13.Maui Ma’alaea Sunset Prime Rib or Fresh Island Fish Dinner Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 533 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $149

Review of Maui’s Calypso sunset dinner cruise, with prime rib or fish, open-bar drinks, live music, whale sightings, and practical booking tips.

“We traveled with our three adult children to Maui for Christmas and thought a Christmas Eve dinner cruise would be perfect. The crew was very friendly and accommodating. Since we had a party of five we enjoyed a reserved table. Of course it was very windy but that’s to be expected. Between us we ordered prime rib, baby back ribs and fish as options. The fish was very good with lemon and capers and our daughter loved her ribs. The prime rib was fine but not the best. They were all served with white rice and a squash medley. All fine but under seasoned. We weren’t there for the food…”
