Grand Princess 2/2/15 docking ? in Maui

[Keats]

Can anyone tell me exactly where the Grand Princess will be docking when it arrives in Maui on 10 Feb 2015?

Apparently there are two locations where it can dock and depending on where it docks, getting to a Whale Watching facility requires a cab or perhaps a bus ?

Has anyone ever used Tom's Barefoot Whale Watching tours?

Any tips or clues that might be of help/

 

Thanks,

Lahaina, Maui is a tender port and I know of only 1 dock for the tenders. All the tour boats are extremely close to that dock.

Never any docking in Lahaina. When the tender docks, just make a right at the end of the pier and multiple whale watching excursions will be available.

Here's a photo of the tender landing at Lahaina. It's located right in front of the Pioneer Inn, at Banyon Tree Park. I don't know about Tom's Barefoot Whale Watching Tours in particular, but there are a few whale watching companies that are located just to the right when you exit the tender area.

There is a dock where cruise ships can come alongside on the other side of the island...not sure of which town, but it's used mainly by NCL. Princess tenders into Lahaina.

The town is Kahalui. NCL uses it most frequently, but others occasionally.

 

Tons of info on whale watching on the Hawaii board, located here:
