Q&A

Q: What should I wear for the sunset cruise? Is it cold out on the water?

A: Definitely pack a light jacket or a hoodie! It can get breezy once you're out on the water, especially as the sun sets. I'd recommend wearing comfortable clothes and maybe water shoes if you plan to walk around the catamaran. Don't forget sunscreen too, even if you think it might be cooler!

Q: Is this experience suitable for kids? What ages would enjoy it?

A: Yes, this cruise is great for kids! There's plenty of space for them to move around, and the on-board naturalist makes it fun and educational. Just keep an eye on younger ones since it's a boat. I brought my 8 and 10-year-olds, and they both loved spotting the whales and enjoying the snacks!

Q: How likely is it to actually see whales on this cruise?

A: It's a bit hit or miss! While sightings aren't guaranteed, the crew is great at finding spots where whales have been seen. I went last winter, and we saw several humpbacks breaching! Even if we hadn’t, the views of the coastline are stunning. Just keep your expectations realistic, and enjoy the ride!

Unforgettable Sunset Cruise on Big Island – Highly Recommend!

I just got back from the Sunset Cruise with the Whales and wow, it was amazing! The catamaran was super spacious, and we had unlimited drinks, which were perfect for the sunset views. We didn’t see any whales, but the staff made it fun with their commentary on marine life. Plus, the snacks were yummy! I think it’s a great gift for anyone who loves the ocean or needs a nice night out. Just be ready to take lots of pics!

Planning a Surprise Gift! Thoughts on the Sunset Cruise?

I'm thinking of getting this sunset cruise for my partner's birthday. They love the ocean and whales! Has anyone done this, and is it worth it? I’m a bit worried about the cost, but I think it’ll be an awesome experience. Also, do they allow for rescheduling if something comes up?
