  • "Best Snorkeling Trip Ever!"   Reviewed March 21, 2013   We booked a 1/2 day snorkeling trip which ended up also being a whale watching adventure!! We saw so many whales we lost count... Jeff and Sean made the trip both fun and educational. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone going to Maui- you will not be disappointed.

  • “Fantastic Whale Watch!” Reviewed March 22, 2013 We had a fantastic whale watch with Hawaii Ocean Rafting. Tom and Povi were informative and fun. With their smaller inflatable vessel that holds a maximum of 18 guests, everyone has a "front row" seat. We were able to see a mom and escort both breach about 50 feet from our boat. The whales then did a few more smaller...

    If you are looking for awesome whale watching in Maui, go to slip 8 in Lahaina Harbor. Wow! Thanks to Sean, Tom, Povi & Leanna(?) I must have been on the same boat as Neil S. I think there must have been a naked whale painted on the bottom of our boat, because this humpback wouldn't leave us alone! Exceeded our expectations by a mile. I would have paid several hundred dollars for this experience that only cost $40ish. We went out with this company 3 of the 6 days we were in Maui.

    If you are gonna go on a whale watch, go with hawaii ocean rafting. Prices are much lower than other rafts, and the personal touch and expert captains and naturalists are the best in the business! This is our second year to use them, and we have has our most memorable whale watches with them. Povi and Tom were awesome!!!!

    My family usually goes to Big Island but came to Maui this winter so we can see the whales. Hawaii Ocean Rafting was the third outfit we tried this week, and by far the best.
