Maui Whale Watching Tour Description:

During the months from December to April, the shallow basin between the four islands of Maui County (Maui, Lanai, Molokai, and Kahoolawe) is the preferred destination for Maui’s most famous visitor, the endangered Humpback whale! Migrating from Alaska to these warm Hawaiian waters, the Humpbacks come here each year to mate and give birth to their young. Marine naturalists will share the latest scientific understandings about these fascinating creatures, as well as their own personal experiences with whales, and you will see the fascinating behaviors that make Humpback Whales so much fun to watch! Choose from an early morning or afternoon 2 hour whale watching adventure (seasonal), where  whale sightings are guaranteed.  Our early morning Whale Watch Tours are offered on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Afternoon whale watch tours depart daily.  This action-packed, educational tour is your front row seat to one of the natural wonders of the world. (Check out our photo gallery  for a sneak preview!)

Marine Sanctuary Naturalists On Board

The Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary, which is jointly managed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the State of Hawai`i, lies within the shallow warm waters surrounding the main Hawaiian Islands and constitutes one of the world’s most important humpback whale habitats. Through education, research and resource protection activities, the sanctuary strives to protect humpback whales and their habitat in Hawai`i. Kai Kanani donates and supports the Whale Sanctuary and has Marine Naturalists from the Whale Sanctuary on board all tours during Humpback whale season (December thru April).  Humpback whales are an endangered species protected by Federal law, and approach limits specify no closer than 100 yards under power. However it is not uncommon in these whale-dense waters for whales to closely approach, and even surround, our boat! Whales, it seems, don’t read the Federal statutes!

What To Wear & Bring:

Make sure you are wearing beach clothes that can get wet.  We’ll pick you up at the beach in front of  Makena Beach & Golf Resort.
