This Big Island Pelagic Whale Watch Tour by Boat lasts three to four hours and departs from Honokohau Harbor on the Kona Coast of Hawaii. The tour begins by exploring near-shore waters where participants can watch humpback whales during winter months, spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, manta rays, and flying fish. The boat is operated by a crew with a US Coast Guard offshore certification, allowing travel into the pelagic zone, which includes deep waters far from shore. In this pelagic zone, guests can watch pilot whales, false killer whales, sperm whales, beaked whales, spotted dolphins, whale sharks, and other marine life. The tour offers multiple departure times depending on the season: from March 24 to December 15, it starts at 8:30 in the morning; from December 16 to March 23, departures are at 7 AM, 11 AM, and 3:30 PM.
