About this activity
Approximately 10,000 whales migrate to Hawaii from Alaska each year! To celebrate the first year of offering whale watching, Dolphins and You gives you the opportunity to see our planet’s most majestic creatures in-person.
With transportation from Waikiki included, our all-new 55-foot power boat departs from Oahu's pristine west coast. This is the natural home of Hawaii’s wild dolphins and migrating whales, surrounded by the stunning Waianae Mountain Range. We begin with an authentic Hawaiian plumeria flower ceremony and chant, "E Ho Mai" to bring us good fortune during our voyage. Then we will cruise the West Side in search of whales and Hawaiian Spinner Dolphins. Watch these incredible animals as they come to the surface for air and perform acrobatic jumps out of the water, or upgrade your whale watching tour to experience a swim in the ocean with the dolphins on a Dolphins and You tour!
The tour follows Hawaii Ecotourism Association sustainable tour practices to help ensure that the marine life we encounter is around for generations to come. Feel free to relax on the two-deck boat or wraparound bow seating and enjoy a nice day on the water. On the way back you'll be entertained by our amazing crew. They'll perform ukulele, authentic hula dance and songs. They might even teach you a dance! Before we get back to harbor you'll enjoy our signature taro bun cheeseburger (vegetarian options available) to replenish your energy.
A quick group photo at the dock, and then you can head back on the bus to enjoy a leisurely, air-conditioned ride back to Waikiki. We also offer professional quality photo and video packages so you don't have to worry about trying to capture the moments while you're out on the water. Let us collect the memories for you. You'll get them on a custom USB drive to take home to share with your friends and family. Additionally, wetsuits are available to rent for a small charge. Full details and options are available when you book.
Don’t miss an opportunity to see one of the world’s largest animals in person during their migration through Hawaii!
