MIDDAY SAIL WITH THE WHALES MĀ’ALAEA

JOIN US ABOARD OUR MIDDAY WHALE WATCHING TOUR ON MAUI!

Set sail into Maui’s whale-watching paradise aboard Akialoa, our 54’ performance sailing catamaran. With limited guest capacity, shaded cabin seating, and relaxing bow trampolines, you enjoy an intimate and luxurious experience on the water.

Our 1:30–3:30 pm Midday Whale Watching Sail offers a refreshing break in your day and a spectacular window into whale season. Keep your eye out for exciting humpback behaviors during this time, such as tail slaps, breaches, and playful surface activity. The ʻauʻau Channel, a shallow and sheltered stretch of water between Maui and its neighboring islands, is a renowned gathering place for Pacific humpback whales each winter as they migrate from Alaska to mate, give birth, and nurture their young. Here, the water goes from shallow to deep and back very quickly, offering ideal conditions for them.

Our seasoned crew shares fascinating insights and exceptionally friendly service as you take in the magic of pure sailing with minimal motor use. Feel the wind in your hair as we hoist sail, and the awe of witnessing the humpback whales up close.

Reserve your spot today and experience Maui’s premier whale-watching adventure in the heart of whale season.
