Book this immediately. - We booked this sail right after Maui had extreme rain and thought this sail would be canceled. The sun came out the day of and we were able to experience the best part of our trip. Whales were everywhere, the boat crew was so incredibly funny and sweet, the cocktails were on point and there was great food. If you’re in Maui, this is a must. You will have the best time.

A Whale of a Time - Although billed as a “Sunset Cruise”, the highlight was the whales—the captain finds the whales—-this time, right at sunset, there were a half-dozen breeches!!!

SS Bourbon Trip - The boat was nice, good food to snack on, and the bar was prefect for the event. The crew are very friendly and experienced. The Sail went and then the boat just floated still in the bay. Was able to watch the sunset, not bad. Saw good whale activiity, and in the end of the cruise there were two whales breaching 8 or so times very close the boat. We think the whales were all fake ones though.
