Testimonials
Highly recommend the 2-hour whale watching tour. Don't want to make your expectations too high, but we saw 15 whales on our 2-hour tour, as well as a few breaches! The tour is low-key and has a local, down-to-earth feel, which is refreshing. Our captain had a real knack for finding whales and the crew was informative.
We had a great time aboard the Catamaran Kahanu. Actually got to see a whale up close and it was beautiful. Enjoyed the catamaran as well as Captain Lani and Emma. Would definitely recommend!

We had a fabulous time with Captain and Emma! If you want to experience a trip with a captain and folks who have all of the knowledge of Kauai and the coastline, in addition to a great tour and lunch-go with Catamaran Kahanu-hands down. They are not a commercial out of state or out of area company-Capt has been on the ocean here all of his life and knows his stuff! Not a packed boat of people-perfect trip!
