Whale Watch Safari

The tour searches for migrating humpback whales, which visit Hawaiian waters from December through April to breed, give birth, and nurse their calves. Guests may witness behaviors such as breaching, spy-hopping, spouting, tail slapping, and pectoral fin waving, and whales sometimes approach the boat on their own for close encounters.

The boat holds a small number of passengers, making the experience personal and relaxed rather than crowded. Dolphins, sea turtles, and seabirds can also appear during the trip.

All guests must check in with the captain at the boat before departure. Late arrivals cannot be accommodated, as each charter runs on a strict schedule. Bring sunscreen, water, food or snacks, and secure any camera or phone you plan to bring. Sunglasses and a light jacket are also worth packing for time on the water.
