Oahu Whale Watching Tours

Experience Humpback Whale Watching in Oahu

See the most stunning marine life in their natural habitat on this amazing whale watching tour. Humpback whales migrate to the Hawaiian Islands during the winter months, mid-December to March, for the purpose of calving and mating. The warm inshore waters surrounding these islands offer the young whales protection from predators as they build up enough body fat for their 3,000-mile journey north.

Males reach 43 feet (14 m) and females 45 feet (15 m) in length and weigh 35 tons, on average. Males produce intricate songs during the mating season. Seeing these majestic animals and hearing their song is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

These acrobatic animals are known for breaching and slapping the water with their tails and pectoral fins. This type of whale can be found in South America, Alaska, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as a number of south Pacific islands, but one of the best places to view them up close is in the warm waters of the Hawaiian Islands.
