Whale Watching Tour in Kona Hawaii
Whether you’re a nature lover, photographer, or just looking for a memorable Hawaiian experience, this tour offers the perfect mix of adventure and awe. With a smaller group size, you’ll enjoy a more intimate and personal encounter with some of the ocean’s most magnificent creatures.
From December through April, the warm Hawaiian waters come alive with migrating humpback whales—breaching, tail-slapping, and singing their incredible songs beneath the sea. Don’t miss your chance to join us on this unforgettable journey!
Every winter, thousands of humpback whales migrate to the warm waters of Hawaii—and there’s no better way to witness this incredible sight than with a Reel Escapes Whale Watching Tour in Kona, Hawaii.
Set out on a comfortable, well-equipped boat with our experienced captain and crew as you search for these gentle giants. Along the way, you might also spot playful dolphins, sea turtles, and other marine life while soaking in Kona’s stunning coastline views.
