Enjoy a whale watch tour on Oahu’s west shore!
Most Oahu whale watch cruises are off the Waikiki coastline, so this is truly a unique tour that takes you along the island’s largely undeveloped and very scenic west coast.
During Hawaii’s whale watch season, which runs from December through April, humpback whales frolic in Hawaii’s warm waters to mate and nurse their young. Whale sightings are guaranteed on this whale watch cruise. If you don’t see whales, come back again one more time for free! (Rerides only, no refunds).
On Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays, this whale watch tour is on the brand new 65-foot sailing catamaran Ko Nau Lani. For a whale watch tour on board a 42-foot powerboat monohull called The Beach, make your reservation on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. (Vessels are subject to change without notice. Please call to confirm if you want to book your tour on a specific vessel).
