は満席でした。
もし写真で見かけるダイナミックなクジラを期待するようなら、時期と時間を考慮する方がよいかな。
This is the only opportunity to show children wild whales. It's worth participating in as an experience.
子供たちに野生のクジラを見せる機会としてはこれしかない。経験として参加することに価値あり。

Jenna, Kevin and the entire crew were fabulous. A Wonderful morning!
We went out after the storm and the sea was calm, the sky was grey. The staff members were professional and friendly and the boat is perfect with different levels for spotting whales. We saw lots of momma and baby whales for this late March and were happy with our trip! Mahalo to all!
Our family had the best, and most gracious experience on our whale tour! This company truly cares about the species and their environment and it shows. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. We can’t wait to come again!
Book now! Don’t wait!
This was the most fun activity we did our entire week that we visited Maui! We loved seeing the whales, and had the best time snorkeling & seeing all of the fish & turtles! The catamaran was clean & organized well, the staff & captain were amazing! They were invaluable in finding whales & making sure everyone was safe etc! The food & drinks were excellent!! It was very warm, family oriented & welcoming!
Make sure you take your best smiles for the awesome photographer!!
Seating is first-come, first-served, but when a whale appears, everyone stands up and moves around, so it doesn't matter much. If you have a preference for sitting at the front of the second deck, I recommend getting there early. It can get direct sunlight in that area, so it's a good idea to have some protection against it. The back of the second deck has a roof, and the breeze there was pleasant and comfortable.
About ten minutes after departure, we quickly spotted a whale, and after that, we moved to different points and encountered whales multiple times. I highly recommend it. Soft drinks are free, while alcohol is available for a fee.
座席は早い者勝ちですがクジラが出るとみんな立ち上がって移動するのであまり関係ないです。2階デッキの先頭に座りたい、とかのこだわりがある場合は早めに行って乗るといいと思います。そのあたりは直射日光が当たるので対策はあったほうがいいと思います。2階後方デッキは屋根があり風も気持ちよく快適でした。
出航後10分ほどですぐにクジラが見られ、その後もポイントを移動しては遭遇、という感じで何度も見られました。おすすめです。
ソフトドリンクは無料でアルコールは有料という感じでした。
Please be careful as it's easy to forget to pay for parking. We managed to stay within three hours from the meeting time.
駐車場の支払いを忘れやすいのでご注意ください。集合時間から3時間で収まりました。

It's an aquarium in Maui where you can only see small and medium fish. Despite the high admission fee, there are few exhibits that are particularly impressive or captivating. If the price were a bit lower and parking were free, I think it would be a good place to learn about Maui's fish.
マウイにいる小魚、中魚を見るだけの水族館。
入場料が高い割に、感動する特別魅力的な展示が少ない。
もう少し値段が安く駐車場も無料なら、マウイの魚を知るには良いと思う。
Several small children bumped their heads on the step-like chairs in front of the water tank and were crying. In the dim light, the chairs look inviting for play, so please be careful.
水槽前の段になったイスに、数人の小さな子どもが頭をぶつけて泣いていました。暗がりの中、遊びたくなるようなイスなので、気をつけてください。

I saw whales many times. The meeting place was easy to find, which was great. I participated in the whale watching cruise on Maui in January, and I'm glad I went during the season when whales can be seen.
何度もクジラ見えました。 集合場所もわかりやすく 良かったです。 マウイ島はホエールウォッチグクルーズ 1月に参加させて頂きクジラが見える時期に行って良かったです。

The timing and pace of the tour were perfect, with plenty of opportunities for photos and taking in the land.
Glad you got some great photos on your whale watch tour , we are stoked you chose to adventure with us!
A memorable and relaxing way to experience Maui from the ocean.
I didn’t think the under water tunnel to be the same as the advertised.
Everything else was very informative
Purchasing tickets was very cumbersome. Why do we need a user name and password for something I may never use again.
We had a great time. Saw whale they gave us history and information about the whales today. Thank you
Great experience with all parties in my family. Make sure to bring a professional camera to capture the whale closely.
Sun protection is a must
This was my first time on Maui, and since it was whale watching season, I prayed for a chance to see them and made a reservation. I was filled with anxiety due to the strong winds from the day before, and on the day itself, the weather was gloomy and the sea was rough.
After about 10 minutes of setting out, I spotted a whale's spout! From there, we encountered whales continuously! Since it's nature, you never know what to expect, but I think it's a tour that can be greatly enjoyed!
初マウイ島、ホエールウォッチングの季節なので、出会える事を祈って申し込みさせて頂きました。
前日からの強風に不安しか無く、当日もドンヨリ天気に海は荒々💦
不安しか無く出向🚢💨
出向する事10分程度で鯨の潮吹きを発見！
そこからは引っ切り無しに鯨に遭遇！
自然相手なので何とも言えませんが、大いに楽しめるツアーだと思います！
The advance notice delegation was not necessary. Since there were no life jackets provided, it might be a good idea for those who are anxious to bring their own. I was fine, but for rough seas, motion
事前案内の委任状は不要でした。
ライフジャケットも無しなので、不安な方は用意されて方が良いかもです。
僕は大丈夫でしたが、荒々の海は酔い止め必須ですね💊

The aquarium is beautifully designed and very well maintained, with exhibits that showcase Hawaii’s unique marine life! Our family had a grand day here.
Aloha and Seasons Greetings Kara,
We are happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed yourselves at Maui Ocean Center and got to see Hawaii's unique marine life up-close.
We will be opening up new exhibits and tours in the new year. Ululani Shave Ice has also recently opened at the Ocean Center.
Please come back and visit Maui and Maui Ocean Center.
On Maui, the best time for whale watching is from December 15 to April 15, but it seems that whales start arriving around October. The two-hour cruise involves searching for whales, moving here and there. The moments when you can see them are brief, so you need to constantly scan the surface of the water.
マウイ島では12月15日〜4月15日までがホエールウオッチングに最適の期間とのことですが、10月くらいからクジラはやってくるようです。２時間のクルーズはクジラを探すためにあっちいったりこっちいったり。見える瞬間は短いので、常に海面を探す必要あり。
I recommend securing a seat with a good view when boarding. Some seats may have poor visibility.
見晴らしのよい席を乗船時に確保することをおすすめします。席によってはみにくい席もあるので。

Narration by Gracie-Ann was outstanding & the whales too put on quite a show !
Sunset cruise was very windy. Sunset was beautiful. Meal was ok at best. Value for your money was not there. Crew did a great job under the conditions.
It would have been better under better weather conditions. Weather conditions was a major factor.
Compared to the scale of various aquariums in Japan recently, it was quite compact. If you are proficient in English, you might be able to read the explanatory texts, but having a Japanese audio tour or QR codes for Japanese explanations could make it more enjoyable.
最近の日本に有るあちこちの水族館の規模に比べると、かなりコンパクトでした。
英語に堪能であれば解説文も読めるでしょうが、日本語オーディオツアーとかQRコードで日本語解説とかが有れば楽しいかも？
I think it's good for families with children.
子供連れなら良いと思うn

I was able to see many whales. The light meal (cinnamon roll, fruit, and one drink included) was also delicious.
たくさんのクジラに会えました。
軽食（シナモンロール、フルーツ、ワンドリンク付き）も美味しかったです。
The parking situation is complicated. I went to check it out in advance, but I wasn't quite sure and felt anxious, so I used the parking lot of the adjacent aquarium. The foreign travelers who were on
駐車場が難解です。事前に確認に行ったのですがイマイチわからず不安だったので、隣接する水族館の駐車場を利用しました。同じ船に乗った外国人の方たちも駐車場がよくわからないと言っていました。
