North Shore Catamaran – Whale Watching Cruise

Head out along Oahu's North Shore on a two-hour sailing trip during humpback whale season. The catamaran's twin-hull design keeps the ride steady and close to the water, giving you a clear view when whales surface, lift their tails or move alongside the coastline.

Whenever conditions allow, the crew sails under wind power for a quieter experience on the water. Your guides share information about humpback whale behavior, and an underwater hydrophone may be lowered so you can listen for whale songs and other sounds beneath the surface.

Depending on the day, you may see mothers with calves, individual whales cruising offshore or more active surface behavior. Morning, afternoon and sunset departures are available, each with a different view of the North Shore.
