Fabulous cruise and sunset views!
Activity Date: 2023/06/15 | Posted on: 2023/06/17

Great dinner cruise! treated us so well! We were treated courteously by the entire crew. The food was served well spaced out and was VERY good! Both of my sons had the steak and the commented it was cooked exactly how they liked it. I had the shrimp with a delicious sauce on it- WOW! The sunset views were spectacular. The Captain also did a great job with steering us out to smooth waters and I diid not feel seasick at all! I highly recommend for anyone!

I was able to see various fish and corals clearly on the seabed. The staff was friendly and nice, the boat was clean, and everything was explained in English throughout. Although the content being discussed at the time was different, there was a Japanese audio guide playing. The air conditioning inside the submarine was quite strong. It was a very enjoyable time.

いろんな魚や珊瑚など海底の様子がよく見れました。
スタッフはフレンドリーでいい感じ、船はキレイ、全部英語ですが終始いろいろ説明してくれます。
その時に見て話してる内容とは違いますが、日本語でガイド音声が流れます。
潜水艦内はクーラーが強いです。
とても楽しい時間でした。

No sunset and it sprinkled for 2 mins so the musician hardly played any songs. . Maybe two. Another passenger
Took pic of him drinking alcohol and not playing. We picked Tuesday for the MUSIC

Also, we were not made aware the food was available. My husband walked over and saw it available.

Couldn’t have been much better experience. Wouldn’t recommend.

This was the only activity my husband requested and it did not disappoint! The rain stopped and the sun came out! Staff were attentive from the greeting to departure. Very generous drink service. The food was tasty. And the sunset. Wow! Everything was on point. Thank you for the experience.

ホエールウォッチングクルーズ  早朝から夕方まで4つの開始時間から選べる <11~4月/無料ソフトドリンク付き/マアラエア港発>
Early morning flights are a great deal.
早朝便はお得
Activity Date: 2023/03/12 | Posted on: 2023/04/20

I chose this tour thinking that a large ship would be less rocky since I was with elderly people. It was a two-story boat, and we were able to sit at the front on the second floor. The boat's rocking was minimal.

There was a complimentary soft drink service, but it wasn't distributed to everyone; instead, those who wanted it had to go get it themselves. My family was so focused on watching the whales that we didn't take advantage of it.

We were able to see many whales, but we didn't get very close to them, which was a bit disappointing. However, I was satisfied overall. On a previous whale watching tour, the boat was smaller, and we could see the whales up close, which felt more thrilling, so I was a little let down this time, but I think it's just a matter of luck.

I heard that whales can be seen at any time of day, so I think the early morning trips are a good deal.

The parking lot had information about free parking in the tour's pre-explanation document, so we parked according to that. There are several free parking areas in Lahaina.

高齢者が一緒だったので、大型船の方が揺れが少ないと思い、このツアーを選びました。2階建ての船で、2階の前方に座ることができました。
船の揺れは少なかったです。
無料のソフトドリンクサービスがついていたのですが、全員に配られるのではなく、欲しい人が取りに行くという方法でした。鯨を見るのに夢中だった我が家は利用しませんでした。

鯨は沢山見ることができましたが、すぐ近くで、という状況にはなかなかならず、でも満足でした。以前参加したホエールウォッチングツアーの方が船が小さかったせいか、鯨もすぐ近くで見られてより迫力を感じられたので、ちょっと残念でしたが、こればかりは運だと思います。
どの時間帯でも鯨は見られるとのことなので、早朝便はお得だと思います。

駐車場は、ツアーの事前説明書に無料の駐車場の案内もあるので、そちらに従って停めました。ラハイナには無料の駐車場は何か所かあります。

Really great captain and naturalist staff. The boat ride was enjoyable and we saw several whales. The snorkeling was beautiful. They have staff on surf boards setting up a safety perimeter. We really enjoyed this trip! We would definitely book again if we return to Maui.

2.5-Hour Sea Maui Sunset Dinner Cruise with Open Bar from Kaanapali Beach
Incredible views, incredible crew!
Activity Date: 2023/04/04 | Posted on: 2023/04/06

Absolute must do while in Maui. We saw several whale pods, mama whales showing their young how to wave, and excellent views of the coastline and Molokai. The crew and captain were fantastic, high energy, knowledgeable, and kept the drinks flowing. Food was pretty good, definitely go with the short rib! The catamaran was pristine and well maintained. Instructions for boarding and exiting were easy to understand. I cannot express enough how much the 3 of us enjoyed this tour. We keep saying it was an epic day. So memorable and enjoyable.

We have been on several Sunset Cocktail Cruises on Maui over the past decade but this was by far our favourite.
The captain and crew were super friendly, knowledgeable & accommodating…they serve everything right to you!
Ukulele Dave was a great addition as well!
All of this + multiple whale sightings made for a great evening and we definitely recommend.

Great experience

This was a great alternative to actual snorkeling. The divers and staff were very informative and very friendly. They made sure everyone was happy and getting the most out of the adventure. However the water was murky and not a lot of ocean creatures. But you see what’s there at that time. Would do again. Certainly an experience we will remember.

They had a great crew and did everything to make the trip wonderful: small group and lots of fun. Well worth the price.
The only reason I gave them 4 stars is that we bought water shoes for the trip and found out when we got there it was barefoot only. Would have done things differently had I known.

It was later in their Whale season, didn't know if we would see many. We were not disappointed, at one point we were in Whale Jail (surrounded by them). We loved it.

The staff were so knowledgeable, learned so much about the Humpbacks.

Definitely would do this again.

Maui Kayaks West Maui Whale Watching Tour & Reef Snorkel [Jan - Mar]
Wonderful experience. Highly recommended
Activity Date: 2023/02/23 | Posted on: 2023/02/28

The tour guide took us into the ocean beyond the cruise ship (as in the picture below). We saw whales and heard a whale singing from under the Kayaks. Most beautiful experience. I’m not a pro at kayaking, but the guide was always looking out to keep us up with the more avid kayakers. He had all the answers to our questions. Could not snorkel that day as the water was murky. Had a wonderful time. I would do it all over again given the chance.

Lahaina Semi-Submersible Glass Bottom Boat Adventure - Maui Reefdancer [CLOSED]
A fun time!
Activity Date: 2023/02/20 | Posted on: 2023/02/22

This was a really fun little boat tour. Seeing the fish and sea life through the big windows was so cool. The boat ride wasn’t too long so it was the perfect activity to take our toddler on. The only thing I would caution others about this tour is sea sickness. The rocking of the boat can really be felt underneath it and can definitely make you feel sea sick. It’s probably not a good activity for people that have a tendency to get sea sick, although their staff is super outgoing and helpful to anyone feeling sick during the ride.

Sat on the top deck and got the trio of a lifetime! We saw 2 whales swimming under and around the boat, and then it happened AGAIN! We saw many whales and a super unique and lucky experience! The crew was awesome, loved the option to sit on 1st or 2nd level- just don’t forget sunscreen like I did. I would do it again!
