Itinerary
Join us to scan the Kona coast for our beautiful & majestic Kohola (Humpback Whales) that frequent our waters in the winter months.
We will have 3 hours to observe these amazing creatures as they migrate to Hawaii to birth their calves, mate, rest & play!
Come join us to watch these animals in the wild & observe their natural behavior & hear their hauntingly beautiful songs that fill the ocean.
You can opt to purchase individual spots on the boat (up to 6 spaces available max) or if you prefer the luxury and privacy of your own custom guided tour, you can book a private charter.
We need a minimum of (4) guests to run the tour.
Being on a small vessel allows for a more personal experience with our crew and more time in the water than the typical “tourist trap” large vessel.
This tour does include a short snorkel if time allows, but the main focus is finding & observing the Humpback Whales.
Please see our crew page on our website to learn more about our professional and highly qualified team.
