Zodiac Raft Whale Watching Adventure

Overview

The experience of watching 40 foot (12 meter) whales from a 24 foot (7 meter) Zodiac raft is something you'll never forget! Following Hawaiian Marine Park laws of stopping at least 100 yards (90 meters) away from these magnificent animals, you get a close up look at the migrating humpback whales. It is not uncommon for them to be curious about the raft and come right under the boat!

The crew was GREAT! Captain Rick was fantastic and really went the extra "miles" literally to provide us with a once in a lifetime whale encounter. We know our experience was not the norm because we had a humpback whale come right up to the boat and hung out with us for about four minutes. It was pure magic really special. Mahalo!

It was a great day out on the water. We were told it would be rough, but I found it really a nice outing. The staff were attentive and friendly from the check in and throughout the day. Saw some whales thanks to the patients of our captain. Best part of the day, hands down, the two petting dogs in the office. All business should follow this model.

We saw whales, a Hawaiian Monk seal, and two kinds of dolphins. Listened to whales and porpoise with hydrophobic. Guides explained behaviors and were very caring. It was amazing. Highly recommend!
