Whale Watching on "The World Famous North Shore of Oahu", Hawaii

Premium and exclusive sunset whale watching tours on the world famous, beautiful and uncrowded north shore of Oahu.

Our boats are all state of the art double hull catamarans for stability and two engines for safety.

The main reason for the humpback whale's annual migration is to mate and give birth to their children in warm water and very little to no predators like the orca.

Sometimes we get escorted by huge pods of dolphins.

Two adult humpback whales breaching the water. Always the number one highlight if we are lucky enough to see it and we get a lot more whales on our side with the lack of boat traffic.

Learn about the Hawaiian history as well as all of the TV and movie locations.

Very little to no other boat traffic on the world famous "NORTH SHORE" where we are located.

All to ourselves. This is the Kamohoali'i with seating up to 28 passengers and lots of shade and comfort. No better boat on the entire "North Shore."
