This boat is very fast and gets you to the whales in a hurry. Because of the speed of this boat you will spend more time whale watching than the larger boats. The Maui Nui Explorer zooms from pod to pod, which makes this adventure exciting. This charter departs daily from Lahaina starting 8.00am and continuing through the afternoon to 4.00pm with each whale watch 2 hours in length. This is a great whale watch; however it is not that child friendly.

Maui Kayaks offers by far the most exciting whale watch ever. This whale watch is up close, personal and one with nature. With a central departure location in Olowalu that will work for everyone. The whale watching tour is 2 hours in length and departs at 8.00am daily.
Maui Kayaks will provide for you a whale watch of a lifetime. Please remember to bring plenty of film. As a rule of thumb for whale watching by kayak in Maui the best experience is at Olowalu as there are many calves (baby Humpback Whales) in the area. The waters are calm and perfect for this adventure.
Maui Kayaks offer either tandem or single kayaks for this adventure. Because of the length of time, we recommend a tandem kayak.
All of Maui Kayaks tour guides are certified life guards who are also certified in CPR. Maui Kayak tours are limited to eight people for your safety. Maui Kayaks are the only kayak outfitter that has all State and County permits required by the state of Hawaii to operate in a National Marine Reserve. This outfitter provides a brief of the adventure before the tour begins as well as etiquette in the conservation of our natural resources.
This event is not recommended for expecting mothers and children under 8.
This event is tailored for the avid kayaker. The mission on this adventure is whale watching from a kayak. Close up and personal! There may be some snorkeling to break up the morning and take a breather from paddling.

Whale Tips
When is the best time to go whale watching? It doesn't matter as the whale has to surface for air every 30 minutes. We suggest the morning for whale watching because the waters are calmer and it's not as hot as it is in the afternoon.
All whale watches are guaranteed from December 15th through the season. The season ends on April 15th. This means that if you don't see a whale the charter company will give you another whale watch for free. This isn't likely to happen because there are over 700 Humpback Whales that call Maui their winter home every year. During the peak of the season you can see the whales from the shore, but it's hardly a whale watch. My favorite whale watches are when the boat is surrounded by whales and you just have to sit there until the whales feels he has had enough of people watching and departs.
Now that's cool!
Please remember that for the morning whale watches advance reservations are required. They do sell out daily.
