Experience an unforgettable sunset cruise that welcomes all ages, offering tantalizing pupu (appetizers) and the thrill of whale watching against the breathtaking backdrop of a stunning sunset over the Pacific Ocean.
This serene cruise takes place aboard Maui’s latest luxury sailing catamaran, Ocean Spirit. We’ve extended the voyage by 30 minutes, providing our guests with more time to enjoy the presence of Hawaiʻi’s most famous winter visitors: humpback whales! This is the ideal way to immerse yourself in the essence of hoʻokipa (hospitality). Our attentive crew will serve a selection of premium appetizers and refreshing beverages while you learn about these magnificent creatures.
Our passionate and dedicated team not only serves delicious food and drinks but also shares up-to-date educational insights and fascinating facts about the whales, including tips on how to help them thrive. Weather permitting, we’ll deploy our underwater microphone so you can listen to the enchanting songs of the humpback whales, adding a unique touch to your sailing adventure. Join us for an enchanting evening on the water, where you’ll witness whale tails and sunset-hued spouts. The cruise departs from Maʻalaea Harbor, promising an evening filled with natural beauty and wonder.
