Experience the natural and wild beauty Hawaii’s Big Island during this this whale watching speedboat tour!

Zoom along the sunny Kona coast of Hawaii’s Big Island in search of whales and other sea creatures during this whale watching speedboat tour departing from Kailua-Kona!

From December to March every year, more than 8,000 humpback whales make their way from their Alaska feeding grounds to the Hawaiian Islands to breed, birth, and nurse their young. This phenomenon offers visitors the wondrous opportunity to catch a glimpse of these awe-inspiring creatures in their natural habitat, and there is no better place to whale watch from than the pristine waters surrounding the Big Island.

Your Hawaii island whale watching adventure begins by searching for humpback whales and other sea creatures, such as spinner dolphins, pilot and sperm whales, manta rays, and sea turtles, that call the waters around Hawaii Island home! Once the captain spots whales, he will carefully position the boat to give you the best view of these inspiring creatures while the crew shares their knowledge about Hawaii’s marine life to enhance your Big Island whale watching experience. The great thing about being on a speedboat tour, is not only will the ride itself be thrilling, but the boat will be able to cover more territory at a faster pace than other boats, giving you more opportunities for whale watching and taking in more of the beautiful Kona coast! In between the whale spotting, the crew will serve you complimentary water, juice, and light snacks for your enjoyment.
