Whale Watch, Dolphins, Turtles and Sightseeing Cruise (winter only)

Overview
Experience the beauty of Oʻahu South Shore as we sail toward Lēʻahi (Diamond Head) aboard the spacious Haleiwa Queen, a 50ft power catamaran, with 49 seats, an onboard restroom, a shaded deck, and complimentary beverages. Learn the history of Waikīkī where chiefs and commoners once lived. Our local born and raised crew members will share stories of their ancestors and experiences about growing up in this magical place, Hawaiʻi. Waterman their entire lives, our crew will share their passion, love, and respect for the ocean. You will explore the lively and vibrant ocean floor through our magnified glass bottom view ports. Enjoy the clear view of the Pacific Ocean as we cruise over live coral reefs, encounter tropical fish, honu (sea turtles), eel, reef sharks, dolphins, and humpback whales during season.

PLEASE NOTE: Our crew will make every effort possible to allow guests to see marine life, but since there are conditions beyond our control, we CANNOT guarantee any animal sightings.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff and the cruise itself. The staff was amazing and we saw dolphins which swam in front of our boat for a long time, turtles, fish and to top it off 2-3 humpback whales. This was definitely the highlight of our trip. Thank you for such a wonderful time.

We really enjoyed our whale watch experience and were fortunate to see three whales (one mama and her calf were together). This was my grandson’s first time seeing whales, which made it fun. Captain was great. Time on board was sufficient.

The advert depicts a whale leaping out of the water, which is what we paid to see! However even before the boat had left the harbour, the operator announced that we would not see any whales as one hour is not enough time! So why advertise as such?
