Kaanapali Deluxe Sunset Sail

Maui Romantic Sunset Cruise

Trilogy – Kaanapali Deluxe Sunset Sail

$ 115.00 BOOK NOW

Sail into the Kaanapali Sunset with Trilogy Excursions

Trilogy Excursions has been sailing the coast of Maui and Lanai since 1973 and the Trilogy Kaanapali Deluxe Sunset Sail is their marquee trip. They are the longest-running sailing charter on Maui and that’s because they do it right. The Trilogy Kaanapali Deluxe Sunset Sail is a perfectly imagined evening sailing off the coast of Kaanapali enjoying the famous Maui sunsets. Food and drinks are included and have been carefully considered as well. On a brilliant evening, the colors of the sky will reflect on the water, bringing to life a sea of colors. Sunsets on Maui are truly magical – and from a boat on the Pacific Ocean – they are absolutely EPIC!

Trilogy is owned by the Coon Family. They have shaped Maui sea activities into what it represents today. Since founded, Trilogy has expanded its offering to include just about everything you can imagine. From whale watches, Lanai and Molokini snorkeling , and Maui sunset cruises , Trilogy has an adventure for everyone. Trilogy has the largest fleet of sailing catamarans on Maui, each one represents their name – excellence.

Trilogy Excursions regularly gives back to our local Maui County community. Each year they sponsor events on Lanai and Maui for the less fortunate and ocean clean up. Through the years they have demonstrated a standard of excellence that few other companies can live up to.

During the whale-watching season, Trilogy will lower its sails to provide a Maui whale-watching tour for its passengers. The whale watching season on Maui runs from December 15th to April 15th. It’s a treat to be out on the water during sunset and have a whale watch at the same time. The photos are priceless!

Our agents on Front Stree in Lahaina regularly schedule Trilogy’s sunset sail. Our guests always seem to enjoy it. After experiencing a Maui sunset sail with Trilogy Excursions ourselves, we would have to agree with them!

THE REEFS OF WEST MAUI

The bays of Honoapi’ilani offer some of the best snorkeling on Maui! Our Captain will choose the preferred snorkeling destination for that day, (most often Honolua Bay), which allows our guests to truly enjoy the most ideal conditions & visibility that West Maui has to offer. You might find yourself swimming among the fish and  honu  (Hawaiian sea turtle) in the coves of Honolua, enjoying the crystal clear waters at Cliff House, or even snorkeling the expansive Olowalu reef – Maui’s “mother reef”!

* Most common in the Winter months, a North swell can cause large surf at Honolua and Slaughterhouse. On “big surf” days our Captain’s will choose the best and safest snorkeling site for the group;  2 snorkel locations are not guaranteed on days with high surf

SNUBA UPGRADE

For an up close & personal look at Maui’s marine wildlife, we also offer an optional SNUBA upgrade for any guest 8yrs and older (space is limited). SNUBA is a safe and exciting way to explore Maui’s underwater ecosystem, allowing you to breathe underwater through a mouthpiece and an air hose that is connected to a tank sitting in a raft on the surface. Connected through a light harness, you can then dive down up to 20 feet and enjoy up-close-and-personal views of our amazing reef and marine life! Click here to learn more about SNUBA. Please contact [email protected] for availability of SNUBA on our Discover Molokini and Discover Lana’i tours.

Teralani Snorkel Sail charters offers daily tours that depart directly from Kaanapali Beach on one of their beautiful 65' x 35' sailing catamarans with a covered salon and bar, indoor and outdoor seating, two spacious restrooms and fresh water showers. The tours are limited to 49 persons (although the capacity is 125)...so there is plenty of room to stretch out and relax.

Your experience begins with barefoot beach loading from Kaanapali Beach. You will likely get your feet wet ... depending on the surf maybe ankle deep or even knee deep water as you appoach the boarding steps located between the hulls of the catamaran. As the boat departs you will enjoy breakfast -- Maui Mango Muffins, Breakfast Burritos, coffee and juices.

The experienced captains will take you to the best snorkeling spots (locations vary depending on weather and sea conditions and the time of year). Kaanapali's best-featured snorkel trip takes you to two different sites per trip. Destinations typically include Honolua Bay in the summer months and Olowalu in the winter months. The captain chooses the spots based upon ocean conditions and the best snorkeling visibility. While you explore the amazing underwater world, the friendly crew prepares your lunch and the tour turns to pure relaxation. Lunch menu is Shredded Chipotle Chicken in Pita Bread, Vegan Pita Wraps, All Beef Hotdogs (with condiments), potato chips, gourmet chocolate chip cookies and a full open bar including beer, wine, mai tais, etc after snorkeling. The bar opens and you sit back and enjoy the views as you sail back along the scenic west Maui coast to Ka'anapali.

Kevin at Falls

Teralani has a fleet of THREE beautiful sailing catamarans that are all 65' in length. Teralani III was built in 2005 and is meticulously maintained. Teralani IV (built in 2019) and Teralani V (built in 2020) are among the newest boats on the island. All offer a quality premium snorkeling experience on Maui's west side. Capacity on these boats is 49, which is less than half of the people you'll find on most of the Molokini snorkel tours. People also appreciate the mid-morning check-in times ... this is a good choice for people who don't want to get up at 6am every day on their vacation. In the summer the primary destination is typically Honolua Bay, a FANTASTIC spot to snorkel and a difficult spot to reach if you don't go on a boat. Some of the best coral in Hawaii is found here, and lots of fish and turtles. In the wintertime Honolua Bay isn't available as a snorkel destination ... winter swells make Honolua Bay a surfer's paradise but those waves make snorkeling impossible. In the wintertime the destination is the south shore of the West Maui Mountains ... the added bonus during this time of year is the numerous whale sightings on the way. There is some excellent reef about half a mile offshore from Olowalu, and while this is a popular place to snorkel from shore, it is too far out to swim to the really good reef where Teralani snorkels.

Teralani boats pull right up onto Kaanapali Beach for boarding ... you take your shoes off and walk across the sand to get on the boat. You will likely get your feet wet as the first step onboard will either be on wet sand or in a few inches of water (you could even get splashed up to your knees if a wave hits while you are boarding). Occasionally we have someone who just can't load this way ... if that's the case consider doing a Lanai trip with Paragon Sailing instead which loads from the main loading dock of Lahaina Harbor.

When you come on a trip with us we promise to do everything in our power to make sure you have the time of your life out on the water.

Discover the Sea Maui Difference: Read Our Maui Snorkeling, Whale Watching and Sunset Cruise Reviews

sea maui anchor logo

Just returned from Maui. Family and I did a Friday night sunset cruise. Highly recommend this trip. Capt. Phil and crew are top notch. They work hard to make sure you have fun. Great food and drink, whale watching and great views. The crew was very careful loading and unloading passengers at the start and end of the trip. Overall a great time. If you want to sail with a competent and caring crew, then Sea Maui is the place to be.

This was my third catamaran snorkel trip and it was the best one yet! First and foremost the staff was amazing. Throughout the trip the entire crew stayed engaged in conversation, and not just with one person. Hands down best part of my week stay here in Maui! Lunch was fantastic-drinks were flowing-& we made it back in a timely manner! Thank you so much to the crew of Sea Maui for being the best part of my vacation!

I had the joy of going on a Sea Maui trip. The boat was large and the vibe the crew had was amazing. They served us breakfast and lunch with a smile, had great drinks and music, and made us laugh the whole time. I chose to do SNUBA, and it was worth every extra penny. If I went back today, I would use Sea Maui and I recommend them to all of my friends who are going.

The crew and management at Sea Maui always go above and beyond to make sure their patrons have the best experience possible. They serve good food and drinks and have a smaller amount of people they go out with and they offer something for everyone. They are def my go to when I’m looking to get out in the beautiful waters of Maui.

Our family had the best time on our snorkeling tour with Kevin and Jacob today! We were lucky and stayed on the beach the boat launches from. Kevin and James were very knowledgeable of Maui island, personable, extremely hospitable and we felt like we were spending the day with good friends. They gave our tour group the VIP treatment, always offering fresh fruit, cold drinks and answered all of our questions. The snorkeling was amazing!! My kids even saw a shark! The reef, fish, sea turtles were so much better to see in the deep ocean! Kevin and Jacob went above and beyond and treated us so well!! I HIGHLY recommend Kaanapali Ocean Adventures! Great for beginners or experienced snorkeled. They even helped my 12 yr old son overcome his fear and snorkel with us. It’s an experience our family will never forget! Mahalo!

The insane jet boat ride is an absolute must. We had the best time on this trip. We didn't want it to end. Started the ride alongside a pod of spinner dolphins. I had never been so close to dolphins in my life and there were over a hundred of them surrounding the boat and jumping in the air. The boat goes very fast and it's a great ride for thrill seekers. You will get soaked and expect saltwater to hit your face. It's not for the faint of heart. Dave also made the trip informative and taught us a lot of new information about Hawaii. It's a fun ride and a good family activity. Kids that love amusement parks would love this ride.

Kaanapali Ocean Adventures is THE BEST! My husband and I planned a family trip to Maui and wanted to plan one group excursion. From the first phone call to KOA, I knew our snorkeling outing to Lanai was going to be fun. From the moment our party of 9 arrived on the beach at Kaanapali and boarded the vessel, until the moment we returned to shore, we experienced one of the best outings of our lives! Spinner dolphins and out-of this world snorkeling in the clearest water ever! And to top it off, capt Dan found a mama whale and her calf for us to enjoy. Unbelievable. Best trip ever!

My family and I had SO MUCH fun on this excursion, and the guides were very friendly and insightful from beginning to end (despite the amount of rowdy children that accompanied us on the boat). They provided reef-safe sunscreen, snacks, drinks, music, and snorkeling gear to everybody which I also thought was nice. Out on the water I saw AT LEAST 5 sea turtles, a needle fish, and SO MANY COLORFUL FISH swimming around! Even if I didn't see as much of the marine life as I did, I would still rate this trip a 10/10 because of how organized, professional, and welcoming everyone was. Would definitely recommend!!

I have been on three adventures with Captain Dan and the crew at Kaanapali Ocean Adventures. Each time was memorable and different. This last time the captain made a game day decision to take us to Molokai because of the outstanding weather. It was truly a once in a lifetime magical experience! I appreciate the flexibility the captain brings to the experience. He does what he thinks will provide the best experience for his guests depending on the weather and conditions. The boat is no frills but the captain and his crew are incredibly experienced, kind and fun. I can’t wait for my next captain Dan ocean adventure.

Kaanapali Ocean Adventure with Captain Dan and his crew, Marisa, was an unforgettable experience! We met them at 7 AM at Whalers Cove, and they took my family of 10 out for the adventure of a lifetime. Captain Dan went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience, even searching for the clearest water for snorkeling. We were new to snorkeling, and it was absolutely mind-blowing! We were also lucky enough to spot a small pod of spinner dolphins, and Captain Dan took extra time to follow them, making sure everyone had a chance to see. My family members said it was the highlight of our entire trip to Maui.

What really impressed us was that they were planning to dry dock the boat but were willing to take it out on late notice to accommodate our family’s vacation timeline. Marisa was incredible in the water, diving down to point out amazing fish, swimming ahead to navigate, and guiding the ‘extra adventurous’ ones in our group back to safer waters. Captain Dan and Marisa also provided fresh fruit, donuts, croissants, and drinks (BYOB 😜). The ride was smooth, the scenery stunning, and the whole experience was epic. I would 10/10 recommend, and we will definitely be back! Thank you, Captain Dan and team!

Two Firefighters Injured In Fire At Brown's Point Marina

Two firefighters were injured and three boats were destroyed after an explosion at a marina in Keyport, officials said.

A fire at Brown's Point Marina in Keyport, NJ, on September 9, 2024.

Brown's Point Marina in Keyport, NJ.

beached sailboat kaanapali

The first call for the fire at Brown's Point Marina came in just after 3 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 9, a Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office spokesperson said. One firefighter was brought to a hospital with minor injuries and released, while the other was treated at the scene.

The U.S. Coast Guard, New York City Fire Department (FDNY), the New Jersey State Police's marine unit, and several fire departments also responded. The pier suffered minor damage and the scene was cleared by around 6:30 p.m.

According to its website, Brown's Point Marina is a full-service boat storage facility on West Front Street that was renovated in 2021. The marina on the Raritan Bay is about a quarter-mile west of Keyport Waterfront Park.

This was the third fire at a New Jersey marina in less than three weeks. Four marina employees suffered smoke inhalation after flames broke out on a roughly 42-foot boat in Wildwood on Thursday, Aug. 22.

Two people were injured during a boat explosion at Raritan Marina in the Laurence Harbor section of Old Bridge on Wednesday, Aug. 28. A 57-year-old man from Old Bridge was airlifted with burns to his face and legs after the explosion launched him into the water.

The investigation was ongoing but the fire didn't appear to be suspicious, the prosecutor's office spokesperson said.

USS Albuquerque to Set Sail for Tingley Beach

The City along with the U.S. Navy, the Navy League New Mexico Council, and other partners unveiled a draft concept plan for a USS Albuquerque memorial to kick off Navy Week in Albuquerque. Named after the city, the USS Albuquerque is a nuclear submarine decommissioned in 2017. The sail from the USS vessel, which is currently in three pieces, was recently moved from storage at Kirtland Air Force Base to Pascetti Steel, where it will be restored and prepared for reassembly. The City has developed a draft concept plan to build the USS Albuquerque memorial at Tingley Beach. “My piece of this was commanding Albuquerque from 2002 to 2005,” said Admiral Stuart Munsch . “We were known back then for our competency, innovation, and our toughness and I’d like to think that we took that from the character of the City, here in Albuquerque.” The draft concept plan for the USS Albuquerque memorial, prepared by PLAND Collaborative, proposes to install the sail in the western-most pond at Tingley Beach.  The sail will be framed with bow and stern (rudder) indicators to depict the full length of the sub, and a simulated bow wave will create action/movement. The site plan also includes plazas that will depict the sub’s service in the five oceans of the world, educational exhibits, parking lot improvements, and a restroom. The estimated cost of the entire project is $5.4 million. “It’s a fitting that Albuquerque will be the final harbor for this historic sub, with a memorial honoring this vessel and the crews who sailed in its 34 years of service,” said Mayor Tim Keller . “This project has been years in the making and is a testament to this city’s commitment to honoring our veterans and preserving our history for future generations.” “As the 47th state, landlocked with no navigable water path to the ocean, it is pretty cool that New Mexico has such a robust representation with US Naval history, almost thirty naval ships, boats, and tugs have linkage to our state,” said Historian and Navy League of the US New Mexico Council member Greg Trapp . “It is appropriate for the City of Albuquerque to showcase New Mexico's continued devotion to the US Navy by creating the USS Albuquerque Memorial, with the USS Albuquerque sail as the centerpiece.” The Navy League New Mexico Council will be showing off their scale model of the USS Albuquerque and exhibiting the draft site concept plan at the New Mexico State Fair this week. The metal restoration work on the sail by Pascetti Steel will take several months. Over the next few weeks, the City will solicit public input on the draft concept plan, which will include meetings with nearby neighborhoods and other stakeholders. The public can contribute to the USS Albuquerque memorial project by making a donation at: onealbuquerquefund.org . The public can also submit feedback. For more information on the project, see: ussalbuquerque.org

Construction to start on $12.5 million Boat Harbour Beach area revitalisation

beached sailboat kaanapali

Two major infrastructure projects worth a combined $17.5 million are set to get the green light from the Waratah-Wynyard Council in its upcoming September meeting.

The projects include the long-awaited redevelopment of Boat Harbour Beach and the first steps towards a new childcare facility in Wynyard.

The Boat Harbour Beach Master Plan, first adopted in 2019 after extensive community consultation, will soon enter the construction phase.

The $12.5 million project will deliver a modern community facility featuring new club rooms and operational spaces for the Surf Life Saving Club, a café and upgraded public amenities.

beached sailboat kaanapali

It will also see improvements to roads, car parking and the foreshore, creating landscaped areas and play spaces.

Mayor Mary Duniam said the redevelopment is an important milestone for the region.

beached sailboat kaanapali

“This is one of our flagship projects for the year and it will transform this iconic part of our community,” she said.

“The new Surf Life Saving Club, café and enhanced public spaces will not only improve amenities for local residents and visitors but will also provide a place where community groups can continue to thrive.”

Construction is set to begin this summer and is hoped to be completed by mid-March 2026.

In Wynyard, the council will move forward and award a tender for design and permits for a new childcare facility.

beached sailboat kaanapali

The new centre will replace the existing Warawyn Childcare Centre and incorporate outside school hours care services at a single location on George/Gibbons Street.

It will initially accommodate 80 children, with room for future expansion to 120 places.

beached sailboat kaanapali

Mayor Duniam said access to quality childcare is crucial for working families and the new facility will help meet the growing demand in the community.

“It will also create new job opportunities, with at least six additional full-time positions to be filled,” she said.

“This project will not only benefit local families but will also support the wider economy by enabling parents to return to the workforce when they’re ready.”

The facility will be part of the Wynyard Education Precinct, located near Table Cape Primary School and Wynyard High School.

Design and permits are expected to be achieved in the 2024/25 financial year with construction expected to commence in late 2025.
