About
**The whole boat is yours!** Experience an intimate encounter with humpback whales on your private tour. Enjoy expert interpretation of whale behavior as you watch mothers and calves, competition pods, and hear the whale's underwater songs through our hydrophone. On our quick and stable rigid-hulled rafting vessel, you're close enough to touch the water. Remember to bring your camera! Every tour is different. Your experienced captain will customize each tour to give you the best memories for you and your friends and family.
**Morning Whale Watches**: The ocean is calmest first thing in the morning, making it perfect for early risers and those seeking serenity on the ocean.
**Afternoon Whale Watches**: The wind picks up in Māʻalaea throughout the day, providing a more adventurous ride. However, in just five minutes the boat can be in the lee of the West Maui Mountains and generally out of the wind. Additionally, the whales don't mind choppy water. Some days, it feels like they prefer it!
