Whale watching cruises Sailing
along the beautiful Coast of the NorthShore and watching the giant humpback
whales is something you do not want to miss while visiting Hawaii. The 40-foot catamaran Ho'o Nanea is
the perfect boat for whale watching. It is just the right size to keep you
close to the ocean, but big enough to be a safe and stable viewing platform.
There are very few whale watching tours in Haleiwa and, as a matter of fact,
this is the only commercial sailing catamaran on the whole NorthShore.
The whales do not get frightened or disturbed by our boat because most of the
time we are under sail, and when we do motor, the small outboard engines are
very quiet and unobtrusive. Our underwater hydrophone lets you hear the
singing, clicking and moaning that goes on between the groups of humpbacks. It
is a truly amazing experience! Rate start at $70 a person / Cruise is 2.5 hours
