The VENTURE Boat from MANA Cruises is perfect for exploring the nearshore waters of Ko Olina and West Oahu. Our crew consistently cruise and fish within 1-2 miles from shore in depths of 10 feet to 100 fathoms.  We run 2-6 poles at a time and have two active anglers at a time. 

Aboard the VENTURE Boat we focus on nearshore fishing, light tackle trolling, bottom fishing, novice fishing, snorkeling, wildlife viewing, swimming and having fun - perfect for the whole family!  

We offer Private Charters for up to six guests. 

With our seasoned captains learn about local fishing technique, lures, ocean safety and more. Based on your experience, and general circumstances - most trips spend time light tackle trolling and bottom fishing.  

Though we practice catch and release for most fish caught, taking your catch home is a possibility based on legal limits and the Captain's discretion.  To protect and care for our reef we do often return all bottom fish back to the ocean. 

Keep an eye on the water as ocean life can be found at anytime, anywhere. We may get a visit from Hawaiian Spinner Dolphin, Humpback Whales (seasonally), Bottlenose Dolphin and even Flying Fish.

Aboard our 32' Sport Catamaran, you'll experience the perfect blend of adventure and comfort. Our Fish + Snorkel charters provide a fantastic option to enjoy a little bit of both activities (gear provided), offering fun for the entire family!

For comfort, our vessel includes an onboard toilet, Hawaiian chips, snacks, water, juices, and coconut water. Extra cooler storage and ice are available for guests to bring additional food and drinks.  

We may catch: Yellowfin Tuna (Ahi), Wahoo (Ono), Dorado (Mahi Mahi), SkipJack Tuna (Aku), White Trevally (Papio), Blue Trevally (Omilu), Goat Fish (Weke), Triggerfish (Humu) and various other types of pelagic and reef fish. 

**The VENTURE Boat is not a "deep sea" charter boat. Marlin and Larger Pelagics can be fished for aboard other vessels
