Whale Watching Tour

Thursday afternoon will find the guests boarding a luxury motor coach to Maalaea Bay where we will board the 92 foot yacht, Prince Kuhio, for a two hour whale watching cruise. A naturalist from the Maui Ocean Center will be onboard to give up-to-date information about the Humpback whales and their migration habits in the Hawaiian waters. There is excellent whale watch viewing from the upper deck on the yacht. The last time the whale watching tour was offered, the whales were in top form demonstrating their unbelievable acrobatics for the lucky sailors! A no host bar of beer, wine and Mai Tais will also be available.
