Pacific Whale Foundation + Three’s Catering: A Proud Partnership!

Pacific Whale Foundation has existed since 1980.  That’s nearly 40 years of being a voice for the whales through research, conservation and community awareness.  That includes giving the public an incredible opportunity to not only learn about our precious marine life, but also experience it up close, through a range of boat trips.  Their eco-adventures are led by certified Marine Naturalists who provide a truly unique, educational and fun adventure at sea.  Those daily trips, from snorkel excursions to whale watches to dinner cruises, also include fresh, quality food, which Three’s Catering is proud to provide on every single trip, morning to night.  Learn more about what you’ll enjoy in our fun video above.

Our boat catering staff is a personable, professional team of talented chefs.  And it’s a pretty sweet gig to have the amazing ocean, complete with breeching whales and playful dolphins, as your backdrop!!  If you have the dedication and experience to join us, we’ve got some important openings, so check out some of our job listings in this video and apply online here!

Behind the scenes, we share in Pacific Whale Foundation’s passion and mission for marine stewardship and sustainability.  We’re committed to using NO plastic wrap for our boat catering orders, and feature 100% reusable containers, plates and cutlery for all boat trips.  We also proudly switched to paper straws at our Fork & Salad locations in Kīhei and Kahului.

So, go for it:  take to the ocean and enjoy the best of Maui’s abundant marine life, and we’ll be sure to provide you with fantastic food along your voyage!!

Celebrating the season with loved ones? Join us! Tipping back a few drinks with friends? We got you. Hosting family over the holidays? Pull up a few chairs! Fitting in a work luncheon before the break? Come on in.

Three’s is perfect for any occasion all year long, whether you want to enjoy our dining room, chill in our recently-renovated Surf Lounge, or take in some live music from morning till night on our outdoor patio. Since we’re open for breakfast, lunch, happy hour (twice a day!) and dinner, you can indulge with friends and family anytime!!

What makes Three’s really special is this: there is nearly no limit to your party size!! We can easily accomodate groups of up to 20 just by calling in and making a reservation. For larger groups, we recommend emailing us and connecting with our catering sales manager Sarah Fravel for a more customized dining experience. Plus, our doors are open for all major holidays; we shut down for breakfast and lunch only on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day, but open back up to greet holiday diners at 3 p.m.!

Speaking of the holidays, we offer some spectacular specials for Christmas Eve AND Day dinners, like Kona coffee-crusted pork loin with roasted garlic and Parmesan polenta, or try our famous mochiko-marinated seared duck breast with sage bread pudding and cranberry-ginger compote. Either one is an epic deal at $32.95! Not only that, but our ENTIRE regular dinner and sushi/raw bar menu is available all night on December 24 and 25!!

The following week, we offer a great four-course New Year’s Eve prix-fixe menu for just $49!! Menu selections include choice of appetizers: oyster trio, kalua pork quesadilla or coconut shrimp; choice of salad: Caesar or our Kumu Farms organic green salad with passion fruit dressing; and choice of entree: fresh island fish, Hawaiian prime rib, duck breast or pork loin; plus a chef-inspired dessert!!

If you’d rather mark the occasion on the water, you can enjoy our food courtesy of Pacific Whale Foundation, which is offering a special Christmas Day brunch cruise with a great spread of favorites from Three’s Catering, including grilled chicken breast with thyme and Hamakua mushroom cream sauce, our signature coffee-crusted pork loin, coconut-whipped Molokai purple sweet potatoes, Upcountry greens, locally-grown vegetables, assorted desserts and fresh-baked taro, guava and sweet rolls.

Pacific Whale also offers a fantastic Christmas Day dinner on the ocean, which includes our roast turkey, traditional stuffing, baked ham, whipped garlic potatoes, wok-fried brussel sprouts and more!

Then there’s the ever-popular New Year’s Eve cruise with a champagne toast at midnight and amazing views of the fireworks over the ocean, where we’re serving up some cool offerings like root beer-glazed beef short rib sliders, chilled shrimp cocktail, California rolls, spicy tuna rolls, turkey lettuce wraps, vegetarian pot stickers, roasted root vegetables with pesto, fresh fruit, desserts and more! All the cruises also offer complimentary beer, wine and cocktails, unlimited soft drinks, and some of the best whale watching and socializing around!

As for Three’s, just a reminder that we are welcoming customers during regular business hours on Christmas Eve, open at 3 p.m. on Christmas Day (with dinner from 5 to 10 p.m.), and are open as normal on both New Year’s Eve AND Day. So come celebrate with us whenever you please, bring in those nearest and dearest to you and know we’ve got a spot for you all at Three’s! Happy Holidays!!
