Overview

Experience this sensational opportunity aboard our semi-private charter. We have limited our tours to just 6 guest per excursion to offer the most personalized adventure. View humpback whales in their natural habitat as they migrate from the frigid Alaskan waters back to the warm waters of Hawaii annually. Every winter, the waters surrounding Oahu transform into a stage for one of nature's most awe-inspiring spectacles—the migration of humpback whales. The purpose of this migration is twofold: to give birth and nurse their calves in the protected bays, and to engage in elaborate courtship rituals.
The humpback whale migration to Oahu offers a unique opportunity for residents and visitors alike to witness these gentle giants in their natural habitat. Whale watching excursions abound, allowing observers to marvel at the acrobatic displays and hear the haunting melodies of these magnificent creatures, creating lasting memories of the annual pilgrimage to Hawaii's welcoming waters.
