Kohala Coast Whale Watch Tours - Morning & Sunset Cruise
Set a course along the Kohala Coast for a chance to see migrating whales! Choose from morning trips, cocktail cruises and afternoon sailing. Great for all ages.
Each winter, majestic humpback whales migrate south from the cold waters of the northern Pacific to bask in the warmth of the Hawaiian seas.Witness these incredible creatures emerge from the depths below in stunning displays of grace and power. With three daily cruises, there is always a trip perfect for your schedule, and an on-board naturalist is always ready to answer your questions. All ages are welcome, making this a great choice for families. Afternoon trips even let you experience authentic sailing, and the later departures are back-dropped by the Hawaiian sunset.
Please Note! This activity only operates from December through mid-April during whale season. From mid-April through November, please book the Snorkel Adventure Cruise & Ocean Picnic (from Waikoloa & Kawaihae) instead.

Amazing! Our guide spotted a whale right away, and he swam around and around the ship for an hour.
