Whale watching season on Oahu is typically from December to May when the humpback whale, or kohola, come to the warm waters to breed and give birth to their new calves.
Here are the best locations for trying to catch a glimpse (zoom in on the horizon to see ours):
๐Hanauma Bay or Lanai Lookout at sunrise
๐Most beaches on the southeast side of the island
๐Makapuu Lighthouse
๐Scenic overlooks near Leahi Diamond Head
๐ณ Additionally, booking a whale watching tour will give you the best opportunities and at a very safe distance. We caught some on our boat ride back from snorkeling.
๐ญSuggested equipment includes high powered binoculars, mirrorless/DSLR camera with telephoto lens or equipment provided by tour guides. Newer iPhones and Galaxy devices might provide enough zoom to capture these amazing animals.
