66-105 Haleiwa Road
Haleiwa, HI, United States

Experience the best deep sea fishing on Oahu’s North Shore with Hawaii Whale Tale Tours. Join Captain Matt, a seasoned Haleiwa fisherman, for an unforgettable Pacific adventure targeting Mahi Mahi, Ono, Ahi, and Pacific Blue Marlin. Enjoy stunning coastline views and possible sightings of dolphins, turtles, and seasonal humpback whales.
We provide quality gear, bait, and safety equipment. Please bring sun protection, snacks (no glass), and a camera.

Important Passenger Information:
• No glass items or bananas allowed on board.
• Fish distribution is at the captain’s discretion.
• Snacks/meals must be in safe, non-glass packaging.

Custom charters for beginners to advanced anglers. Five-hour pelagic trips include catching live bait and a 12-mile buoy run; bottom fishing targets snapper and jacks closer to shore. Sunset tours focus on relaxed fishing and views. Longer charters = bigger fish.

Age Policy: Ages 7+ for 5-hr trips; ages 5+ allowed on ≤3-hr tours—please contact the Captain.

Aloha!

The boat is a 25 foot coast guard boat - holds 6 people if you want to go on a long deep sea charter 4 people is comfortable 6 is doable but just know its a little tight.

The boat mainly keeps the catch however if time permits and we catch a nice mahi or two I will cut it up for you to have a nice dinner.  If you would like to purchase more of the fish caught it is available at market price. 

If you do one charter and have fun or want to try again I will discount your second charter.

Please understand the 2 hour charters are short and sweet if you want to have a better chance to catch a mahi or tuna please book a 4 hour plus tour.

Sunset tour is great for catching sunset views not the greatest for hooking up big fish but it has happened.

Theres only two rules have fun and dont throw up on the boat.

My charter is ran by me the owner so you get pride of ownership in the Captain I show up early leave late and try my best to hook up fish for you.  Aloha book now,.
