Gemini Charters is ideal for tourists who want variety and value while enjoying their favorite Maui activities. The company offers practically every Maui activity in the book, from whale watching and snorkeling to romantic luxury sunset sails. Their flagship vessel is Gemini, an imposing 64-foot catamaran departing daily from Ka`anapali beach, and their key destinations are simply breathtaking.

Gemini’s tours vary according to season, so be sure to check out their activity calendar before reserving. In the summer, they take advantage of the strong trade wind and offer sailing cruises throughout the season. The best time to go is late afternoon, as you can catch the romantic Maui sunset with great views of Lanai and Molokai islands in the background. They even cap it off with classy cocktail drinks on the ship’s deck!

Summer is also the season for snorkeling. Gemini’s primary snorkeling destination is the Marine Preserve at Honolua Bay, one of the main attractions of West Maui. If you want to go somewhere less crowded, they can also take you to alternative snorkel spots-some of the most requested are Lanai, Olowalu, and Cliff-house. Just make sure to clear your schedule, as some alternative sites are a good distance from the shore.

Winter tours are all about whale watching. This season is when the whales migrate from the cold waters of Alaska to the comfortably warm Pacific. Gemini employs professional marine naturalists who share interesting facts about these creatures as you watch them play in the water. You can even listen to whale songs on hydrophone-it’s nature’s music at its best!
