Highly recommend - This was our second whale watch with this company. We saw lots of mama and baby whales. The size of the group was great. It rained on us but we still had lots of fun.

You cannot go wrong with Maui Ocean Adventures - I have been coming to Maui whale watching for 34 yrs and today was our second time with Maui Ocean Adventures. It was the most incredible experience we have ever had. From the small group experience, the incredible boat where there is no bad seat in the house to the knowledge of the captain and her crew as well as capturing incredible encounters with the whales, including a full breech on video was a trip of a lifetime! I am hooked on this team for all my future experiences on the beautiful Maui ocean waters.

Best Whale Watching Tour - The whale watching tour was excellent! We saw many whale and Captain Emma delighted us in explaining whale behaviors. We enjoyed hearing whales communicate under water. Special thanks to Captain Chrissy for helping us with seats on the 1:30pm tour. It was our FAVORITE tour on Maui.

Pure Whale Bliss! - Absolutely awesome group of people running this boat. Shannon and Alison were fun and knowledgeable and put us on the whales within 5min of starting the tour all the way until over 2hrs later. Mom and baby pairs, breaches, competition group and double tail action were just some of what we saw. And can't stress enough how awesome it is to do that and support a local company like them. And Macy is an awesome boat that offers advantages over the rubber raft style ones such as split level viewing and faster speed so you spend more time watching whales. Would 10000% recommend booking with them and we will be back.

Fantastic crew and boat! - What a fantastic whale watch trip! Captain Emma did an amazing job getting us respectfully near the whales. Her passion for these creatures is contagious! First mate Lainey was helpful and knowledgeable as well. The boat is comfortable and fast so you spend less time getting where you need to be. We highly recommend this trip and will be booking with them next time we visit Maui. Aloha!

Amazing day at sea watching whales! - The pink boat ladies of Maui ocean adventures are amazing! So knowledgeable about the whales and in tune to where they are. We saw whales before even leaving the harbor. Many mother calf pairs, escorts, and a lone male whose song we were able to hear. There were 11 of us on the boat with plenty of room. The small passenger limit made sure we could see and hear everything. This was well worth the price and we would have paid more for it. Such a great mid day adventure. Great job ladies!!

Best experience with Maui Ocean Adventures - This small company runs an efficient professional whale watching operation. If you want a smaller boat tour so you aren't crowded in with lots of other tourists, and want easy loading from a pier ( not off a beach) and knowledgeable captain James and first mate Mindy, don't waste your time looking at other companies, just go with Maui Ocean Adventures.

Saw some whales, couldn’t hear the guides. - We chose this one because it is woman-owned and run. We saw mamas & babies. The trip was disappointing because we couldn’t hear the guides. There was no audio which would allow people to hear what was being said. I didn’t take water because it was to be included but none was offered.
