Pacific Whale Foundation – Classic Whale Watch Cruise

You step aboard a comfortable power catamaran and head into the warm blue waters off Maui, home to the largest concentration of North Pacific humpback whales. Certified marine naturalists share fascinating facts about whale migration, social behavior and conservation research while you watch spouts rise on the horizon.

When the captain slows for a closer look, the crew lowers sensitive hydrophones so you can listen to the haunting songs that echo beneath the surface. Keep your camera ready for tail slaps, pectoral waves and full-body breaches that can happen without warning. Young explorers can join the onboard Junior Naturalist Program for hands-on learning and whale trivia during the two-hour cruise.
