Sail Wailea’s coast aboard a traditional Hawaiian outrigger canoe, with snorkeling, sea turtle sightings, and stories of island navigation.

About this tour

Set out from Polo Beach and see Wailea from the water aboard Ke Anuenue, a Hawaiian sailing outrigger canoe. This 2-hour Maui Hawaiian Canoe Sailing Experience pairs a coastal sail with snorkeling and a closer look at the island’s seafaring heritage.

After learning about traditional canoe construction and navigation, launch directly from the beach and sail with the Wailea breeze. Along the way, take time to snorkel and look for sea turtles; seasonal whale watching may also be possible. Bottled water and snorkeling equipment are provided. The experience offers a distinctive way to enjoy the coast while hearing about Hawaiian sailing traditions and culture.

Meet at Polo Beach, where the yellow canoe with a red sail is positioned north along the beach. A lockbox is available for belongings you prefer not to bring aboard. Choose this Maui Hawaiian Canoe Sailing Experience for an active, ocean-level perspective on Wailea and its maritime history.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.62 from 63 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Maui
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.2.
