Private Whale Watching and Fishing Charters on Oahu's North Shore

From the months of December thru April, whale watching on Oahu’s North Shore is second to none. The whales migrate to Hawaii from Alaska to have their baby calves in the warm tropical waters of Hawaii. They are an incredible sight to see, and the best way to see them is on a private charter boat. 

Bob Marlin Charters operates multiple times a day, catering to private groups to enjoy the beautiful waters of Oahu’s fabled North Shore. From their friendly staff, comfortable boat, and knowledge of the ocean, you are guaranteed to have an amazing time with them. Bob Marlin Boat

In the summer months when there are no whales in Hawaii,  Bob Marlin Charters focuses on their Fishing Charters. They do operate the fishing charters year round as well. You can expect to catch big game fish such as Marlin (hence the name Bob Marlin),  Ahi, Mahi Mahi, Ono (wahoo), and other large pelagic fish. Half and Full Day fishing charters are available.
