The tour guides and Captain were knowledgeable and friendly, the weather was nice and while we didn’t see any whales this particular trip, it was awesome to be out and about.

What you'll do

Embark on an adventurous coastal cruise and keep your eyes peeled for the Pacific humpback whales that flock to Hawaii every winter during migration season.

On this two hour tour, you'll be taken up and down Waikiki's coastline, whale spotting and enjoying the breath-taking scenery. As well as whales, you may spot a variety of other wildlife on this trip – turtles, dolphins and flying fish frequent the waters.

There's plenty of space aboard the 40ft Corinthian catamaran, so you'll get to relax and enjoy the tour in comfort. You'll also get a complimentary Mai Tai or soft drink to toast the glorious views. A must-do for ocean enthusiasts visiting Oahu!
