For travelers, celebrating the holidays in a foreign place can be both a welcome change, and a bit odd. When you’re in a tropical destination like Maui, you miss out on some of the classic traditions that you have been become accustomed to like cold weather, family gatherings, and spending the day preparing a large meal. In some ways, taking a Christmas vacation is a much better option, with the pressures of the holiday removed and the typical pressures of the holiday gone. When celebrating Christmas on Maui, you’ll have the warm tropical weather and the beauty of the island to celebrate the holiday, plus options for dining and enjoying the traditional Christmas meal.

Arriving on Maui, you’ll be met in the airport by festive holiday music, including the popular Hawaiian Christmas song “Mele Kalikimaka” filling the air; a song that you are likely to hear countless times during Christmas on Maui. The same traditions are alive and well on Maui, and you’ll find Christmas trees in your hotel, garland, and many of the elements of the holiday that we have become part of our lives every December.

When it comes to Christmas day activities, the options are few and far between because most operators are closed for the day. However, there are two great options that are fun, provide a delicious meal, and show off the stunning beauty of the Valley Isle. For the early birds, head out on a Christmas Day Brunch Cruise, a perfect afternoon activity on board a double decker catamaran, cruising along the West Maui coast that provides the amazing scenery throughout this two-hour outing.

The second activity option is the perfect choice for Christmas dinner, heading out in the evening hours for a delicious meal and a stunning sunrise that will be one of the most unique holiday celebrations you will ever have. Cruise along Maui’s coast on a Christmas Day Dinner Cruise, keeping your eyes out for Humpback Whales throughout the evening. You will enjoy a delicious meal on board while enjoying the scenery from the luxurious double decker catamaran, with live music filling the air.

There are no better options for Christmas Day than a cruise along the Maui coast. With options available for brunch and dinner, you have your pick of when you want to celebrate the holidays, and you’ll have the natural beauty of Maui while cruising along the coast. Celebrating Christmas on Maui will be a holiday that you always remember.
