Experience eye-level whale watching on a 2-hour eco-raft tour from Lahaina, Maui. Join Hawaii Ocean Rafting, voted TripAdvisors Traveler’s Choice, for an unforgettable adventure.
2 Hour or 1.5 Hour Eye-Level Adventure Whale Watch Tour (Seasonal Dec-April)
New Temporary location and vessels for season 23/24 due to the loss of our boats in the Lahaina wildfires.
Same great eye-level whale watching onboard a low-to-water small group adventure raft or monohull boat. Hawaiian owned and voted TripAdvisors Traveler’s Choice, we’ve been Maui’s original ocean rafting experience for more than 30 years. Our small group tours of 20 guests or less make for a fun, family style experience. Although whales are protected in Hawaii and we do not approach them closer than regulations, they sometimes approach our small boats for those eye level whale encounters. Tour includes searching for active whales and stopping to watch them, a full narration of whale and Maui facts by our marine naturalist, listening to whale songs on a hydrophone and lots of photo ops! Whale encounters and closeness of whales vary based on the wild animal’s chosen behavior. Time of day does not affect whale activity.
