Private Whale Watch

Charter your own whale watching experience with Hawaiian Adventures' Private Whale Watch aboard Callisto, a quick and agile center-console vessel built for up to 6 guests. This exclusive 2- to 2.5-hour tour puts your group first out of the marina with a dedicated captain, professional naturalist, and the freedom to linger wherever the action is.

Kona's calm, deep waters on the Big Island's leeward coast are home to humpback whales, beaked whales, pilot whales, spinner dolphins, and more. Your crew searches constantly for wildlife, and sightings are guaranteed — if you don't see a whale or dolphin, your next tour is 50% off.

Multiple departure times available throughout the day, with the early morning slot offering some of the best sighting conditions. Complimentary cold beverages included. Ages 8 and up.

Tours depart from Honokohau Harbor at 74-381 Kealakehe Parkway, Kailua-Kona. Boarding begins 15 minutes before departure. Arrive 30 minutes early for parking.
