About this experience

When you want to escape the crowds and get up close with humpback whales, Private Whale Watching Waikiki "Keanuenue" Honolulu delivers the kind of intimate experience that makes all the difference. You'll have exclusive use of a 30-foot catamaran for just your group of up to 6 people, departing from Kewalo Basin Harbor for 2, 3, or 4 hours of prime whale watching along Oahu's south shore.

From November through April, humpback whales make their epic journey from Alaska to our warm Hawaiian waters. The peak season runs January to March, when you'll witness these magnificent creatures mating, teaching their newborns essential swimming skills, and displaying incredible courtship behaviors. Our crew taps into a communication network with other captains, so we're always heading toward the best whale activity of the day.

The spacious catamaran offers plenty of shaded seating and comes equipped with a Bluetooth sound system. Bring your own food and drinks - we'll provide soft drinks, water, and a large iced cooler with extra space for your provisions. Beyond whale watching, you can snorkel at offshore reefs where sea turtles and tropical fish are regulars, with all gear and flotation devices included.

Your flexible itinerary takes in stunning coastal views and prime photo ops at Diamond Head, while our experienced crew shares local knowledge and cultural stories that you won't get on packed tour boats. The private setting means personalized attention to both your safety and your experience.

This Private Whale Watching Waikiki "Keanuenue" adventure requires participants to be in good health for snorkeling activities. With free cancellation available with 48 hours notice and the ability to customize your itinerary based on your group's interests, this is whale watching the way it should be - personal, flexible, and unforgettable.
