Soothing with Great Views - The cruise took off around 5:30pm. Nolan and Sarah were both great. We really enjoyed the trip … it was very relaxing. Had some great chats with family and newly met friends on the boat. Music (chosen by Sarah) was soothing and tropical. No drama. Unbelievable views of Diamond Head.

Amazing experience with wonderful crew. - The whale watching tour was amazing! Not only did we see whales, but there were turtles and both spinner and bottlenose dolphins. Brin was such a fun person and really helped take the tour to the next level! I also appreciated starting the tour with a traditional oli.

The crew was so fun! - Captain Nolen and Brynn made the experience a lot of fun! We didn’t get to see any whales up close, but the dolphins we saw were amazing! They swam with the boat for a long time. We had a great time! Be sure you wear a jacket!

Worth it! - Captain Nolan and Bryn were excellent hosts! While we didn’t see whales, we had an incredible dolphin show! They came right up to the boat! The music was fun and it was a great vibe!

BYOB + Whales? Yes please! - Really great experience with a friendly crew, awesome views, and spottings of lots of whales and dolphins. It was BYOB which was fun as everyone was able to bring their favorite beverage and people got social pretty quick :) super convenient if you are staying in Waikiki as the dock is a nice walk or short cab ride away. If you're visiting Honolulu during whale season, definitely try this out!

Friendly crew and nice atmosphere - A great boat to get out on the water. Friendly staff, provided snacks and some beverages. Crew Sarah (we forget skippers name sorry!) was very friendly and they were determined to find us some whales and we eventually saw some tale flukes. Good atmosphere watching the sunset as we made our way back to the harbor.
