Increase your chances of spotting the Kona coast’s most spectacular marine wildlife with this dolphin- and whale-watching excursion led by Big Island experts. Set off with a skipper and naturalist guides who know exactly where the best observation areas are. Marvel at more than a dozen species of whales and dolphins all year round. Take in views of the coastline and snap photos while you learn about the Kona ecosystem.
Join us as we explore Kona’s offshore! Unique to the Big Island of Hawaii are over 12 species of whales that can be found year-round. Kona’s rich coastal environment and deep offshore waters provide the best opportunity for the most potential encounters. Enjoy the magic of the winter humpback migration, or join us the rest of the year as we search for pilot whales, sperm whales, whale sharks, beaked whales, false killer whales, melon-headed whales, and many more!
Our search doesn’t stop at whales, as we often encounter spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, mantas, turtles, flying fish, sharks, and a host of other marine life on the Kona Coast! Our 3-4 hour tours are designed for ample time on the water and the ability to cover a large range of offshore areas. Our vessels are a platform for comfort and education, as our onboard naturalists will talk about the whales, wildlife, and Kona coastline throughout the trip!
