Frequently Asked Questions

Where do I check in?

Check-In Location: Check in at our main “Sea Maui” kiosk located directly on the beach walk path at the Whalers Village Shopping Center (2435 Ka’anapali Pkwy, Lahaina, HI). We are positioned right between Leilani’s on the Beach and Hula Grill.

Here is a link to our location on GOOGLE MAPS.

What is a “Beach Loading Catamaran”?

A beach loading catamaran means our vessels load directly from the sands of Ka’anapali Beach rather than a concrete dock or a harbor. To board, you will walk across the wet sand and step into the ocean a few paces before climbing onto our custom dropdown staircase. Because of this unique and exciting boarding style, we do not recommend our trips for individuals with mobility issues or anyone who has trouble walking completely unassisted. The vessel is entirely inaccessible to wheelchairs.

When is the best time to see whales?

While Humpback Whales are consistently active throughout our entire winter season, January, February, and March are the peak months for sightings.

  • Morning vs. Afternoon: Early morning trips typically offer the absolute calmest ocean conditions, making it easier to spot blows and dorsal fins on the horizon. Afternoon trips can be a bit breezier but often see highly energetic whale behavior. Every whale watch tour is guided by certified marine naturalists!
What if I need to cancel my reservation?
  • Standard Public Tours: We require a minimum of 48 hours notice prior to your scheduled trip time to issue a 100% full refund. You must call us directly at (808) SEA-MAUI to process a cancellation. Cancellations, changes, or “no-shows” inside the 48-hour window are strictly non-refundable.
  • Private Charters & Holidays: Private charter bookings and special holiday events (such as 4th of July or New Year’s Eve sails) require a strict 7 days notice to receive a refund.
  • Third-Party Tickets: If you purchased your tickets through a third-party activity desk, travel agent, or online vendor, their specific refund restrictions apply, and you must contact them directly to handle financial changes.
Is there parking nearby?

Parking Logistics: If you are driving, park inside the main Whalers Village parking structure. We provide up to 4 hours of free parking validation! Simply bring your physical parking ticket to our check-in kiosk before your trip departs so we can stamp it. 🚙🎫

Important Note: We do not have the ability to validate parking tickets at our kiosk after our late-evening sunset trips return, so please ensure you present your ticket to our staff before boarding the boat. Guests are responsible for any parking fees accrued past the 4-hour mark.
