Maui Sailing

Molokini Snorkel & Performance Sail

5 Hour sail for up to 25 passengers from Mā’alaea Harbor, Slip #72, Maui.

Molokini is one of Maui’s most incredible snorkeling destinations. The unique, crescent-shaped crater is a natural marine preserve, and is home to over 250 species of tropical fish.

Sail Maui combines the elements of performance sailing in the trade winds with snorkeling in the protected, crystal clear water at Molokini crater for a truly outstanding experience.

Midday Sail with the Whales

2 Hour sail for up to 25 passengers from Mā’alaea Harbor, Slip #72, Maui.

Maui is the place to see humpback whales. Each year these magnificent creatures migrate south from Alaska, and although you can see them throughout Hawai'i, the ‘Au ‘au channel off the coast of Maui boasts the greatest number.

Our warm, relatively shallow and protected waters make an ideal location for the humpbacks to mate and give birth to their calves. These whales are known for their acrobatics, and are often seen fully breaching out of the ocean!

‘Alihalani Sunset Sail

2 hour sunset sail for up to 45 passengers from Mā’alaea Harbor, Slip #72, Maui.

We will sail in the beautiful Au’Au inter-island channel, allowing for some incredible views of Maui while watching the sunset out at sea. Enjoy catering with appetizers and an open bar featuring local beer, white wine, sparkling wine, and assorted cocktails.

With abundant room to relax on the forward trampolines and comfortable seating both around and under our spacious cabin, we invite you to relax and enjoy the sounds of the sea as we turn off our motors and raise our sails.

We loved this trip! True sailing, amazing and hardworking crew and fantastic captain. We were really impressed by every minute. The boat, snorkeling, and sailing far exceeded our expectations. The service we received from reservations was also very helpful when we had a glitch. Thank you for helping us have an amazing experience.

★★★★★ Lette

We had such an incredible day on Sail Maui! They really know how to take the stress out of planning. The crew catered to our every need and provided exceptional service. Breakfast & lunch were terrific and the sailing was phenomenal! Molokini was spectacular, but I’m pretty sure anywhere this boat takes you would be. Can’t wait for our next sail!

★★★★★ Inspire

We had such a fantastic time on our Sunset Cruise! Beautiful catamaran, with only 14 guests. The captain and three crew members were all super friendly and excellent at their jobs! It was great fun sitting on the netting at the front of the ship and feeling the wind and ocean spray. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Maui!

★★★★★ David

Great experience which I’m sure will be one of the highlights of our vacation! The crew on Paragon (Cape Greg, Ben, and Sylvia) were amazing, friendly, attentive, and made us fell at home. I appreciate that we sailed out to Molokini Crater and back rather than motored. I saw other catamarans that never hoisted sail, what a missed experience.
