We recommend Captain Andy’s, whose captains are very knowledgeable about Humpbacks and keep track of all the whales’ hot spots off Kauai. Captain Andy’s, created in 1980, provides excursions on 65-foot yachts, catamarans and rafts.

Captain Andy’s 24-foot-rigid-hull inflatable rafts offer the best viewing. These fast rafts sit low on the water giving you what seems like a front-row seat to the whales.

Humpbacks are known to approach boats and even swim under them. However, Hawaii does have a “100-yard minimum” law to ensure boats steer clear of these endangered species. 

In addition to Humpback whale watching, all of Captain Andy’s vessels allow for Humpback whale listening. Equipped with hydrophones, passengers can hear the whales’ songs that often last 20 minutes and carry 20 miles. Because males often end up wrestling, many now think these amazing sea animals are screaming threats, not singing love songs.
