Olowalu Whale Watch, Kayak & Snorkel

On the morning of your tour, we will meet at the designated location at Olowalu. After a quick intro, we will get you set up with a life jacket, paddle, kayak, snorkel, mask, fins, and dry bag. Before we hit the water, we'll start with a brief on-land tutorial which will take you through the basics of kayaking, some pointers on paddling technique, rules and regulations and a rough plan of our itinerary for the morning. We should be heading into the water around 7:45 am. We'll jump into our kayaks and push out into the ocean. During this season, North Pacific humpback whales are visiting Maui's waters to mate and give birth. We'll paddle straight out into the channel where we will have plenty of time to cruise and look for whales. Then we will paddle to an excellent snorkeling spot where we drop anchor nearby and tie all the kayaks together so we can have a quick chat about what to expect on the snorkel tour. Then its masks on, fins on, and into the water for your guided snorkel safari! After your snorkel, we'll jump back into the kayaks for a group debrief and a snack of delicious fresh Hawaiian pineapple. Then, we'll paddle back to the start point where your tour will conclude.
