Description

Alihilani, meaning "where the heavenly horizon meets the sea," sets the tone for one of Maui's most memorable sunset sails. The two-hour Alihilani Sunset Sail departs from Maalaea Harbor and cruises through the scenic Au'au Channel, framed by Lanai, Kahoolawe, and West Maui mountain views. Once the sails are raised and the motors turned off, the ocean breeze takes over for a peaceful, picture-perfect ride.

Sail Maui's 65-foot luxury catamaran offers plenty of room to relax—whether you're lounging on the forward trampolines, settling into cushioned seating, or stretching out under the shaded 575-square-foot cabin area.

Enjoy a rotating spread of hot and cold appetizers along with a premium open bar featuring locally brewed beers, white wine, sparkling wine, handcrafted island cocktails, and signature Mai Tais. It's an easygoing, all-inclusive evening—ideal for couples, solo travelers, or groups.

During whale season (December to March), keep an eye out for breaching humpback whales, here to breed and give birth in Maui's warm, shallow waters. Whether you're here for the views, the vibes, or the marine life, this is a can't-miss addition to your island itinerary.
