About This Adventure

Join us for a 5 Hour Escape on the Water with our Experienced Crew!

Morning Escapes

At Reel Escapes Hawaii, we offer a variety of styles of fishing. Expect the opportunity to set the lines for trolling for big game, but we also use real and artificial bait for drifting and bottom fishing if the current is favorable. Reel Escapes wants you to have the experience of holding the tackle and fishing, along with the great views that come from fishing the deep blue waters of Kailua-Kona. We will consult with EVERY charter prior to departure to determine what each guest's goals are!

Afternoon Escapes

Join us on the water when there are fewer boats, beautiful sunsets and amazing fishing. These large pelagic fish are biting at all hours, so spend the morning sleeping in, going to the beach and touring around, but spend the afternoon with Reel Escapes on the water. We gather all the information from the morning charters and use it to our advantage in the afternoon.
