Whale Watching Cruise off the Kohala Coast

Great whale watching experience! We had our first whale sighting in 10 minutes. This trip was unique and we had a whale follow the boat for 30 minutes going right under the boat at one point. The crew was excited and the trip was memorable! Highly recommend this tour!

Excellent excursion with a great crew!

Shane was a fantastic guide. Captain got us up and spotting whales 15 minutes outside of Waikoloa. A nice vessel previously owned by James Arnes in GunSmoke. Wished it would have been under sail for part of the trip, but it did not deter from the experience. Saw a lot of whales.

The crew on our catamaran was excellent! Very safety oriented and very knowledgable about the ecology and life history of humpback whales. I highly recommend this company!

This whale watch was excellent! The staff were friendly and informative. As soon as we left the shore we ran into a pod of spinner dolphins who even jumped and spun for us. Then we also saw about 8 different whales, including a mother and her calf. We saw a couple breaching from a distance. The guides lowered a hydrophone a few times so we could hear their whale song. There was plenty of room to sit on the boat and the staff brought us juice and water and took away our empty cups when we finished. I’m very glad we selected this tour. The ocean was fairly calm in the morning and no one on the boat got sick.

This was a great experience! Crew and naturalist were very personable and informative. They actively steered the catamaran in the direction of whale activity. We saw several come to the surface and there was even a breach but it was unfortunately behind us. Would definitely recommend and we most certainly go again when we return next year.

My wife and I had an absolutely amazing experience. Once in a lifetime I'd say! We were lucky enough to have several humpbacks hangout by the boat, spy hopping, swimming under the boat, and coming up for air within feet of the boat. Our crew was great, Shane was just as excited as all of us on the tour to have the whales get so close, Adam was a great guide and had lots of information and kept it fun. It was amazing to be able to hear the whales sing through the underwater microphone, it's nothing like watching a documentary about whales. On our way back we got a special treat, several hundred spinner dolphins joined us for our journey back to the beach. The whole journey as was absolutely top notch! We will definitely be coming back, next time with our kids, and definitely be recommending you and your whale watching excursion to our friends and family and anybody else we run into heading to the big island. Thank you for your hospitality and such an amazing adventure!

Very friendly and knowledgeable crew from the shuttle driver to the captain.

They made great efforts to ensure we saw whales. But it was pretty easy that day, as there was a lot of whale activity.

We had a great experience with the crew and saw whales. The boat was comfortable and viewing was good from all parts of the vessel.

Absolutely amazing experience!! Knowledgeable crew! Beautiful boat! Would definitely recommend and repeat the experience!

While we did get to see some humpback whale activity, there were no big leaps or displays which is what the website and the check-in spot illude to. I think there should be a disclaimer so people don't get their hopes up.

The boat was clean and the crew was very helpful and friendly. Having a marine specialist on board to narrate and share interesting facts with the guests was wonderful and enjoyable.

The price of the tour was reasonable compared to many others.

Excellent tour. Thank you for your flexibility in allowing us to stay beyond our scheduled return once we came upon the pod of whales. Friendly and hospitable staff. Would love to do this again on a future trip!

Amazing crew - great job - lots of fun and of course many whales - well done - really recommend these guys

It was beautiful and informative. Everyone was very friendly and knowledgeable and made you feel like ohana. Unfortunately we didn’t see any whales, but because of that, we get to do it again for free. What a great company !
