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

Adventure with the BEST Diving Center in Puerto Rico ★★★★★
This was our first experience with diving and the crew was awesome. They made us feel comfortable and really looked out for us. Louis was super patient and an excellent instructor. Tou can tell he loved what he is doing. In fact, we can not thank the entire crew enough. Excellent experience hope to go agin.
I was very impressed by the professionalism and attentiveness that this dive shop provided. All of the equipment was in great condition and the staff worked really well together. You could tell they all loved their jobs and this showed in their enthusiasm in showing us their under water environment. We will definitely dive with them again.
I have only good things to say about this operation. After one of our family members had a medical emergency, they reacted quickly and professionally to help her. They turned the boat around and contacted medical help. Luckily, our family member was fine and we felt these folks really took care of us. I would highly recommend them.
Just completed a 2 tank dive with this fine operation. As a medical professional in the dive industry, i appreciated their attention to detail during safety bries, pre-dive briefs, equipment checks etc. Luis and staff were effective communicators and set up an experience that was incredible. Highly recommend. Thank you, Medical Director for MTAC

Welcome aboard Sea Goddess Adventures!
Who would have predicted two years ago that a couple in their 60’s would trade a comfortable land based life for the uncertainty and challenge of permanently living aboard a boat? Certainly not us!
But first we would travel to France to pick up our new catamaran, Sea Goddess , and spend a tad over five months sailing her back home to Australia. Our journey began in Les Sables-d’Olonne (France), then onto A Coruna (Spain), Santa Cruz (Canary Islands), Mindelo (Cape Verde), La Marin (Martinique), Colon and Panama City (Panama), Santa Cruz (Galapagos), Papeete (Tahiti), Rarotonga (Cook Islands), Noumea (New Caledonia) and finally Brisbane Australia. In total around 14,500 nautical miles traversing the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Pacific Ocean and Coral Sea. A huge achievement and an amazing adventure.
Our story, past, present and future, unfolds throughout the pages of this website. In this way we hope to inform you and inspire you to start your own adventure whatever it may be.

The Ultimate Guide to Choosing Between a Sailboat or Catamaran for Your Sailing Adventures
C hoosing between a sailboat and a catamaran for your sailing adventures is a significant decision that depends on various factors, including your sailing preferences, experience level, budget, and intended use. Here's an ultimate guide to help you make an informed decision:
1. Sailing Experience:
- Sailboats: Typically require more skill and experience to handle, especially in adverse weather conditions. Ideal for sailors who enjoy the traditional feel of sailing and are willing to invest time in learning and mastering the art.
- Catamarans: Easier to handle, making them suitable for beginners. The dual-hull design provides stability, reducing the learning curve for those new to sailing.
2. Space and Comfort:
- Sailboats: Generally have a narrower beam and less living space. However, some sailboats may offer comfortable cabins and amenities.
- Catamarans: Wider beam creates more living space. Catamarans often have multiple cabins, spacious saloons, and expansive deck areas, providing a more comfortable living experience.
3. Stability:
- Sailboats: Monohulls can heel (lean) while sailing, which some sailors enjoy for the thrill but can be discomforting for others.
- Catamarans: Greater stability due to the dual hulls, providing a more level sailing experience. Reduced heeling makes catamarans suitable for those prone to seasickness.
4. Performance:
- Sailboats: Known for their upwind performance and ability to sail close to the wind. Some sailors appreciate the challenge of optimizing sail trim for efficiency.
- Catamarans: Faster on a reach and downwind due to their wide beam. However, they may not point as high into the wind as monohulls.
- Sailboats: Typically have a deeper draft, limiting access to shallow anchorages and requiring deeper marina berths.
- Catamarans: Shallow draft allows access to shallower waters and secluded anchorages, providing more flexibility in cruising destinations.
- Sailboats: Generally more affordable upfront, with a wide range of options available to fit different budgets.
- Catamarans: Often more expensive upfront due to their size and design. However, maintenance costs may be comparable or even lower in some cases.
7. Mooring and Docking:
- Sailboats: Easier to find slips and moorings in marinas designed for monohulls.
- Catamarans: Require wider slips and may have limited availability in certain marinas, especially in crowded anchorages.
8. Intended Use:
- Sailboats: Ideal for traditional sailors who enjoy the art of sailing, racing enthusiasts, or those on a tighter budget.
- Catamarans: Suited for those prioritizing comfort, stability, and spacious living areas, especially for long-term cruising and chartering.
9. Resale Value:
- Sailboats: Generally have a more established resale market, with a wider range of buyers.
- Catamarans: Growing in popularity, and well-maintained catamarans often retain their value.
10. Personal Preference:
- Consider your personal preferences, the type of sailing you plan to do, and the kind of lifestyle you want aboard your vessel.
In conclusion, both sailboats and catamarans have their advantages and disadvantages. Your decision should be based on your individual preferences, experience level, budget, and intended use. If possible, charter both types of vessels to experience firsthand how they handle and to help make a more informed decision based on your own preferences and needs.
