About This Adventure
About
Enjoy a peaceful, unobstructed view of a Hawaiian sunset aboard your own private yacht. We'll hoist the sails around 4pm and sail until the sun sets. The yacht is yours. Bring your significant other, family, or friends! Relax as we sail in the calm waters of Lahaina. The West Maui mountains really light up when the sun starts to go down - a view best seen from the water. This is also a great option for romantic proposals, ash scatterings, celebrations of life, and an opportunity to enjoy time on the water. Catering is not provided at this time but you are welcome to bring you own food and beverages with you. BYOB ok!
