Superb whale experience

Wonderful exciting cruise. Saw 8-9 very active humpback whales. Captain Emma was super knowledgable about the whale behaviors and fun to listen to. Mate Lainie was also a great resource. Amazing late season whale watch with a small group. Would repeat in a heartbeat

Unforgettable experience!

An absolutely unforgettable whale watching experience! The biggest advantage of this tour was the small boat with only a few guests on board, which made it easy to move around freely, find the best views, and capture amazing videos of the whales. Even though we were visiting slightly after the peak season, the captain managed to locate a large group of whales - including males competing for a female, which was truly incredible to witness. The crew was exceptionally kind and welcoming, and their extensive knowledge about whales made the whole experience even more engaging and informative. It was truly a unique and breathtaking adventure - I would happily go on this whale watching tour again!

Professional, Amazing WHALE WATCH from MALA harbor

I reached out to Capt Chrissy about a group of friends that were interested in going on a whale watch. Let me tell you, she delivered! We love a sunrise whale watch, there is something about leaving the Mala dock and watching the sun rise over the Maui mountains... We cruised about 10 mins and found a pod of whales. The Captain and her deckhand Alison were amazing. This crew knew all about the humpback whales. They educated us on the breeding grounds, the fresh babies that were playing in the water and more. We spent 2 hours watching whales play. It is remarkable to think these gentle giants are just 30-40 feet beneath the surface and we are hanging out watching them play. Lilikoi, the golden made our trip that much more special. We had 16 of us on the boat that day. We learned, we gasped and we cheered! Fast forward to Sunday and 15 of us joined again for a whale watch with James and his amazing kind naturalist! (pls forgive me for not remembering her name) They are the most amazing photographers and taught us all about "chasing whale tails." we found a Russian mom whale and her baby. We learned about his history from this team. We also lost count of baby breaches. It was remarkable. James took us out and we "parked" and watched this group of whales just play. They slapped, dove, gently swam near the surface and the baby played. Again this sunset cruise was remarkable, there were full breaches, tails, splashes and just the peace of the vastness of the ocean. This was a special trip for our friends/family. Our friend passed away shortly after our tour last year. We felt her presence on these tours. Her family joined us to see what she saw and as the sun shined, and the whales played we felt peace. Thank you to Capt Chrissy, and her amazing crew for providing such a great tour. We highly recommend this company. They are safe, top notch, professional, kind and really understand the ocean and the respect of the whales. See you again friends. Aloha
