Kona is renowned as one of the ultimate whale and wildlife destinations in the world. Its calm waters, dramatic coastlines, and abundant marine life create a perfect setting for eco-tours that are both exciting and educational. Tours typically depart from Honokohau Harbor, offering easy access to both near-shore and pelagic zones. In the near-shore area, visitors can encounter humpback whales, spinner dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, flying fish, and even surface-feeding manta rays. These waters provide an incredible opportunity for close-up wildlife experiences, making it ideal for families, nature lovers, and photography enthusiasts alike. The combination of accessible wildlife and breathtaking scenery ensures that each tour is memorable and enriching.
With a US Coast Guard offshore certification, Hawaiian Adventures Kona is able to reach the pelagic zone, which few tours can access. This expands the search for marine life to include pilot whales, beaked whales, sperm whales, spotted dolphins, whale sharks, and more. Tours typically last three to four hours, allowing guides to cover a wider range, spend more time observing the animals, and offer greater chances of encounters with whales and other wildlife. Every trip is designed to maximize the experience, providing guests with the opportunity to witness the diversity of Kona’s marine ecosystem and enjoy the natural beauty of Hawaii from the water.
