Waikoloa Deluxe Whale Watch
Overview
Experience the magic of whale season in Waikoloa with a guided whale watching tour along the stunning Kohala Coast. Choose between the thrill of a small powerboat, where you’ll be closer to the water and the action, or the comfort of a spacious catamaran with plenty of room to relax.
From December through April, humpback whales migrate to Hawaii’s warm waters, and you’ll have the chance to witness their incredible breaches, tail slaps, and songs. With expert crew sharing insights into whale behavior and the surrounding marine life, this adventure is both exciting and educational—an unforgettable way to experience Hawaii’s natural beauty.
Sightings guaranteed.
