About this experience

The Whale Watch Cruise with Ocean Therapy Charters takes guests out on the water off the shores of Waikiki to observe humpback whales as they migrate through Hawaiian waters. The cruise runs during a seasonal window from late November through mid-April, though the schedule may extend depending on whale migration patterns. There is no hotel pickup, so travelers make their own way to the departure location.

On the water, the boat navigates near the whales while staying within the boundaries set by nature and local law. Humpbacks can be seen playing, feeding, breaching, and moving through the water. Bringing a camera is a good idea. Complimentary snacks, soft drinks, and water are included, so there is no need to pack refreshments. The tour runs as a group excursion with no private option available.
