Itinerary
Welcome aboard our Charming Hawaiian Catamaran "Winona". You are in for a treat as you experience the excitement of whale watching.
Our boat is a barefoot vessel. We kindly ask that you wear footwear that’s easy to slip off, or simply go barefoot while on board.
Each year, from December through March, hundreds of migrating humpback whales journey from chilly Alaska to the warm waters of Maui to breed and give birth. Our guests can get a close-up view of the majestic marine mammals on this tour. These whales play, breach, and interact in their natural environment, and our crew provides insights into their behavior and biology. Hear their soulful songs through our underwater hydrophones while enjoying the perfect view of West Maui's mountains, Molokai, and Lanai, while you lounge on our decks or main floor.
