About this tour
Maui’s sunset is unforgettable from shore, but the view feels even more special from a front-row seat on the water. Set sail from Ka’anapali Beach aboard this 2-hour Maui sunset cruise, where golden light, ocean air, and an open bar set the scene for an easygoing evening.
Enjoy unlimited alcoholic drinks and non-alcoholic beverages alongside a spread of heavy appetizers, including crispy pork sliders, pesto pasta salad, Asian slaw, and fried chicken with chili garlic aioli. Live music adds to the atmosphere on Tuesdays and Thursdays. From December 15 to April 15, whale watching is included, offering the chance to spot whales during the seasonal cruise.
Check in at the Sea Maui kiosk at Whalers Village 30 minutes before departure. This is a barefoot sail, so shoes are collected before boarding and returned at the end. Parking for up to 4 hours can be validated at check-in. Choose this Maui sunset cruise for a relaxed evening of coastal views, good food, and drinks on the water.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.84 from 1,591 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 7.6. Top 42% in Maui means it ranks in the top 42% of tours in Maui by this score.
