We did the 6 hour Lanai snorkel with Ulimate Rafting. We saw beautiful scenery including sea caves and did 3 snorkels with an optional cave exploration. Breakfast, lunch, and snacks were included. The boat ride was so exciting - very fast with quick turns and stopped on a dime. I can get motion sick easily, but had no problem on... more

My husband and I were looking for a smaller boat for our first whale watch and this was the best I could have ever hoped for! With in 5 minutes we saw a nice tail, 20 minutes later was 2 whales and a baby. By the end of the trip we had several huge out of water breeches. The captain... more

We have been out 4 times with Ultimate Whale Watch. Twice in 2008 and twice in 2009. We had a great experience each time. We saw lots of whales. Because the boat is small we were able to get out of the harbor faster than other boats and when the whales moved we did too. That means we were usually... more

It was my first whale watch. So I am not an expert to judge which company is better. However, I doubt that any other whale watching company will offer you more! We saw a whale fight with 5 to 6 whales, and two dolphins. - The dolphins were silly, they were hanging around for the show. - Because the boat... more

Great tour

My hubby and I chose this tour for the intamacy of it. Only 18 passengers compared to a boat filled with 100 to 150. The crew were very knowledgeable, friendly and seemed to really enjoy their job. A great experience and I highly recommend them. more

ultimate whale watch has to be the best whale watching boat in maui. My family and i return to maui each year during whale season and have to go on the ultimate boat. The boat is a zodiac style and only takes out about 16 or so people. This is what my family truly likes. No crowds. We are Whale... more
