Capture Perfect Photos & Heartwarming Moments on an Enchanting Sunset Voyage
Experience a truly memorable evening with an enchanting sunset cruise combined with whale watching (Dec-Apr) off the shores of Maui on our Hawaiin-built catamaran “Winona.” This vessel is a cherished part of our community, known for its spacious comfort and warm Pacific hospitality. As you drift across the sparkling waters, unwind at our floating tiki bar, where you can enjoy Hawaiian pupus, locally brewed beers, tropical cocktails, and a variety of beverages—all served in a relaxed, open-air setting.
Join us on Winona to honor the resilience and enduring spirit of Maui. Our vessel bravely survived the Lahaina fires and is now stationed at Ma’alaea Harbor. Our passionate crew and captain look forward to sharing inspiring stories of hope and strength as we sail through the clear waters of the Pacific. Keep your camera ready for breathtaking photo opportunities and chances to encounter playful spinner dolphins, majestic whales, and other fascinating marine life.
Booking this trip isn’t just about the memories you’ll make—it’s also about supporting a local small business. Your participation helps us keep the vessel active and contributes to the community’s recovery. Come aboard and be part of something special, ending your day on Maui with stories to tell and smiles all around.
