Overview

Begin your morning with a chef-prepared buffet breakfast as we cruise to Molokini Crater, a world-renowned marine preserve home to over 400 species of tropical fish and coral reefs.

Your adventure continues with a second snorkel stop, chosen daily for the best conditions and marine life. In summer, that often means exploring Turtle Town, where Hawaiian green sea turtles rest and swim. In winter, we may shift course for whale watching, tracking Maui’s migrating humpback whales. This is our Deluxe tour for a reason—we go where the magic is.

Sip on Hawaiian mimosas, Aperol Spritz, and Maui Brewing Co. craft beers as you enjoy the ocean breeze and panoramic views. After a refreshing swim, indulge in a generous island-style buffet lunch served onboard.

To close the day, we raise the sails and catch the trade winds for an authentic open-ocean sailing experience before returning to the harbor.
