Once you meet your crew at the boat they will brief you on safety before you head out past the most famous surf breaks in the world. Along the way you see famous tv and movie sites. If you are one of the lucky ones, not only will you see humpback whales , but you might also see dolphins, turtles and maybe even the amazing flying fish. In between you will learn some Hawaiian and surfing history. Surfing or the art of riding waves was actually created right here in Hawai’i.

Frequently Asked Questions (8)

Q: Will I get seasick on Oahu: Whale Watching on “The World Famous North Shore”, Hawaii?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
