Duration
Half Day
Today, witness the majesty of one of nature's largest animals in their natural habitat on this private half-day whale watching experience!
Meet your captain, a longtime local of Oahu, at the meeting point dock to board your private boat and set off on the crystalline waters towards these beautiful creatures.
During the cooler months in the Northern Hemisphere, the northern Pacific humpback whales (kohola) make their down way from Canada and Alaska to give birth, take care of their young and mate in the warm tropical waters of Hawaii. The North Shore Oahu coastline is the best way to watch this incredible humpback whale activity right outside the harbor. Sit back and enjoy the splendor of these majestic creatures breech the surface of the water and frolic in their ocean home. Enjoy the unique show from the comfort and safety of your boat with your captain as your guide in sharing information on these incredible creatures and their natural habitats.
As your whale watching adventure comes to an end, your guide will return you to the meeting point dock where you can enjoy the rest of your day at your leisure.
