We did a private whale watching tour with Mana Cruises and had a fantastic experience. There were six of us, and JJ was our captain—he did an excellent job finding whales, especially considering it was toward the end of the whale season in Oahu. We were really grateful to still get such great sightings. JJ was knowledgeable, professional, and clearly knew where to look. The boat had water and juice available, but honestly, we didn’t even try the snacks because we were too busy watching for whales the entire time. Overall, a memorable experience and a great way to see whales up close in a more personal setting. Highly recommend Mana Cruises and JJ if you’re looking for a quality whale watching tour.
Aloha Catie! Great to hear what an amazing time you had on the Venture Boat with Captain JJ! Thrilled the whales came out to give you forever memories. We hope to see you again next season. Mahalo nui - The MANA Crew
