Once in a lifetime whale watching experience! - We feel so blessed to have had such an unforgettable whale watching experience! Everything was so well organized and the boat was beautiful. The captain and crew were welcoming, personable, and professional.
Captain Zach spotted a pair of whales right after leaving the harbor. He positioned us perfectly, and we all patiently waited. A few minutes later, the whales came to check us out! They surfaced right next to the boat several times over the next hour, and we were in total awe. It was surreal.
This was more than just being in the right place at the right time. There was such a magical vibe on the boat that morning. I honestly feel like we were just bearing witness to the good karma the captain and crew created with their respect for these animals and the ocean.

Good morning whales - Luke, Zac and Marshall were great guides! We loved going early in the morning, as a lot of other tours started crowding toward the end of our tour. it was nice to be able to get out before them and have an open area to lookout for whales. On our tour there were 2 whales that seemed to be hanging around our boat checking things out, it was awesome!

Amazing Whale Experience in Oahu! - We had an incredible tour. The crew Ryan, Luke and Capt Zach clearly knew how to find whales and were very knowledgeable about their migration. We got very lucky with a perfect day on the water and they made it a lot of fun, too. The trolley from our hotel was a bonus to get to the harbor and Sheryl made 6:30 am enjoyable!

Awesome tour - Captain Zach, Aryan and Luke did a great job. We saw 20-30 dolphins super close by, one even did several "pirouette"-like jumps out of the water. The humpback whale was the absolute highlight. We were able to see it several times and once it got curious and even swam below our boat. Absolutely amazing!! Best tour ever.

Fun trip - whales or not! - The crew (on our trip it was Rachel, Rob and Captain Mark) made this excursion special even though the whales didn't see fit to pop up. The spinner dolphins and the sea turtles gave us quite a show and the crew went out of their way to show us a good time and provide an education along the way! Donuts and coffee were provided, as advertised as well as water, lemonade, and buckets for our personal belongings. It was a great day! Four hours all in. If you tend to be cold, you should bring a jacket.

Whales on the first day of the season! - We went on the very first day of whale watching season and the crew was determined to find whales and boy did they succeed. We got to see two adult dolphins with what they said was the smallest baby they’d ever seen - the size of a dolphin! They put on quite a show. We also got to see pods of spinner dolphins along the way and the whole trip was beautiful. Everyone on the crew was terrific. PS- the doughnuts are A+++ and saved us a trip to one of our top-choice bakeries!

Unforgettable whale watching experience! - We chose this trip, based on reviews and the fact that they specialized in whale and dolphin watching. We went Whale Watching on the very last day of what is considered the official season for whales in Oahu. We were blessed with wonderful weather and saw 5 whales. We absolutely loved talking with the crew that was more than willing to share facts about whales and other marine life. We loved that before we started out 2 hour trip, the ship Captain led with a traditional Hawaiian prayer asking for permission to enter the waters. At the end crew demonstrated a hula dance which was fun too:) . Captain Jerry, Robert and Luke, mahalo nui loa to all three of you for an unforgettable experience!!

Best crew and one of the best things we did in Oahu! - Captain Mark, Luke, and Ryan were the best tour guides for our trip! Luke the Whale Whisperer called out a boat move to get us some nice views of whales breeching! We got closeups of a mother whale and her calf, spinner dolphins, a manta ray... The whole gamut! Definitely recommend taking this tour. It was well worth waking up at 530am to make it in time!!
