The fleet
Two boats, one coast.
The Tortuga is our 38′ charter — shaded, steady, and the boat behind every reef trip, sunset cruise, fireworks run and whale watch. The Waiopai is a 43′ tournament Hatteras built for one thing: putting you on pelagics offshore.

Tours to choose from
What should I bring?
Sunscreen, a hat, soft-soled shoes and whatever you want to eat and drink. Rods, tackle, ice and licenses are aboard.
Do I keep the fish?
You take what your family will eat, filleted at the dock. The rest goes to the crew and the auction, which is how charter boats work here.
What if the weather turns?
If the captain calls it unsafe we reschedule or refund in full. No arguing about it at 5am on the dock.
Is this good for kids?
The 3-hour Tortuga trips and the sunset cruise, yes — children under 12 are $40 on the sunset run. A full day offshore is a long time in open water for anyone under ten.
When is whale season?
Whale watching runs from December 15 through April, when the humpbacks move through the channel.

What guests say in Waikiki.
Captain put us on uku within twenty minutes of leaving the slip. My daughter reeled her first fish and the crew filleted everything at the dock.
Danielle R. · Ultimate Fishing TourBooked the sunset cruise on our anniversary. Two hours of gold light, calm water and nobody rushing us back in. Worth every dollar.
Marcus T. · Sunset CruiseWeather looked marginal and they called us the night before with options instead of just cancelling. Rescheduled for Thursday and we got a marlin strike.
