Dolphin Encounter Charter Questions

  • Our private charter fleet includes vessels ranging from 25-foot boats perfect for intimate groups of 4-6 people to larger 50+ foot vessels accommodating up to 25 guests.

  • Yes, you’re welcome to bring personal food and beverages aboard all private charters. We provide cooler space, ice, and storage areas for your convenience. Professional catering services are also available featuring local Hawaiian cuisine and beverage packages. Alcohol is permitted for guests 21+ with proper identification.

  • Safety is our top priority. If conditions are unsafe for boating, we’ll work with you to reschedule your charter at no additional cost or provide a full refund.
