Ohana Sportfishing operates private charters out of Dana Point, California aboard the 40' Cabo Yacht "OHANA." The business focuses on private sportfishing and coastal wildlife cruises, offering trips that range from short harbor tours to full offshore excursions. Trips include half-day and three-quarter-day coastal fishing, full-day Catalina/offshore fishing, San Clemente Island excursions, a dedicated Striped Marlin Special, and dolphin & whale or harbor cruises. Each charter is run as a private outing, allowing groups to tailor the experience for family gatherings, friends, or specialized fishing goals. Fishing itineraries target species such as tuna, shark, marlin, yellowtail, barracuda, bass, and rockfish using live bait and offshore techniques depending on the trip selected. The Striped Marlin Special is an eight-hour catch-and-release marlin hunt available from late July to October with food and beverages included. Ohana Sportfishing's offerings emphasize private access to local waters, flexibility in trip length, and a range of coastal and offshore destinations. The business lists private amphibious options for wildlife viewing — including dolphin and whale interactions and sunset harbor cruises — alongside memorial and commemorative cruises. Captains associated with specific trips include Capt Brett Crane and Capt Danny Pitkin for the Striped Marlin Special. Departure, trip duration, and species targeted vary by charter and are described in each trip listing.
