Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec–Mar]

Best whale watch in Honolulu

Reviewed by: Unju Rogers

This is by far the best whale watch in Honolulu. I've been on both Navatek and Star of the Sea whale watches and they do not compare to the experience you get with this whale watch. The catamaran is very clean and the crew was great! They were not only observant to everyone's safety on board they were hilarious! My family (including a two year old toddler) had an amazing time. I was very fortunate to have found this activity through Veltra. I was hosting a friend who had never been on a whale watch and it was an amazing experience. We chose the late morning tour and it was perfect. The boat went out and the crew was able to find whales within 30 minutes from take off. There were an estimated 5 male humpback whales swimming together and we circled them while they dove. They were so magnificent and during the time we were watching them the crew members told us much about their behaviors. they told us why it wasn't unusual that a group of males would be traveling together and they also told us what would've been different if we had spotted a mama and her calf. Although none breached out of the water we saw them come to the surface many times. It was so amazing to see so many of them at once! At one point we saw all five come to the surface and blow water from their backs at the same time. Talk about a magical vacation moment!

I'd book this again in a heartbeat!!

Great Activity, a couple whales and some dauphins.

Reviewed by: Gilles

we just went to this activity last Wednesday 8.30 am and it was great! We arrived a bit early and just took a walk around the park. very nice area. They have easy parking next to the Marina where you can park for $1.00/ hour. The crew on the cruise was very nice and made us feel welcome right away. We were only 6 on the cruise witch made it very intimate. I think that is one of the great advantages of the morning cruise, We took a drink and sat on the front nats until we saw turtle and dauphins and finally on the way back a couple whales. The whales were the least impressive as you stand far away and they don t really jump out of the water as you see on TV. It was one mother and one maybe and they basically just came up to the surface to breath every so often. Everything considering, this was a great way to spend morning. Maybe a bit overpriced but the crew and amenities were great.
Compare to the huge ships, I would choose this one every time just so you actually feel like you are on a boat .
Snacks could use improvement and the way back to marina was a bit rushed

Wonderful crew, Dolphins and sea life up close

Reviewed by: Tina

The catamaran was the perfect vessel to get up close to Dolphins, turtles and other sea life. From the minute we got on board the entire crew had welcomed us and made us feel comfortable. The captain explained what we would see and the rules of the vessel and was ready and willing to answer any questions or address any issues. I was impressed that they offered sunscreen to use and oil for motion sickness. It was thoughtful of them and they really cared about their passengers having a good trip. They had refreshments and juices for free. They offered beer for ($1) and mixed drinks for ($2). The drinks were strong, too. : ) We saw several pods of Dolphins, turtles and a whale. It was an awesome experience. I would take my children next time we go to Hawaii. Thank you to all the crew. You were the best!

It was dynamic. ダイナミックでした

Reviewed by: yumiko

I was worried about seasickness and the possibility of falling into the sea while traveling with my almost 2-year-old and 6-year-old, but those worries were completely unfounded. At first, we only caught a glimpse of a dorsal fin, but before we knew it, we were treated to the spectacular sight of 3 or 4 whales diving one after another! Both the kids and the adults, including the captain, were thrilled. On the way back, we were also able to see dolphins.

One thing… I would have appreciated a bit more for breakfast. However, we returned to the hotel by late morning and were able to make very meaningful use of our day.

もうすぐ2歳児と6歳の子供連れで、船酔いの心配や万が一海に落ちたら!などの心配をしてたのですが、全く杞憂でした。
最初は背びれを少し目撃するだけでしたが、気付いたら3.4頭のクジラが次々豪快なダイブを見せてくれました!子供も大人も船長さん(笑)も大興奮でした。帰りにはイルカたちも見ることが出来ました。
あと、一つ…やはり朝食が…もう少しだけ何かあれば嬉しかったです。
ですが、お昼前にはホテルに戻り、とても有意義に1日を使うことが出来ました。

Great family trip!

Reviewed by: Josh

My family of four had a great time on this cruise. We did have some trouble finding the boat in the slip at the harbor. Directions could have been better. Once we were on the boat, everything was what was expected. The crew was very nice and helpful. We found a pod of whales right away and then went and snorkeled at a reef because we had time. Drinks were great along the way.

The weather was nice and it was a pleasant cruise, but it wasn't as good for watching as I had hoped. A couple of whales spouted, but I think many people missed them because they were small. I guess it's just luck, isn't it? Diamond Head was clearly visible and the scenery was beautiful!

お天気も良く気持ちいいクルーズでしたが期待していた程のウォッチングではありませんでした。2頭ほど塩は吹いてくれましたが小さく見逃した方も多くいらしたと思います。

I want to participate again! また参加したいです!

Reviewed by: Kay

I participated with my mother. At first, I was really worried about whether we would see any whales, but within 20 minutes of the boat departing, we encountered our first one! When I looked in the direction the captain indicated, I quickly spotted it blowing water high into the air. After that, we had several more encounters! Among them, there were two whales snuggling together like a mother and her calf. I was moved to meet wild whales off the coast of Honolulu. On the way back, I also participated in a lei-making class and received a lei as a keepsake. I would love to join again if I have the chance.

母と二人で参加しました。初めは本当にくじらが見られるのか不安でしたが船が出港してから20分もたたずに一頭目に遭遇!キャプテンが指示してくれた方向を見ると高く潮を吹いてていたのですぐに見つけられました。それからもぞくぞく遭遇!中には親子のように二頭寄り添っているくじらも。野生のくじらにホノルル沖で出会えて感動しました。帰りの船の中でレイ作りのクラスにも参加、レイも記念に頂きました。またチャンスがあったら参加したいです。

Reviewed by: DAVE

It was amazing.
During the roughly two-hour voyage through rough waves, we were able to see five whales.
The drink service was great, and the staff's performance was very friendly and enjoyable.
You definitely need motion sickness medication. Also, it gets cold, and when you go to the front, you can get splashed by the waves, so a towel and rain gear are essential.
There was one staff member of Japanese descent who provided boarding instructions in Japanese, but after that, it was all about enjoying the sea, the whales, and the beer.
Also, when boarding, you go barefoot. You leave your shoes on the pier, so you don't need heavy footwear.

最高でした。
波の荒い中、約2時間の航海、五頭のクジラに合うことができました。
飲み物サービスもよく、スタッフの演出も大変フレンドリーで楽しめました。
酔い止めは、必ず必要です。 また寒く 前方にでると波もかなりかぶるのでタオル・レインウエアーは必携でしょう。
スタッフに日系人が、一人で日本語での乗船案内はしてくれましたが、あとは海とクジラとビールを楽しむモードでOKです。
尚、乗船するときは、裸足です。靴は、桟橋においていきますのでごっつい靴はいりません。

I was about to give up when I couldn't find any whales and was preparing to return to port. Then, I spotted a whale spouting water. They extended the cruise time and slowed down the boat. After that, I was able to see it spout several times, and I also caught a glimpse of its distinctive tail. The excitement of finally seeing the whale was overwhelming. On top of that, a sea turtle swam by gracefully. The view of Waikiki from the sea was beautiful, and I think it's great to enjoy a leisurely cruise while waiting for the whales.

Whale watching ホエールウォッチング

Reviewed by: s.yuki

I participated in my first trip to Hawaii with my family. We took a taxi from our hotel in Waikiki to the pier, checked in, and boarded the ship! I was a bit anxious about the language barrier since everything was in English, but there were Japanese announcements, so I didn't have much trouble. There were quite a few Japanese guests as well. The cruise started in the morning with great weather, and since we chose a plan without meals, we stayed on the top deck enjoying the sea and the scenery. As for the whales... we saw them! We could see the spouts and dorsal fins every few minutes, and it felt like we were cruising alongside them, which was very pleasant; I wanted to keep watching. I also hope to see them jump next time!

This was a great experience. Very knowledgable naturalist. The first cruise out we didn't see any whales, but they guarantee sightings, so they gave everyone a voucher for a free second trip. I went right back out on the lunch cruise and we saw a bunch of whales! We even followed (at a respectful distance) a mom and baby for about an hour. She breached right in front of our boat! The food was very good (especially because I originally signed up for the breakfast cruise so I wasn't counting on eating). Staff was great, I'd recommend this to anybody!

Perfect Day On The Bay

Reviewed by: ----------RHO----

It was an amazing way to spend the day out on the bay! I have heard so much about how beautiful whale watching is, and they are not wrong. The captain and the naturalists on board knew everything and anything there is about humpback whales. They even have library books on their tables for everyone to read and learn. Lunch was great with an endless buffet of local food. The whales were awesome! They were flapping their tales every 5 minutes. We found a pod of about 6 whales. None of them however jumped or stood out of the water, but that is not a problem. We were fortunate to have found them in 20 minutes of departure. We had a good 2 hours of observing and trying to take as much pictures as we could.

のんびり朝食を食べクジラを探したりワイキキの海岸沿いを眺めながらゆったりゆらゆら 写真を撮ってくれるスタッフさんもいたりして気持ちよく過ごせました

I intentionally chose the Navatek and participated. It was a great decision! The number of people was just right, and I think we were in a spot where everyone could see well. When someone spotted a whale, we quickly moved to that position. We even encountered a large group of dolphins that felt almost like a performance! Although we couldn't see the whale in its entirety (is that how it usually is?), I was able to confirm it with my own eyes!

あえてナバテック号を選んで、参加しました。
大正解!
人数的にもちょうどよく、みんなが見えやすい場所にいたと思います。
誰かが、クジラの気配を見つけると、割と小回り良くそのポジションに移動しました。
演出?!と思うくらいのイルカの大群にも出会え、、、肝心のクジラも姿丸ごとは観れませんでしたが(そうそうそういうもの?)
この目でしっかりと確認できました!!

Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec–Mar]

Excellent day watching whales

Reviewed by: Roy and Trish Brooks

Roy and I really enjoyed ourself, the guys were all great, we have been on a few different whale watch tours thru out the years, and by all means this was the best, we got to experience at least 40 sightings of whales, was simple wonderful. Will tell all our friends that visit Oahu, while we were on the boat we first saw several turtles, had to laugh cuz the guys said to look for trash cans lids, that was the green sea turtles and we saw about five of them, also the snacks they served were great I ate a lot of the fresh fruit and had a beer that they had available on tap. We will be sure to pass the word on of the great time we had and have passed out a few of the extra business cards we had. Great time.

Whale Watching Sail in Waikiki on the Honu Lani with Optional Transportation Available [Dec–Mar]

Not a good experience

Reviewed by: Lina

This was not a good experience for me because one of the crew members was rude at the beginning so it kind of ruined my trip. There was no lunch, they had some chips, an assortment of drinks and granola bars. We did not see too much whales but I guess it's not up to the crew, it is whenever whales want to get out of the water which in our case there wasn't that much to see. The boat was nice and I like the nets in the front, it was kind of fun to sit and watch the ocean from there. Drinks were good too. Captain was very good at maneuvering the boat. The boat was clean and acceptable. I think they could work on better manners for the crew and it won't be too bad.

Our whale excursion was a great experience. Our crew, Anthony, Carlos and Bret were very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. We saw two pods of whales. All in all, it was a great day. I would highly recommend this activity to anyone.

It was a fun cruise! 楽しいクルーズでした!

Reviewed by: くま

I was able to see a lot of whales! The prior explanation by the tour guide was in English, and then there was an announcement in Japanese, which made it easy to understand.
The reason for the four-star rating is the weather. Unfortunately, it happened to be cloudy with rain, which was disappointing. Thanks to the meal plan, I was able to warm up my chilled body with coffee and tea, which was a great help!

たくさんくじらを見ることができました!事前の説明も添乗員さんが英語でした後に日本でアナウンスが流れ、分かりやすかったです。
☆4の理由は天気。たまたま天気が曇りのち雨と悪かったのが残念でした。食事付きプランにしたおかげでコーヒーや紅茶で雨で冷えた身体を温めることができ、助かりました!
