Sail Maui

The crew consistently gets glowing praise across these trips, with guests calling out captains like Brandon and Kevin, along with their teams, for being friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to be around. People appreciate how attentive everyone is, from helping with dietary restrictions to making sure kids and nervous swimmers feel comfortable. The vibe on board is relaxed rather than rushed, which makes a big difference when you're trying to actually enjoy the experience instead of feeling herded around. Whale watching seems to be a major highlight, with many mentioning multiple sightings and even breaches. The snorkeling at Molokini Crater gets equally strong reviews, and guests love that the food and drinks are actually good—think breakfast sandwiches and cinnamon rolls in the morning, then chicken wraps and an open bar later. Several people mention this was their favorite excursion of their entire Maui trip. A few noted the dock can be tricky to find, but once you're on board, the experience delivers. Sunset sails and snorkel trips both come highly recommended by repeat visitors who keep coming back.
