What you can expect

Step aboard a state-of-the-art catamaran and be whisked out to sea for an up-close encounter with pods of majestic humpback whales. Learn about these incredible, massive mammals’ habits and behaviours as you watch them breach, spout, and splash at sea. Whale sightings are guaranteed or come again for Free!

At the Kailua Pier, board a 65-foot (19-m) catamaran—complete with first-class amenities, cushioned seating, and bathrooms—and set off towards the breeding grounds of the gentle oceanic giants the Hawaiians call na kohola. These incredible creatures return to the tropical waters off the island's coast each year to breed and calf their young.

As you enjoy light snacks and island juices and Kona coffee, an expert naturalist recounts fascinating facts and details about the whales, unveiling the mysteries of the more than 8,000 humpbacks that make the journey to Hawaii each year.

Humpback whales are known for the particularly long and complex songs they use to communicate, so listen in on their stirring, eerie melodies using a special underwater hydrophone. Watch as they play and feed, and keep your eyes peeled for other marine life—these life-filled waters are also home to spinner dolphins, pilot and sperm whales, manta rays, and green sea turtles.
