About this experience
The meeting point is on Ala Moana Blvd in Honolulu, and guests make their own way there since no hotel pickup is available. Once on board, the crew heads out to search for whales, watching for spouts and sharing information about whale behavior and marine conservation. The team has traveled across the Polynesian islands studying whale behavior and focuses on approaching animals with care and respect throughout the trip.
The group is kept small, giving guests a quieter, more personal time on the water than a larger charter would offer. Life jackets and Bluetooth boat speakers are included. Water, sunscreen, and gratuity are not included, so plan to bring them. Sunscreen must be applied before boarding.
No refund is given if no whales are spotted. Waivers must be signed before boarding, and guests should arrive early enough to complete check-in.
