Experience Maui’s top-rated whalewatch with the experts at Pacific Whale Foundation on Maui’s newest, ultra-luxury sailing catamaran, Ocean Spirit. This state-of-the-art catamaran offers maximum space and comfort, enabling you plenty of room to roam about for optimum viewing of our majestic visiting humpback whales. Ocean Spirit offers four whalewatches daily with multiple departure times from Lahaina, including sunrise, morning, afternoon and sunset cruises.

Informative and fun, each two-hour whalewatch is led by a team of Pacific Whale Foundation’s certified Marine Naturalists and marine biologists, who explain and interpret the social behavior of humpback whales. Listen to whale songs through underwater hydrophones, watch mothers and calves interact, and see males compete for females. Every trip is different; you never know what you will experience!

Whale sightings are guaranteed on all Pacific Whale Foundation whalewatches, from November 4-May 15, or you go again free at your convenience within one year of your cruise. We are proud of our 97% sighting success rate.

While onboard, enjoy an assortment of snacks and a variety of soft drinks and filtered water throughout your trip.

We are proud to have initiated and always execute “Be Whale Aware” policies in regards to safe and sustainable humpback whale viewing. We sail when possible depending on weather conditions or whale activity and may need to use our engines for the safety of the animals.

* Listening to whales on underwater hydrophones
* An educational talk by our team of certified Marine Naturalists and marine biologists
