Intimate Whale Encounters - Everything about this excursion was perfect; the boat is beautiful and comfortable, the captain and helper were both friendly and passionate about their job, and the abundance of whale sightings was breathtaking. The most special part was the intimate whale encounter that none of us will soon forget. We can’t wait to go on the pink boat again!!!

Highly recommend this whale watching company - This was a great experience, small group which allowed room to move around for the best views, extremely knowledgeable crew, and so many whales! Highly recommend this whale watching excursion.

Mind blowing and awesome beyond words!! - We had a once in a lifetime experience! I can't praise these ladies more!! It was absolutely amazing and we saw and experienced whales in ways that can't even be out into words. Most of the boat had locals and even they were mind-blown!! Great day!!

Marvelous Maui Ocean Adventures - Our whale watch was fabulous! Captain Emma, Reese and Lashawna were very knowledgeable and obviously, loved their job and the whales! The boat was perfect for being up close for viewing the whales. My husband and I loved our experience! He also has an artificial knee, but the boat’s accessibility worked well! We can hardly wait to go out with Maui Ocean Adventures again!!

Awesome experience! - My wife and I went out with a group of ten people on a small boat. The caption and assistant were very knowledgeable and helped to make our trip enjoyable. We saw about a dozen humpback whales, but focused on a group of five males competing for a lone female. We saw several breeches, and listened to their songs using an underwater microphone. At one point the whales came over to our boat as if to check us out. This was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've ever had.

Epic Adventure - It was epic adventure, the boat is pink and seem to attract the whales and a number of times they came right under and around the boat and the captain and first mate were wonderful. The music was great we danced. The boat was perfect for the trip, it couldn’t have been better.❤️ no idea

Fun afternoon whale watching tour - The boat was nice and fast, we had a wonderful crew. We found plenty of whales that were very active and jumping. The crew shared underwater footage they took.

Baby whale bliss - Fun day on the water. Sun was intense at 1:30pm, it was nice having the shade option at the back of the boat. There was room to move around front to back. We saw a pod of dolphins, a few whales at a distance, and then best of all, hung out near a mom, and a baby that was practicing breaching for the main portion of the trip. They were being escorted by a male we saw as well. We got some good tail photos, baby breaches, and saw them swim under the boat several times. Love how far out you go in the small fast boats, versus the larger sail boats we’ve done before. All whale watches are great in January, but this one was extra special due to captain Emma’s energy and knowledge.

Whales galore! - What a phenomenal trip! We had our 5 month old daughter strapped on to us in a carrier and she saw a baby humpback whale surfing/riding on its mom so close... so this felt very meta. Thank you for a fantastic crew and trip and great whale sightings!
