Highlights

Grateful to be whale watching this season from Lahaina, Maui!


Eye-level whale watching onboard our low-to-water small group rafts.


Native Hawaiian owned and voted TripAdvisors Traveler's Choice, Hawaii Ocean Rafting has been Maui’s original ocean rafting experience for more than 30 years. Our small group tours make for a fun, family style experience. Although whales are protected in Hawaii, they often approach our small boats for closer and eye level whale encounters.


New rafts this season! After the loss of our boats in the Lahaina fire, we are grateful to be operating 3 rafts this whale season!
"Kai"- 30 passengers, bench style seating, 80% shade
"Aloha"- 20 passengers, bench style seating, 80% shade
"Naia" 15 passengers, saddle style seating, 30% shade


We are just a short drive from Kaanapali, Kahana, Napili, Kapalua and other West Maui accommodations. And a fun destination for visitors staying in Kihei or Wailea.

Itinerary

2 Hour or 1.5 Hour Eye-Level Adventure Whale Watch Tour (Seasonal Dec-April)
*New* Temporary location and vessels for season 23/24 due to the loss of our boats in the Lahaina wildfires.

Same great eye-level whale watching onboard a low-to-water small group adventure raft or monohull boat. Hawaiian owned and voted TripAdvisors Traveler's Choice, we've been Maui’s original ocean rafting experience for more than 30 years. Our small group tours of 20 guests or less make for a fun, family style experience. Although whales are protected in Hawaii and we do not approach them closer than regulations, they sometimes approach our small boats for those eye level whale encounters. Tour includes searching for active whales and stopping to watch them, a full narration of whale and Maui facts by our marine naturalist, listening to whale songs on a hydrophone and lots of photo ops! Whale encounters and closeness of whales vary based on the wild animal's chosen behavior. Time of day does not affect whale activity.

* Whale encounters vary in their natural environment, the wild. No up close guarantee.
*NO PREGNANT PERSONS or children under 3 years.
