We went on a two hour whale watch yesterday afternoon. The crew was excellent. Someone sat with my 7 and 9 year old with whale models and provided them about 5 minutes of education about whales. We were on one of the large boats and it was very nice. Saw plenty of whales and spinner dolphins. More

We had two great experiences with the Pacific Whale Foundation. The first was a "Molokini Wild Side" snorkeling trip. The two snorkeling spots were great - lots of fish and several turtles. The boat used on this particular trip is small - only about 40 people, and heads out past the reef for a scenic view of lava flows down... More

Overall it was a great experience. I did think it was a bit pricey and the boat is big with lots of people. The staff did seem very knowledgeable and helpful in pointing out where the whales were located. I would recommend this company if you are wanting a mild and relaxing cruise. More

We did a whale watch close to sunset hours with Pacific Whale Foundation last January in Maui . The operation was good. Their boats are really impressive catamarans, and the whole operation is very organized. Boat driver was very aware of close-by whales and the highlight of the tour was the mic drop in the water, to hear the whales... More

Whale Watching with Pacific Whale Foundation was fantastic! We literally saw all the “brochure shots” right in front of us. We could clearly see the barnacles on a humpback that breached immediately in front of us, and then did it again even closer! The trip was so wonderful that we went again the second day (only later did we read... More

We had a nice boat ride with a few whale sightings, but definitely preferred Hawaii Ocean Rafting for better whale sightings and closer sightings and attention that they gave to us. The tour guides brought their friends along on the trip and spent more time hanging out with them than their many passengers. Hard to see whales because of the... More

We just got back from our trip to Hawaii and went out on a morning whale cruise with Pacific Whale Foundation. The boat was nice but very crowded. It was difficult for our 2 year old to see. The crew asked that small children be moved to the front but in the excitement of whale spotting, it didn't always happen... More

My friend and I booked a snorkeling trip with the Pacific Whale Foundation after doing research on a few different outfitters, and we were not disappointed! The boat is a very nice size (spacious, multiple decks), and the guides were verynice and incredibly knowledgable. GIven the time of year, we saw whales, spinner dolphins and also bottle-nose dolphins (apparently we... More

This was an excellent organization to do a whale watching cruise with. Our team that led the whale watch was very knowledgeable about the whales, where we would see them, and very competent at answering questions that came up. It is a non profit organization, so 100% of the proceeds go to research, etc. We were not disappointed! Excellent experience!... More
