As most of the other comments say, this is NOT a whale watching trip. But unless you check reviews and not just stars, youre likely to be disappointed.
The boat doesn't even go into deeper waters where a whale might be, unless the capt. spots something worth the detour. I absolutely would've paid more for the proper longer tour if I'd known.

It was a nice boat ride but that is all it was. We seen a few fish, but that was quite a let down. We did not see turtles or dolphins.

Nice simple outing but this should be titled Honolulu Coast Tour. It's just a short out and back with info about the history of Honolulu, not wildlife.

This is advertised as Whale Watch, Dolphins, Turtles and Sightseeing Cruise (winter only)
1 hr tour at $40. Saw no Whales, no Dolphins, a couple of Turtles but far away, Did see Fish Fish and lots of Fish. This is nothing but a sightseeing tour which btw was enjoyable. You are better off bonking a 2hr tour at double the price ($80 to $99) that guarantees you will see whales or your money back. Such tours have someone fallow the whales every morning therefor they know exactly where the whales are.

The tour is called "Whale Watch, Dolphins, Turtles and Sightseeing Cruise (winter only)" thus indicating that one amongst other purposes of the tour is to see whales. Moreover, the picture of the tour was of a giant whale, and since the tour is only available in winter, this also indicates the the purpose of the tour is to see a whale. However, when we arrive at the boat, the tour guide says that we might see a whale but this is not for sure, and that "this tour is not a whale tour". The boat only sailed close to Waikiki, and as such it was not even a possibility seeing a whale. If you want to see whales, I do NOT recommend this tour.

We only saw one group of fish, but the boat ride was fun!! The captains were funny and helpful. Overall, we were hoping to see more sea life.

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY-PAY MORE AND ACTUALLY GET TO SEE SEALIFE! We looked for awhile how long the tour was. It wasn't listed anywhere. Not in FAQs. Didn't get a response back as we booked night before. At first we loved the guide. He and his wife we educated and witty. But it became clear this was a terrible tourist trap quickly. I feel safe even calling it fraud. The title says whales, dolphins, turtles. But they seemed to just want to show us this wrecked boat with tiny fish around it that they fed (not sure if legally). We spotted whales not that far off, but he wouldn't even got within a half mile. They made ZERO effort to find dolphins. Saw whales in the off again on way back. He could have easily cruised out them. They weren't far from shore. But instead he said we needed to get back for next group. This isn't something that can be blamed on bad luck. They made no effort. And we're back to dock within 90 mins
