Private Whale Watching Tour

This private whale watching tour goes out along the North Shore Oahu coastline from Haleiwa Harbor, where guests board the boat. The focus is northern Pacific humpback whales, known in Hawaiian as koholā, which travel from Canada and Alaska to Hawaiian waters between October and April to give birth, care for their young, and mate. During that period, the whales can be seen breaching, fin slapping, and moving through the ocean, all from the boat.

The tour runs as a private charter, so the group on board is limited to your own party rather than a mixed crowd of strangers. Travelers planning a visit between October and April have the opportunity to see humpback whale activity along this stretch of coastline. Those with questions about reservations or schedule changes should contact Bob Marlin Charters directly, keeping in mind that the operator requires contact well in advance of the trip to make any adjustments.
