Excellent tour, super fun, perfect Zodiac-style boat to best see and experience the whales and other lovely creatures. Crew is knowledgeable, but not overly chatty so you can just enjoy the experience.
Kevin, the owner/ operator, has been doing this for years and grew up in the area. The crew was chill, the boat was perfect, we took turns riding on top in the "Captain's Chairs", and they were so safe and helpful getting us up and down the sling steps. They appear to love what they're doing!
Anyway, I could go on and on, but suffice it to say that I got on the very next tour after the original booked experience returned to the marina! Almost 4 hours out with Icean Outfitters, loved every minute.
We saw so many humpbacks, and the crew went above and beyond to make sure everyone could see everything. We also saw Galapagos sharks and large schools of smaller fish.
Such an experience! Take a light jacket, sunscreen, a hat that won't fly away in the wind and a bottle of water.
Join us aboard one of the fastest and smoothest rides on the North Shore for the Whale Watching and Marine Wildlife Tour. Our experienced crew will guide you to the best spots to see dolphins, shark, rays, sea turtles, and more. If you are here during Hawaii’s winter months, you may even see the mighty humpback whales on their annual migration (October - March). Our boats are fast and agile, allowing us to get to remote spots quickly. And with just 18 seats onboard, you get an intimate experience with the knowledgeable crew and captain.

Such an amazing experience! Captain Kevin is very knowledgeable and shares so much about the whales and other creatures of the sea. We saw several whales splashing and fin slapping. Kevin showed us the area that he takes snorkels out to snorkel with sharks. A few sharks started swimming by the boat. Simply incredible. If you find yourself in Haleiwa, or anywhere on Oahu you’ve got to book your next adventure with Ocean Outfitters!! You won’t regret it!!!

Great trip. Saw a few whales and some sharks. The ride was a blast. Definitely needed motion sickness tablets for when the boat was still and floating.

The Marine Life Tour was such a fun little adventure. Sea turtles, tons of sharks, and the most perfect weather. Unfortunately it was too early to see any whales but Tayler was amazing: super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole thing even better. Honestly, the perfect way to start the day.
