Prince Kuhio Tours, LLC operates out of Honolulu, Hawaii, offering a variety of small-ship cruises and coastal experiences around Oahu. The company specializes in whale watching, sunrise breakfast cruises, scenic coastal sails, BBQ lunch outings, sunset dinner voyages, and firework-viewing dinners. Many cruises feature freshly prepared meals and beverages — including 100% Kona coffee for breakfast sailings — and gourmet lunches or dinners prepared by an onboard chef.
Whale watching trips run seasonally, with humpback sightings commonly reported from December through March, while other cruises are available year-round. Select departures sail from Kewalo Basin Harbor and proceed along Waikiki toward iconic landmarks such as Diamond Head. Guests can expect spacious open decks for viewing marine life like dolphins and sea turtles, relaxed atmospheres with soft music, and opportunities to photograph Hawaii’s coastline at sunrise or sunset.
Some scenic cruises offer BYOB options and a laid-back atmosphere for families, couples, and groups seeking a coastal perspective of Honolulu. The fleet’s itineraries include short two-hour excursions up to longer dinner cruises timed with sunset and fireworks displays. Safety briefings and standard marine procedures are administered aboard each voyage.
