Sunset whale watching + byob Honolulu aboard E Sea Diver's 65-foot vessel offers an unforgettable 2-hour Pacific Ocean adventure. From December 15 through April 15, Hawaii's prime whale watching season brings majestic humpback whales to our warm waters as they migrate from Alaska for breeding and calving. You'll witness these incredible giants breaching the surface, tail slapping, and displaying their raw power while enjoying panoramic views of Waikiki's coastline and Diamond Head.
Setting sail at 5:00 PM from Kewalo Basin Harbor, our two-story deck design gives you prime viewing spots for whale encounters and photography. The large, stable boat ensures a smooth ride that keeps seasickness at bay, while professional naturalist guides share captivating insights about whale behaviors, migration patterns, and marine life.
As the Hawaiian sun melts into the horizon, sip two complimentary cocktails per guest while Diamond Head's dramatic silhouette glows in the evening light. Your sunset whale watching + byob experience includes drinks and snacks (water, granola bars, lemonade, or iced tea), free binocular rentals for enhanced wildlife viewing, plus convenient round-trip transportation from your hotel or designated pickup location.
Our spacious vessel accommodates up to 100 guests with both stroller and wheelchair accessibility. The tour welcomes guests ages 99 and under, with check-in starting at 4:45 PM at slip F-18. All taxes and fees are included in pricing starting from $52 per person, and you're welcome to bring additional beverages or snacks. The 24-hour cancellation policy provides flexibility for your travel plans, making this the perfect blend of nature, adventure, and relaxation during Hawaii's peak whale migration season.
