Set sail on the Hoʻo Nanea, the perfect catamaran for North Shore whale watching! She’s just the right size to keep you close to the action and stable enough to be a smooth, safe viewing platform for everyone on board. Unlike the crowded whale-watching scenes in Waikiki, the North Shore offers a peaceful, uncrowded experience where it’s just you, the open ocean, and the magnificent humpback whales of Hawaiʻi. In fact, the Hoʻo Nanea is the only commercial sailing catamaran operating on the North Shore – which means no flotilla of boats chasing the same whale. It’s a more personal, respectful, and awe-inspiring encounter with nature. As you sail along the coastline, keep your eyes peeled for massive tails, graceful breaches, and the occasional curious calf swimming beside its mother. Whether you’re a seasoned whale-watcher or brand-new to the magic of humpbacks, this is the ultimate way to experience their beauty—under sail, in the wild, and with the wind at your back.

Enjoy the beautiful lush valley and sandy bay from the pacific. Waimea valley being one of Oahus most sacred valleys that pours into its historical bay.
