This is a great tour. The crew was very experienced and made sure everyone had a good time. We were able to see so many whales very close to the boat. Great selection of music and drinks. Would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Maui. We did this on our last day there, otherwise we would have booked it again.
Highlight to our Maui vacation!

This was a highlight to our Maui vacation! Ronnie was very knowledgeable and Andrea was very sweet and always made sure we had a drink in our hand! We loved the vibe they created for us on the boat and they went above and beyond to make sure we saw the whales! The whales came right up to us! It was unbelievable!! I highly recommend booking this activity with SeaMaui!

We did this two days in a row and loved it! We did see whales each day but just being on the water soaking in the sun and sipping Mai Tais was everything for us. Friendly crew, heavy pours, sunshine and whales- perfection!
