Private Maui Ocean Tours

Looking for the perfect Maui excursion for your large group? A private Maui cruise excursion may be the perfect experience to bump up your vacation from good to great, especially if you are traveling with a large group of family members, friends or business associates.

Our private ocean tours put our forty years of experience to excellent use bringing you just the kind of outing you're looking for. Whether it's a soothing sunset dinner cruise or an adventurous snorkeling excursion, we at the Hawaii Ocean Project can make it happen in an amazing way.

Aside from the benefit of our stellar boat crews and the expertise they provide, we also have a large fleet of boats to choose from. The Island Princess, Maui Princess, Kaulana, Lahaina Princess and Molokai Princess each bring something special to the experience, and we can accommodate your needs regardless of your party's size.

Some of the types of private outings we normally provide are morning snorkel trips, Maui sunset cruises, wedding receptions, corporate parties and private whale watch cruises when the whales are here during their winter/spring migratory season. If you have something else in mind, contact us and we'll collaborate with you on what we can provide.

Of course, we do everything we can to ensure that your excursions with us are unforgettable, no matter what kind of outing it is. That being said, nothing is quite like the privacy of your own tour, specially tailored to meet the unique needs of you and your party. We hope to take you out on a private Maui tour sometime in the future. If you have any questions about our tours, you'll find our contact information at the bottom of the page. Mahalo!

Hawaii Ocean Project Newsletter

If you had an amazing time on one of our Maui ocean cruise excursions, or you want to join us in the future, our newsletter might interest you. Signing up for the newsletter is a great way to get the big highlights on what we're up to in paradise, and it's especially handy if you don't get a chance to read this blog too often!

When you sign up, you'll find that our newsletters are brief and to the point, so it's ideal for those of you who don't have time to read through much material. They also come out sporadically, depending on how often we have something we really want to share. They are infrequent, too, with months passing between them at times. The best part is what we include in the newsletters.

Every so often, we'll have a special announcement or a deal we're offering, and we put it in the newsletter. For example, our New Year's newsletter featured a special 7 Trip Pass deal that was available at our information booth located at the Lahaina Harbor. We'll also share information on upcoming events that we're a part of, along with news about our tours and various services, like the Molokai Ferry.

If you'd like to check out our past newsletters yourself, click the Hawaiian Ocean Project Newsletter link and you'll see entries from past months. If you're interested in signing up, you'll find a form to the left of the page. All we ask for is a name and email address to send them to.

We hope you find our newsletter content fun, interesting and helpful. If you're going to be visiting Maui in the future, you might find some of our announcements useful as you plan your activities. In the meantime, we hope you can check on our blog for activity ideas as well. If you need assistance booking your excursions with us, you'll find our contact information at the bottom of the page. Mahalo!

Molokai Ferry Online Booking

If you've been keeping up to date with the news on Maui, or our blog, then you're probably pretty familiar with the current challenges surrounding the Molokai Ferry. We're happy to say that the community support has been tremendous in helping shift the ferry to operation on an as-needed basis to avoid bankruptcy. The march to success is ongoing, but for now, we'd like to highlight our Molokai Ferry online booking.

These days, people rely on the internet more than ever as they plan out their daily lives. In fact, a lot of people can't even remember how life worked without it. Whether you're a Maui resident or vacationer who wants to island hop to Molokai, we're hoping our online booking system helps to make your experience as convenient as possible.

One of the reasons for using our online booking system is that it's cheaper than other options. We've also made the booking system simple to use. First, you'll go to our Molokai Ferry Online Booking page, and then you'll choose between the three options shown. We offer round trip, one-way to Maui, and one-way to Molokai options. Each is represented visually for ease of use. Once you make your selection, you can look at the availability we have for the trip of your choice, and then make your reservations.

We hope you'll take a trip on the Molokai Ferry, no matter how you book it. The journey is exhilarating, the views are stunning, and bringing luggage is more convenient than it is on a plane. The ferry has been serving the community since 1987, and it provides a unique opportunity to get between these islands.

If you're interested in the progress of the ferry's efforts to switch to providing trips on an as-needed basis, check back on our blog every Friday. We'll provide updates when there is something to report. Hopefully, the ferry will be allowed to provide its service on a reasonable basis, and continue to make travel between Maui and Molokai easier. Mahalo for reading this week!
