Enjoy some of the best humpback whale watching in the world during this whale watching boat tour departing from Lahaina, Maui!
The waters around Maui offer visitors to the ‘Valley Isle’ the opportunity for some of the best known whale watching during the months of December through May, when over 12 000 humpback whales travel from Alaska to Hawaii to breed, calve, and nurse their young.
The whales are particularly drawn to the shallow waters between Maui, Moloka’i and Lana’i, making the western harbour of Lahaina the point of departure for whale watching in Maui! When you join the passionate crew at Dive Maui on their whale watching boat tour, you are sure to have an unforgettable experience getting up close and personal with these giant and gentle sea creatures!
The whale watching boat tour with Dive Maui will take place on their uniquely built boat that allows for comfort, speed, and stability, whilst sitting low in the water so that you can get as close as possible to the whales (sometimes as close as a few feet away)! The small size of the tour (capped at 20 people) also allows for a more intimate whalewatching experience. Furthermore, your marine naturalist captain and crew will share their passion for the ocean and knowledge of whales with your time on the water.
For a special addition to your Maui whale watching boat tour, there will also be a hydrophone and high-quality speakers on board so that you can listen to humpback whale songs as they sing underwater!
