Sailing is Maui showing off, and these are the catamaran trips I’d pick for snorkeling, whales, or plain wind in the sails. Several load right off the sand at Kaanapali Beach; you wade in, climb the ladder, and go. Afternoon departures catch true trade-wind sailing instead of motoring.
On a journey like no other, discover the ocean's secrets with Ma'alaea Harbor's Whale Watching Catamaran Cruise.
