About North Shore Catamaran Charters
North Shore Catamaran Charters is the oldest and most trusted catamaran sailing company on Oahu's North Shore, with over 40 years of experience operating out of Haleiwa Boat Harbor. Their spacious sailing catamaran offers a comfortable platform for whale watching, snorkelling excursions, sunset cruises, and private charters along the dramatic coastline between Kaena Point and Turtle Bay.
Seasonal whale watching tours run from December through March when thousands of humpback whales gather in Hawaiian waters to breed and calve. During the rest of the year, the focus shifts to snorkelling at pristine North Shore reef sites, swimming alongside green sea turtles, and relaxed sunset sails with drinks and pupus. The catamaran accommodates small to mid-size groups, and private charters are available for weddings, corporate events, and special occasions.
Four decades on the water have given North Shore Catamaran Charters an unmatched knowledge of local conditions, wildlife patterns, and the best spots on any given day. Their crew are seasoned sailors and watermen who grew up on the North Shore, and the reviews consistently highlight their professionalism and warm aloha spirit. For visitors who want to experience Oahu's ocean from the quieter, more scenic north coast, this is the go-to operator.
