5.00Captain Jamie, Brian and Tyler was such a great crew. We appreciated the extra effort to go back out as we were coming in to see the mama and baby breaching. It was a memorable experience that we both will not forget. Thank you for the amazing tour and effort to make it so great 👍

3.00This was a nice boat ride but didn't get to see any whales. I'm sore that the whales were in Maui and not Waikiki
We had many whale sightings!

5.00Fill out your consent form before boarding so you can choose the upper decks for optimal viewing. Deck shoes or runners were a good choice to wear because these shoes😂are non slip.

5.00Had an amazing time!! Saw 5 whales! Captain Jaimie was very informative and it was fun hearing all the facts of their migration patterns. They took care of us and took care of the people that got sea sick with such care!

5.00Captain Jamie, deck hands Ryan and Tyler made a point to give us the best experience possible! We saw multiple whales, learned a lot about them and got to see 2 breaches just prior finishing our trip. That was when he played that music in the band was like you can’t guarantee nothing for nature so it was just so happen that they cooperated, but it was funny and also amazing so that was a great experience! Those guys know how to make sure you have a wonderful time.
Amazing Tour!

5.00Captain Jamie, Ryan and Tyler were amazing! My mom, sisters and I decided on Sunday to book a whale tour for today. Jamie and his crew didn’t disappoint! From his awesome playlist to fun and informative commentary it was great, oh and then we saw humpback whales! So incredible, we saw 3 adult and a baby with its mom. Baby even breached up a few times. When we started to head back into the dock he turned it around so we could get an even closer view. So thankful for him doing that for us all. Also a huge shout out to Ryan and Tyler for taking care of everyone on the boat. Getting drinks, food and above all keeping everyone safe and taking care of the sick. It’s not an easy job to do and they took care of us. Truly an amazing tour, recommend anyone visiting the area to book with them! 10/10
Great bang for your buck!

5.00It was a perfect day weather wise but very rough seas with a lot of going up and down large waves. I had a large zoom lens and I found it difficult to zoom in but we did see a lot of humpback whales today. In fact Captain Jamie headed back out to sea to try and catch a humpback whale breaching which I thought was a great thing for him to do. We were close to the dock and he turned around and headed back out to sea! I caught the baby humpback whale breaching which was exciting to watch and capture. Overall it was a very good day!
